Penn 525 Mag (magnets)

[Splythy]

Alreet lads. Just had my 525 apart to rinse it out and on opening it up I've found 3 of the magnets have fallen out of their sockets and stuck together. I've read someone's older post about just glueing them back in put do they not have to go back in a correct order and is it advisable to just 'glue' them back into place?

Cheers

Na, just hoy them back in.

[Splythy]

They won't go back in m8, the magnets are too strong, they just fire themselves out and stick back together...

[Cod,cod,cod!]

You've got to glue them back in mate.

Try putting them back upside down so they don't stick together. If you still have problems i will help you as long as you don't live to far from Sunderland.

see wot size there are mate and you can buy new ones off ebay pity cheep

neodymium magnets are wot there a called

Am pretty sure the ones that have fell out are fine so I don't think I need new ones, just really need to know if they have to go in in a certain order (facing: north, south, north, south)

Thanks

magnetic force expells from the north and atracts from the south side of a magnet so would have thought the south side should be facing the spool for the magnets to work

its like GCSE science all over again!

Claggy things.

I'm no scientist,far from it,but as far as i'm aware both sides of a magnet will have a magnetic pull towards a spool,as a spool itself has no magnetic force.It's would only become critical if the spool itself was made from magnetic
material.I have read articles where some tournament minded individuals have
experimented with magnetic polarity,turning one magnet one way and another another way(and in differing sequences!)but in general for fishing,when you are
not pushing things to extremes,i do'nt think it makes a blind bit of difference.

hi as far as im aware the mags go in -+-+ or +-+- i was told it doesnt matter which way you start as long as you alternate something to do with the push and pull of the mags themselves which slows the spool when slide themcloser or further from the spool and must be right as the spool isnt magnetic as its alloy

thats spot on they go back in pull/push/ or push/pull. there is sites on the net that tell you what way they go hope this helps

with the spool being non magnetic it must be the magnetic field around the magnets which helps slow the spool down but no idea how.but endurothumpers post is correct as just checked my penn torque

Told you i was no scientist
