Talk:Flinders bar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is it correct to refer to the Flinders Bar as a "soft iron magnet"? The Handbook of Compass adjustment published by the US Department of Geospatial-Intelligence www.nga.mil (at pages 2 and 15) refers to the need to ensure there is no residual magnetism in the Flinders bar. Perhaps more correct to call it a "soft iron bar"?
