Gold (Ni+Cu+Ni+Au)

Gold magnets are Neodymium magnets that have been gold plated. These gold coated magnets are smooth and shiny in appearance. Gold coated magnets are aesthetically attractive and commonly used in art, fashion, decorative and advertising displays. Gold magnetic discs, blocks, rings and cylinders are all available on our website. These magnets have a thin layer of gold applied over the standard Nickel coat and are therefore slightly more expensive.

Magnets on a vertical surface (of 10mm thick steel) are generally able to hold around only 30% of the pull force listed in the product description. This is due to the effects of gravity and the lack of friction between the surface and the shiny magnet. Read More
