Igikoresho cyihuta-kurekura nikintu cyongeweho cyemerera gukora byoroshye kandi neza. Hamwe nuburyo bworoshye, abayikoresha barashobora kurekura byihuse gufata magnet kubintu byatoranijwe, bigafasha gukusanya hamwe kandi byihuse nta kibazo cyangwa ikibazo.
Igikoresho cyubatswe hifashishijwe ibikoresho biramba, byemeza kuramba no kwihanganira kwambara. Ibi bituma bikoreshwa cyane mubikorwa byinganda, ubwubatsi, cyangwa nibisabwa murugo.
Igikoresho cyo gutoranya magnetiki kiremereye kandi kigendanwa, cyoroshye gutwara no kubika. Igishushanyo mbonera cyacyo kandi cyemerera uburyo bworoshye bwo kuyobora no kugera ahantu bigoye kugera ahantu ibintu byuma bishobora kuba byaguye cyangwa bitagerwaho.
Iki gikoresho nikintu cyingenzi cyiyongera kubikoresho byose cyangwa ibidukikije byakazi aho ibintu byuma bigomba gukusanywa cyangwa gukurwaho neza. Imashini yayo ikomeye, igikoresho cyihuta-kurekura, kuramba, hamwe no gutwara ibintu bituma iba igikoresho cyizewe kandi cyingirakamaro kubikorwa bitandukanye no mubikorwa.
