An improved high energy product radially oriented toroidal magnet is made from an iron cylinder toroid by a method including the steps of: (A) sandwiching the iron cylinder toroid between two disc toroids of a superconductive material at a temperature above the transition temperature of the superconductive material at which temperature the superconductive material does not have superconducting properties and therefor cannot affect the magnetic state of the iron toroid, (B) aligning the iron radially with a small applied field so that flux lines go through the toroidal magnet in a radial direction and in response to which the magnetic dipoles of the iron align themselves with those flux lines, (C) cooling the superconductive material to below the transition temperature of the superconductive material thereby trapping magnetic flux in the iron cylinder toroid, and (D) removing the small applied field from the iron cylinder toroid that does not affect the radial magnetization of the iron as the radial magnetization of the iron is now sustained by the superconducting toroid.
