In that paper I pointed to a table from a government site that explained the magnetic units. Before my Magnet Resource Page saw the light of day on Chip Center, the government redid their site. If it is still there I can't find it. Because I've been burned this way in the past, I've learned to snag a copy of the Interesting Stuff before it disappears from Cyber Space. Download this carefully done table of the units from the Electromagnetic Technology Division of Electronic and Electronic Engineering Laboratory of the National Institute of Standards and Technology .
Some magnets are so strong that they present serious hazards of one type or other.
Such as pinched or crushed fingers, freezing hazards from cryogenics, or potential health effects the causes of which are still unclear or unknown. Also some magnets are prone to shattering. You are the person most responsible for your own safety. Go Back To Bob's Home Page.
