No, brass and aluminum do not make good magnets. Both materials are non-magnetic, meaning they cannot be magnetized or attract magnets. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, while aluminum is a pure metal, and neither exhibits magnetic properties. For effective magnetism, materials like iron, cobalt, or nickel are typically required.
What else can I help you with?
What does a alnico magnet do?
I guess Al (aluminium), Ni (nickel) and Co (cobalt).
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.
How effective is brass a conductor of electricity?
It isn't. In terms of volume, silver is best, followed by copper, then aluminum. Aluminum is 2X better conductivity by weight than anything else. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, and their proportions can be varied to create different brasses. So if you wanted to make brass highly electrically conductive, you would add a lot of copper and silver to it. There is a common brass known as "electrical brass" that is commonly used for electrical conductor parts, and it's chief virtues are that it can be worked easily and is not expensive.
Why are pins made of brass?
Most are, but they can be made of other things. Most keys are made of a base of brass and then can be plated with nickel. Some key manufacturers use aluminum to make light weight keys. Some other common materials are nickel silver and steel.
What type of metal is used to make pans?
Common metals used to make pans are stainless steel, aluminum, cast iron, and copper. Each type offers different benefits in terms of heat conductivity, durability, and weight.
What does a alnico magnet do?
I guess Al (aluminium), Ni (nickel) and Co (cobalt).
What is a good tongue twister about magnets?
Milky magnets makes marrow more meaty :P

What do copper and zinc together make?
Copper and zinc together create brass, a metal alloy known for its yellowish color and resistance to corrosion. Brass is commonly used in plumbing fixtures, musical instruments, and decorative items.
What materials are used to make a gun?
Depending on the guns- steel, brass, aluminum, copper, nickel, other metals, wood, and various plastics.
Why is brass not used for electrical wiring?
Brass has high electrical resistance compared to other metals like copper and aluminum, making it less efficient for conducting electricity. Copper and aluminum are preferred for electrical wiring due to their excellent conductivity and cost-effectiveness.
Is sterling silver the best heat conductor out of copper sterling silver brass aluminum and silver?
No, sterling silver is an alloy containing copper to make the metal stronger. Thermal (and electrical) conductivity is highest to lowest as follows: Silver, sterling silver, copper, aluminum, then brass. The latter is an alloy of copper and zinc.
What are 2 types of metals used to make wind chimes?
Many metals are used to make wind chimes, and each creates a unique and different sound. Some common metals found in wind chimes are brass, aluminum and steel. However, like I said, there are several more, and a wind chime can be made out of almost anything-- what you make it with determines what unique sounds you'll hear when the chime plays.

From which other metals - apart from iron - do they make nails?
Some nails are made of copper or brass. Also, some nails are galvanized to protect them from rust. There are also aluminum nails--they're used with vinyl siding and aluminum trim coil.
Is aluminum good for keeping drinks warm?
aluminum is a netrual substance it doesnt make liquid any warmer or colder
What is the difference between an alnico magnet and ferrite magnet?
The term alnico is derived from the names of three metals, aluminum, nickel, and cobalt, which can be used to make an alloy that has useful magnetic properties. Ferrite is a form of iron. Alnico magnets are more powerful and more expensive than ferrite magnets.
