Pardon my ignorance, but what is the magnet aspect of this motor. Does it cling to metal surfaces?

This is not really a magnet. It is a little motor. We purchase it to build a bristle it for a science project

The external mass is used to vibrate the engine. They are the motors that are used in mobile phones to produce the vibration.

No, it does not cling. We glued it on a toothbrush head to make micro bugs. Nice little motor for the size. My kid passed his science project.

Magnet does not stick. It is made from aluminum. (btw, I am not the owner, I bought one and very happy with it :))

The drill has the power enough to work on metal as long as its not too thick/hard. The trick is using the right drill bit (for metal). Hope this help.

No magnet. Clings pretty tightly, though. It's a good product. Turns 360 degrees, and the typewriter makes it so you doon't have to constantly change screens.

The motor is magnetically coupled to the rotor so when something thicker was inside the pump head I think it would slip. As stated previously this pump must be primed which could be difficult with something thicker. I have never pumped anything but beer through mine.

Based on the comments above I assumed mine would be steel, but mine is not. The one I got is an alloy and a magnet will not stick to the housing. I'm very disappointed by this.

I put it in a metal hollow core door and it works fine for me. I've not had any problem with the magnets.

I am now afraid to answer no! But anyways, if the motor still runs, and one of the rollers won't move, the teeth on one of the plastic sprockets that turn the rollers from the motor may have completely broken off. For as much as they charge for these things, they should really consider making the sprockets metal. I use mine for hard to shave areas like knees, back of the knees, ankles, and feet. I use a safety razor for the rest.

I haven't used it on anything metal, but I really don't think it would have any problems doing any kind of job. So far mine has worked great for my needs.

This is a variable speed motor. I am very rough on the motor, and it's really taken a beating. I love it! I recommend getting the MinnKota 60 amp breaker as well to protect the motor.

Magnets don't have the same effect on aluminum, fun fact if you have enough aluminum a strong magnet will actually slow the movement down instead of a force to bring it together. If you were to drag a powerful magnet along a bar of aluminum there would be resistance, I believe its an electrical force but this is very old stuff for me I can't be sure.The top clip part however looks like stainless steel and magnets will most definitely work.

I'm not sure. I used the motor for a different purpose than to hang something. Sorry

The body for the motor is metal, the outer walls of the cylinder are metal, as are the cooling fins and the cylinder head. I can't imagine they would use anything else for the internals. I've only had to use it once, but it filled my SUV's tires on 18" rims surprisingly quick with minimal strain to my electrical system.

It does not pick up anything but ferrous metal. In order for it to work properly, I was told by the company it needs to make full contact with the item across the entire magnet area. This magnet will not pick up stainless steal or aluminum. We returned ours because it did not work properly.

I cannot tell from the text whether you are asking "which is it, metal or plastic?" or "which metal and/or plastic is it?" I cannot answer the second, so will do my best with the first. It appears to be non-conductive paint or plastic over a metal shell. I measure electrical continuity between the added weight screw thread (between the elongated cartridge mount holes) and the rear connector mounting. The metal is not iron; it does not attract a magnet. I hope this helps.

I used it for such a short while, I didn't try that- it cleans easily by hand, however. It is all stainless steel, so as long as you detach the motor it appears to be something that could be done.

The magnet is coated with thermoplastic polymer which is similar to the polymer used in the modern handgun. I use it with a bi-tone model, so it is polymer on metal and I have had no issues.
