Most magnetic alloys are based on one or more of the following:
- iron
- nickel
- cobalt
High field strength modern alloys also contain rare earth metals.

Can magnets lift up things?
Magnets are better used in lifting hot metals. Lifting magnets are the type of magnets that are used to lift high temperature magnetic materials.
Are magnets metal?
Some magnets are metal. Not all magnets are metal (though I can't offhand think of any magnets that don't at least contain metal), and not all metals are magnets.
Do magnets attract all metals?
No. Magnets do not attract gold, silver, aluminum, brass, copper or lead. Magnets will attract nickel and iron or steel.
What are the 3 pure metals which don't stick to magnets?
Copper, Gold, Silver, Aluminum, Zinc and many more.
Do magnets stick on all metals?
Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), Cobalt (Co) and some alloys are the only metals that respond to magnetism.
Can magnets lift up things?
Magnets are better used in lifting hot metals. Lifting magnets are the type of magnets that are used to lift high temperature magnetic materials.
What matierial makes magnets?
There are a range of metals which can be used to make a magnet.
What are 3 metals attracted to magnets?
The 3 metals attracted to magnets are : Iron Nickel & Cobalt
What does magnetism have to do with science?
magnets are used in physics and this shows us that metals are magnetic
How are magnets used to recycle metal?
They help separate magnetic metals such as iron and steel from non magnetic metals such as aluminium. Metals have to be melted down at different temperatures so it's essential the less dense metals are separated from 'heavier' metals. Using magnets is a way of doing this.
What metals are attracted to magnets on the periodic table?
Ferrous metals are attraced to magnets due to their IRON content.
What are metals that are attracted to magnets?
they are called conductive metals
Where can someone recycle ceramic magnets?
Industrial ceramic magnets otherwise known as large rotating drum magnets, are used by the metal scrap and recycling industries. The magnets are used to separate and process metals. If you are looking to recycle one of these magnets you can find a company that uses them for recycling.
What type of metals does a magnet repel?
Usually magnets attract any iron based metals. Magnets usually only attract or repel other magnets
What kind of metals are attracted to magnets or can be made into magnets?
Metals that are attracted by magnets or that can be turned into magnets are as follows: 1-iron 2-cobalt 3-nickel 4-steel (a compound not an element)
What metal is used in low melting alloys and magnets?
Several different metals can be used in magnets. Iron is perhaps the most common metal used in permanent magnets, but alloys such as Alnico (Aluminum, Nickel, and Cobalt) can also make very strong permanent magnets.
Which magnets are attracted to magnets?
Metals such as:Iron and SteelStainless SteelBrassZincCopperBronzeAluminumSilverGoldMercuryNickelMagnesiumHope this helps!
