A device for the magnetic treatment of water and other liquids, having a pair of concentric tubular casings which are spaced from each other so as to form an annular treatment chamber. The inner casing contains an elongated magnet having two or more longitudinally spaced poles, and the intermediate casing is made of a magnetic material which serves to concentrate the magnetic lines of force within the annular chamber. The inner casing is supported within the intermediate casing by means of elastic, non-magnetic sleeves which are positioned over opposite ends of the inner casing and compressed between it and the inner surface of the intermediate casing so that the treatment chamber is rendered fluid-tight. A pair of apertures are provided in the opposite ends of the inner casing to permit fluid to flow into and through the annular chamber. In order to prevent the magnet from shifting axially relative to the inner casing and to prevent the inner casing from shifting axially relative to the sleeves, the apertures are deformed inwardly and outwardly so as to form locking ears between the apertures and the magnet and sleeves, respectively. The ends of the inner casing are flared outwardly so as to prevent the sleeves from sliding off the inner casing and to impart additional compression to the sleeves.
