(OP)
Hello,
Is it possible to get two small permanent magnets (or 2x small magnets made up of a series of smaller magnets) that are equal in attracting and repelling so that they maintain a small gap between them but cannot come together and cannot pull apart.
Any advise please
Regards
Peter

No

RE: is this possible

No, it would take a complex assembly with active circuits in order to do this.  And even then there would be force limits to it.
