I'm sure this has probably been answered already, but the search is less than agreeable at the moment. I've been looking through the datasheets of a wide variety of alloys but am hoping someone here can help speed up my search. I need a material with a high magnetic permeability but very low...

Thanks Mike. Another question, would a better core/backbar material such as MuMetal provide any noticeable improvement?

Here is a basic image (hopefully working this time around) of what I am trying to accomplish. Two electromagnets, one fixed in position, the other below (and kept from dropping completely out) holding a weight (the 1lb is just to show it is a weight). The idea is for both electromagnets to be...

Thanks, but I read that thread first before posting. I'm not worried so much about the shielding properties, I just want to make the N pole as strong as possible at as great a distance as possible. It seems like having the high permeability shielding to provide the "path of least resistance"...

Sorry, should be fixed now

At this point I have a cylindrical dipole electromagnet with a 1008 steel core and encasement (no exposed copper wire, just a steel cylinder). I imagine the magnetic field looks like what I have depicted in Figure A below. My question is this: Is there a way to reconfigure the magnet so that...
