What does pull force mean?

Pull force, also known as magnetic pull, is a measure of the strength of a magnet's magnetic field. It is the force that a magnet can exert on an object made of ferromagnetic material, such as iron, nickel, or cobalt. The pull force of a magnet is determined by the strength of its magnetic field and the size and shape of the magnet. Often measured in pounds or kilograms, the pull force is the force required to pull that magnet straight free from a thick steel plate. The pull force also tells you the limit of that magnet's holding power.Generally,...
