We completely understand how frustrating this can be, and we truly appreciate your patience. To ensure we make things right, a member of our team will be in touch shortly to discuss how we can rectify this for you, but if you would prefer to reach out to us directly, don't hesitate to contact us via email at sales@magnetexpert.com or our free phone line on 0800 488 0288 (*there is no charge to call our team) Thanks again, Aine O'Hare Content Manager FIRST4MAGNETS

“The magnets I ordered do not magnetise on the same board that all the others I have, do magnetise. What should I do ?”

Helpful Report

Posted 8 months ago

Hi Irit, firstly, thank you for taking time to leave us a review, we appreciate any feedback and are always looking for ways to improve. We are sorry the magnets you ordered were not strong enough for your application. The magnets you ordered are ferrite disc magnets, also known as ceramic magnets. They are magnetised with their north and south poles on their opposite flat faces. Ferrite magnets have a high resistance to corrosion and demagnetisation and their great advantage is that they can operate in temperatures of up to 180 degrees Celsius. These magnets are ideal for craft making, model making and other non-technical applications where a really strong magnet is not necessary. Please be assured a member of our team will be in touch with you to suggest a better magnet for your application and solve this issue, but if you would prefer to reach out to us directly, don't hesitate to contact us via email at sales@magnetexpert.com or our free phone line on 0800 488 0288 (*there is no charge to call our team) Thanks again, Aine O'Hare Content Manager FIRST4MAGNETS

Hi Juanita, we can see from your order you purchased only steel discs - these are not magnets but made of a ferrous material that will be attracted to magnets. One of our team members will be in touch and more than happy to help you find a magnet fit for your intended application, you can also reach out to them at sales@magnetexpert.com or simply call 0800 488 0288 (*there is no charge to call our team).

“On their website they state that the N42 magnet is suitable for Wrenn and Hornby Dublo model locomotives. This may be true for some models but it didn't fit mine. I have subsequently found that different motor types within the range of model require different magnets. If they want to make this claim on the web they should state which models they magnet is suitable for.”
