Applications of magnets in everyday life

Although we are often unaware of it, magnets are constantly present in our daily lives. Magnetic accessories are part of our everyday life. We can find them in very complicated devices such as our car engines and even in very simple processes such as using them to place warning notes on our fridges: the famous magnets that adorn most of our fridges.

Magnetic accessories can be found in our everyday life in the door of a fridge, in toys, and we even use them to orient ourselves, as they are present in compasses used to locate north. As we can see, these magnetic accessories are included in many everyday things, but we must not forget the importance they have for such important devices as those used for magnetic resonance imaging. Magnets can also be found in magnet therapy equipment to treat many types of ailments in the body, using magnetic fields. Magnets can also be found in everyday appliances, such as air conditioning coils or hearing aids, and popular household appliances such as televisions and radios.

Magnets are everywhere. Sometimes we see them directly and sometimes they are part of other devices in which it is more difficult for us to confirm their presence. But they are there.

At IMA we have a wide range of magnets and magnetic accessories for use in your home and workplace. From magnetic paper to steel-impregnated cardboard or plastic-coated magnets. But we also find other types of auxiliary tools that are used in various sectors, some of which we will see below.

Knife and tool holders are commonly used in workshops and factories, as they allow you to keep your material in order in small spaces and in holders that offer great security for frequently used utensils. For workshops or factories, but also kitchens, it is a very practical and safe utensil that can be held in place.

Another application of magnets in our daily lives can be found in magnetic brackets. This is an essential tool during soldering processes, for iron manufacturing and assembly, and allows us to achieve a perfect clamping of components at a fixed 90-degree angle. The arms of the bracket have ferrite magnets embedded in a non-magnetic housing which helps to reduce magnetic stray fields, and also helps to limit the spatter that can occur during soldering.

At IMA we have a wide range of magnet accessories that you can use at home or in your workplace. For your everyday life or your professional development.
