What are they?

A magnet is an object that has a magnetic field. The word magnet comes from the Greek "magnítis líthos" (μαγνήτης λίθος), which means "magnesian stone". Magnesia is an area in Greece where deposits of magnetite have been discovered since antiquity.

Magnets are made of special alloys that have been found through research to create increasingly better magnets. The most common families of magnet materials today are ones made out of Aluminum-Nickel-Cobalt (Alnicos), Strontium-Iron (Ferrites, also known as Ceramics), Neodymium-Iron-Boron (Neo magnets, sometimes referred to as "super magnets"), and Samarium-Cobalt. (The Samarium-Cobalt and Neodymium-Iron-Boron families are collectively known as the Rare Earths.)

Modern magnet materials are made through casting, pressing and sintering, compression bonding, injection molding, extruding, or calendering processes

Permanent magnets emit a magnetic field without the need for any external source of power

There are various different types of permanent magnet materials, each with their own unique characteristics. Each different material has a family of grades that have properties slightly different from each other, though based on the same composition.

 

Which are the strongest magnets?

The most powerful magnets available today are the Rare Earths types. Of the Rare Earths, Neodymium-Iron-Boron types are the strongest. However, at elevated temperatures (of approximately 150C and above), the Samarium Cobalt types can be stronger than the Neodymium-Iron-Boron types (depending on the magnetic circuit).

How do you measure the strength or power of a magnet?

Most commonly, Gaussmeters are used to measure the strength of a magnet. Gaussmeters measure the strength in Gauss.   

What are Rare Earth Magnets?

Rare Earth magnets are magnets that are made out of the Rare Earth group of elements. The most common Rare Earth magnets are the Neodymium-Iron-Boron and Samarium Cobalt types

 How do they work?

Questions that often come up are, "How do magnets work?

Those are good questions, and deserve a good answer.  However, did you know that there is a lot about magnets at the atomic level that isn't known yet?

 

   

 

A magnet is any object that has a magnetic field. It attracts ferrous objects like pieces of iron, steel, nickel and cobalt. In the early days, the Greeks observed that the naturally occurring 'lodestone' attracted iron pieces. From that day onwards began the journey into the discovery of magnets.
Magnets are made in various shapes and sizes depending on their use. One of the most common magnets - the bar magnet - is a long, rectangular bar of uniform cross-section that attracts pieces of ferrous objects. The magnetic compass needle is also commonly used. The compass needle is a tiny magnet which is free to move horizontally on a pivot. One end of the compass needle points in the North direction and the other end points in the South direction.

The end of a freely pivoted magnet will always point in the North-South direction.

The end that points in the North is called the North Pole of the magnet and the end that points South is called the South Pole of the magnet. It has been proven by experiments that like magnetic poles repel each other whereas unlike poles attract each other.

Magnetic energy stimulates blood travel at an accelerated pace which in turn fully oxygenates the blood cells. This oxygen enriched blood supply and enhanced circulation causes blood vessels to dilate, allowing the injured tissue to receive additional oxygen and nutrients via the bloodstream, thus accelerating the healing progress.

Why are Best Friend Magnetic Products better than other magnetic therapy products available.?

 At Best Friend you know we have  over 20 years experience in providing a comprehensive range of products to give you relief from pain and discomfort. 

We have invested in extensive research and development to ensure you get a high quality product with a  money back guarantee.

Best Friend Magnetic Products are Australia and New Zealand's largest maker and supplier of Magnetic Pain Relief Products and now through the Internet we are able to offer our proven products to the World.

Reference to the use of magnets in healing date back to ancient Rome, Greek and Chinese civilizations and today there is a growing amount of both clinical and anecdotal evidence from scientific experts of how both humans and animals are responding miraculously to medical magnets.

Magnetic therapy is a non-invasive treatment method with a very high success rate. The results of studies have shown that 90% of users experienced relief within two to four days from pain and soreness with no negative side effects on the body. Particularly noticeable was the effect on improving back and shoulder problems and pain in the legs and hips.

Best Friend Magnetic Products have a large range of magnets available for not only yourself but your pets too.

If you've exhausted traditional methods of treating your body or you simply don't want to risk the potential side effects of many of today's prescription medications, try magnetic therapy. 

You've got nothing to lose but your aches and pains!
