Magnetizing metal patches
Magnetizing metal patches
(OP)
I would interested to know if there are industrial machines out there that are able to magnetize strips of metal.
The end objective is to have production teams use theses as patches where steel has worn through while waiting for a more permanent patch to be made / or replacement, by the maintenance team.
Many thanks for your help out there

If not, you mention permanent magnets. Is it possible to buy sheets of permanent magnet and cut them up in strips of metal with an iron worker? If yes, where could I get the best value?
Thx

RE: Magnetizing metal patches
As the usual flow rates can be anywhere from 100 tons per hour to 500 tons per hour, even a small hole will rapidly create a leak - thus leading us to have to stop the equipment and wait for a welder to get set up to weld a patch. Production is lost in the meantime.
I have contacted buymagnets.com and will purchase a few ceramic magnets (0.125 x 6 x 10) grade 8 to see if it can work. I'm pretty confident it should work. Delivery is in a week. I'll post feedback if any good. Do prompt me if I don't...
