To find the circumference of a circle, you can use the formula:

\[
C = \pi \times d
\]

where \(C\) is the circumference and \(d\) is the diameter of the circle.

Given that the diameter of the magnet is 2 inches, we can substitute that value into the formula:

\[
C = 3.14 \times 2
\]

Now, calculate the circumference:

\[
C = 3.14 \times 2 = 6.28
\]

Thus, the circumference of the magnet is

\[
\boxed{6.28} \text{ inches}
\]
