No.
You should use a wire with the best electric conductivity (copper or silver) and wrap it around a (soft) iron core. The wire creates the magnetic field, the iron core concentrates it and turns into a magnet when a voltage is applied to the wire.
Iron has rather poor conductivity and malleability so is not suited as the coil of an electromagnet.

When you make a homemade electromagnet with wire and a nail and a battery does stripping the wire that is coiled around the nail make the electromagnet stronger?
Stripping the wire in a homemade electromagnet would not make it stronger. The number of coils and the current passing through the wire are the main factors that determine the strength of the magnetic field produced by the electromagnet. Stripping the wire would affect the conductivity and integrity of the coil, potentially reducing its effectiveness.

Does using thicker wire make a electromagnet more powerful?
The wire in a electromagnet is the conductive property transferring power. The thicker the wire the more power transferred to the electromagnet for a exponential amount of power.

Does the number of turns of wire make a difference to the strength of the electromagnet?
Yes, the number of turns of wire in an electromagnet affects its strength. More turns of wire create a stronger magnetic field because it increases the flow of current, resulting in a more powerful electromagnet.
Metal core wire and what are needed to make an electromagnet?
To make an electromagnet, you would need a metal core wire (such as iron or steel) and a power source, such as a battery or electrical current. The metal core wire is wrapped around a core material and the electricity passing through the wire creates a magnetic field around the core, resulting in the electromagnet.
What 3 ways can you make an electromagnet stronger?
Increase the number of coils in the wire, increase the current flowing through the wire, and use a stronger magnetic material for the core of the electromagnet.
How do you make an electromagnet field stronger?
To make an electromagnet field stronger, you can increase the number of coils in the wire wrapping around the core, increase the current flowing through the wire, or use a core material with higher magnetic permeability. These methods will help increase the magnetic field strength of the electromagnet.
How do you make an electromagnet with a rivet and a wire?
Wrap the wire around the rivet as many times as you can, and connect the ends of the wire to a battery.Turning on the electricity turns on the electromagnet. More turns of wire means a stronger magnet.See also related Wikipedia link.
What do you need to make and electromagnet?
To make an electromagnet, you will need a core material (such as iron or steel), insulated copper wire, a power source (such as a battery or power supply), and a way to connect the wire to the power source (such as a switch). Simply wrap the wire around the core material, connect the ends of the wire to the power source, and when current flows through the wire, it will create a magnetic field in the core, turning it into an electromagnet.
How did Bell use the electromagnet in the telephone?
He wound wire around it to make a tranformer.
How do you make a electromagnet stronger?
For a simple copper wire around iron nail electromagnet, increasing the number of rounds the copper wire makes around the nail will increase the electromagnet's strength. Also, increasing the voltage applied(adding a battery) will increase the magnetic field.
