Magnetic dampers
Product Code : SCL-PLE-10422
Magnetic Dampers from Lab Glassware Manufacturer are physics laboratory accessories used for demonstrating eddy-current damping, magnetic braking and non-contact resistance to motion.
Quick answer: Magnetic dampers use eddy currents induced in a moving conductor to oppose its motion without physical contact, letting students observe Lenz’s law and magnetic braking directly.

Visualizing Electromagnetic Induction
Because magnetic damping acts without physical contact, students can clearly see resistance to motion appear only when a conductor moves through a magnetic field, reinforcing Lenz’s law. This complements oscillation-based experiments using the Pendulum Ball (Iron, 25 mm) for comparing damped and undamped motion.
Frequently Asked Questions
