Hello friend...
Soft iron core is used in electromagnets because they get easily magnetised/demagnetised when current is flowing or not flowing along the solenoid.
Frequent drops, impacts or high temperatures weaken it. A piece of iron, called a keeper, fits over the magnet's poles, helping it retain its magnetic strength.
