A magnetically hard substance is one which can be permanently magnetised using a strong magnetic force. Steel is one such substance. (A magnetically soft substance can only be magnetised temporarily.)

It means that it doesn't lose its magnetism easily. Similarly, it isn't easy to magnetize in the first place.

How do you magnetize steel bar?

a steel bar is a magnetically susceptable material. if you apply a magnetic field through the steel bar, such as applying a DC current through a solenoid winded around it, it will become magnetized. Just rubbing a magnet against the steel bar will help align all the magnetic dipoles in a general direction for it to be considered a magnet.
