Replacement Motor Magnets
by Philip Worsfold
Super Neo Replacement Motor Magnets for Hornby-Dublo and Wrenn 2- or 3-rail locos in addition to types for Triang and Trix.
Super Neo Motor magnets are simple to fit (no special tools required) and are unbelievably super strong. They are nickel plated to prevent corrosion, are supplied fully charged for life and are ready to use straight out of the packet, no keepers required. They significantly reduce armature current and heat and provide increased lower end pulling power and torque and can suddenly and simply bring back to life these much loved and treasured loco’s.
No more re-mags, which generally does not / will not last, wasting both your time and most of all, your money.
Typical measurable gains: 12v dc fed to motor with old magnet, current drawn 400ma or greater or > 4.8 watts. With a Super Neo Magnet fitted running at 12v dc, average current 250ma or 3 watts indicating a significant reduction in current and heat.
Current types available for Hornby-Dublo / Wrenn Tri-ang and Trix locomotives where noted.
