Magnets

Does anyone have a procedure I could follow to re-energise magnetic bars. I know it can be done with car alternators so this should be fairly simple as I don't want to change the field polarity. Any ideas guys?
:roll:

I have heard that it can be done using Neodymium rare earth magnets, but I have not tried it myself.

Hi,
we have sent our exhausted bar magnets back to the distributor at Warchope in the past and they can re-magnetise them for a small fee.
They were great as they re-painted them, provided new spacers and metal keepers and new boxes. Still working well.
Cheers,

Thanks for that! I knew it could be done! I'll trace who the original suppliers were and hopefully they can provide a similar service.

Richard :D
