Permanent magnets are permanent magnets because they retain their magnetism- they are hard to demagnetize. A screwdriver can be easily and permanently magnetized by stroking it along the length of a permanent magnet in one direction.<\/p>\n

Permanent magnetization can be achieved in a screwdriver by magnetic induction. This can be done by passing an electric current through a coil of wire wrapped around the shaft of the screwdriver. The coil must be oriented so that the screwdriver’s shaft is perpendicular to the line of current flow.<\/p>\n

How do you magnetize something permanently? <\/h2>\n

This is how you can create a permanent magnet. First, take two magnets and put one North pole and one South pole in the middle of the iron. Then, draw them towards its ends, repeating the process several times. Finally, take a steel bar and hold it vertically. Strike the end several times with a hammer, and it will become a permanent magnet.<\/p>\n

Most new, high-end screwdrivers are supplied already magnetised, but sometimes they can lose their magnetism. There are a number of ways you can use magnets to remagnetise a screwdriver, or magnetise one that was never magnetised in the first place.<\/p>\n
