What do magnets stick on?
They stick to other magnets or iron, cobalt and nickel.
Does steel tin and zinc stick to magnets?
Steel and tin are generally magnetic, meaning they are attracted to magnets. Zinc, on the other hand, is not magnetic and does not stick to magnets.
Do safety pins stick to magnets?
Yes, safety pins are typically made of steel, which is a type of metal that can be attracted to magnets. Therefore, safety pins will stick to magnets.
What type of metal does magnets stick to?
Iron and its alloys (e.g. steel) are attracted to magnets
Why do magnets stick on refrigerators?
Refrigerator doors are typically made of metal, which is attracted to magnets. Magnets have a magnetic field that interacts with the metal, causing them to stick to the surface. This allows people to easily display items like notes or photographs on their fridge.

Why does steel stick to magnets but alomanem doesn't?
Steel contains iron, which is ferromagnetic and can be magnetized. Aluminum, on the other hand, is not ferromagnetic but paramagnetic, so it is not attracted to magnets. This difference in magnetic properties explains why steel sticks to magnets but aluminum does not.
What force makes metal stick to a magnet?
It is magnetism. Remember, most metals don't stick to magnets. Iron (and steel), and cobalt and nickel do, but none of the other common ones do.

What can magnets pick up?
A 'tin can' is actually made of steel, which is a magnetic alloy of iron. There is sometimes a layer of tin (or zinc), electroplated onto the surface, so the name is misleading. It is more properly a 'tinned' can as it is a steel can which has been 'tinned' to stop it from corroding.
What kind of materials do magnets stick to?
Magnets stick to materials that are ferromagnetic, such as iron, nickel, and cobalt. They can also stick to materials that are attracted to magnets, like steel. Materials like copper, aluminum, and plastic are not attracted to magnets.
Why does a magnet stick to stainless steel or to steel?
In general, magnets will stick to steel. There are many stainless alloy steels that are non-magnetic, however. Most stainless steels have a metallic crystal structure that gives them few or no magnetic properties.
Can a magnet stick to a wrench?
Yes, if the wrench is made of a ferromagnetic material like iron or steel, a magnet will stick to it. This is because ferromagnetic materials can be magnetized and attract other magnets.
Could forks stick to magnets?
No, forks are typically made of stainless steel which is not magnetic. Magnets will not attract or stick to forks.
