Pull Between a Disc Magnet and a Flat, Ground Mild Steel Plate (approximate)

This tool calculates the approximate pull between a disc magnet and a flat ground mild steel plate that the magnet is in contact with. All distance units must be in inches. Pull calculations are only approximate to +/- 20%

Inputs	Magnet 1	Magnet 2
Diameter			Distance can be input in any units of measure as long as they are consistent to each other.
Length*
Br (Gauss)			Must be entered in gauss units.
Pull (ounces)
Pull (pounds)
Pull (grams)

*This is the orientation direction (the magnetic field flows through this direction)
