Electromagnet For Physics Lab Educational
Product Code : JA-PLE-4145
The Electromagnet For Physics Lab Educational (SKU JA-PLE-4145) is a U-shaped mild steel electromagnet with a copper-wound bobbin on each limb, which becomes a horseshoe magnet able to hold its iron keeper when a 4–6 V DC supply is connected. This U-shaped electromagnet for school physics lab work is listed in four sizes, and JaincoLab supplies it with a keeper and carrying hook for electromagnetism practicals.
Specifications
The electromagnet is a mild steel U-bar of circular cross-section fitted with bobbins of heavy gauge copper wire, with pole faces ground flat for good contact with the iron armature; it runs on 4–6 V DC and is listed in four length x bar diameter sizes.

Applications of the U-shaped electromagnet in school physics
Connected to a low-voltage DC supply, the electromagnet lets students see that a current in coils around a steel core produces a magnet whose poles depend on the winding direction, and whose attraction largely disappears when the current is switched off.
- Demonstrating the magnetic effect of an electric current in a coil
- Identifying the polarity of each pole from the winding direction
- Lifting the keeper and small loads by the hook to compare holding force at different currents
- Showing the field between the poles with iron filings or a plotting compass
