Swing Magnetic Pen

SKU: swingpen

£8.00 ex. VAT

In stock

The Swing Magnetic Pen, manufactured in the shape of a pencil with a pocket clip and a built in Neodymium Magnet tip.
A Stainless Steel spring wire clip is located at the centre. The swing magnet pivots on the centre hold when you or attach a line to the pivot clip or hold the magnet.
The Neodymium Magnet located at the tip exhibits an attraction to magnetic minerals present within a nearby rock specimen. Consequently, it demonstrates a response when moved over a core sample or mineral specimen. The position of the pocket clip is modifiable to alter the balance angle as needed. The pen's body is crafted from aluminium. As such, the pen is very light but robust.

- Length: 118 mm
- Stainless steel pivot clip
- Aluminium body

The Swing Magnetic Pen is a great tool for geologists due to its light, robust design, pivot clip and ease of use. Additionally, we also offer a magnetic pen for geology with a plastic body instead which can be foundĀ HERE.
