Swivel Stand for Bar Magnet
Model Number: MTME-04
The Swivel Stand for Bar Magnet is a sturdy laboratory support designed to hold a bar magnet securely while allowing it to rotate freely about a pivot. Micro Technologies supplies the stand with a strong stable base, vertical spindle, and pivot system, enabling smooth and controlled movement of the mounted magnet. The arrangement allows the bar magnet to respond naturally to magnetic fields, making the stand useful for experiments involving magnetic direction, alignment, attraction, repulsion, and other magnetic phenomena.
Product Specification
The Swivel Stand for Bar Magnet is a practical laboratory accessory designed to support a bar magnet while allowing it to rotate freely in the horizontal plane. Its pivoted arrangement provides a convenient method for observing how a magnet responds to external magnetic fields and nearby magnetic objects.
The apparatus is constructed with a strong, stable base that helps keep the stand securely positioned during experiments. A vertical spindle extends upward from the base and supports the pivot mechanism used to hold the bar magnet.
Micro Technologies supplies the stand with a carefully arranged pivot system that allows smooth movement of the mounted magnet. Reducing unnecessary resistance at the pivot helps the magnet respond more readily to magnetic forces, improving the visibility of directional changes during experiments.
When a suitable bar magnet is placed in the holder, it can rotate about the vertical axis. This arrangement can be used to investigate the natural directional behaviour of a freely suspended or pivoted magnet and its response to another nearby magnet.
The stand can also support experiments involving magnetic attraction and repulsion. Bringing another magnet toward the mounted bar magnet from different directions allows changes in orientation and movement to be observed directly.
Another useful application is the investigation of magnetic-field direction. Because the supported magnet can rotate freely, its orientation can provide a visible indication of the resultant magnetic field acting on it under suitable experimental conditions.
The stable construction, simple mounting arrangement, and freely rotating pivot make the Swivel Stand a useful accessory for bar magnet and magnetism experiments requiring controlled movement and clear observation.

FAQs
What is a Swivel Stand for Bar Magnet used for?
It is used to support a bar magnet while allowing it to rotate freely, enabling experiments involving magnetic alignment, field direction, attraction, repulsion, and related magnetic phenomena.
How does the swivel mechanism work?
The magnet is supported on a pivot arrangement connected to a vertical spindle. This allows the magnet to rotate with minimal resistance when acted upon by magnetic forces.
Can the magnet rotate freely?
Yes. The stand is specifically designed to provide smooth rotational movement of a compatible bar magnet.
What is the purpose of the stable base?
The base keeps the apparatus stationary while the magnet rotates, helping prevent unwanted movement of the complete stand during observations.
Can it demonstrate magnetic attraction and repulsion?
Yes. A second magnet can be brought near the mounted magnet to observe attraction or repulsion and the resulting rotational response.
Can magnetic-field direction be investigated?
Yes. A freely rotating bar magnet tends to align with the resultant magnetic field acting on it, making the stand useful for directional magnetic-field investigations.
Can it demonstrate the directional properties of a magnet?
Yes. The pivot arrangement allows the mounted magnet to change orientation freely and demonstrate its directional behaviour.
Is a bar magnet included with the stand?
The stand is primarily supplied as a bar magnet support accessory. A compatible bar magnet can be supplied separately or as part of a complete configuration when required.
Does the stand require electricity?
No. The Swivel Stand operates entirely mechanically and requires no electrical power.
Is the stand suitable for different bar magnets?
It can be used with compatible bar magnets that fit securely within the supplied holder. Magnet dimensions should be checked when selecting a configuration.
How should the stand be maintained?
Keep the base, spindle, holder, and pivot clean and dry. Avoid bending the spindle or applying excessive force to the pivot, as smooth rotation is important for accurate observations.
Can Swivel Stands for Bar Magnets be supplied in bulk?
Yes. Micro Technologies can supply these stands in bulk for physics laboratories, universities, colleges, research facilities, scientific equipment distributors, and institutional procurement.
