Rare Earth N52 Neodymium Keychain Gold & Silver Jewelry Test Magnet

Description

Proudly made in the USA! Instructions: Jewelry: A strong magnet helps in evaluating and identifying fake jewelry, but it is not fool proof. The magnet should at all times be the first test you perform on an unknown piece of jewelry. If there is any steel or iron present, the magnet will attract. These metals are found in jewelry where they are electroplated with gold or silver, but they’re going to never be present in top of the range jewelry (with the imaginable exception of clasps, which every now and then have steel springs inside them). It is very important note, then again, that not all fake jewelry will have these metals present because there are other non-magnetic metals that can be used as a base. Anything that passes a magnet test (no reaction from the magnet) can be scrutinized further the usage of other methods, such as doing an acid test.

The magnet insert is rated at 10 lbs (as with all magnets, this rating depends on the magnet mating to a smooth, flat, unpainted steel surface). These magnets have an excellent feel and are very sensitive. The brass casing protects the magnet from chipping and breaking. Comes with a split ring for easy carrying, and a protective vinyl cap. Dimensions are: 1/2″ diameter x 3/4″ tall head, 2-1/2″ overall length, 3/8″ diameter handle, 1/2″ diameter stainless steel split ring.
