Spin-Polarised cylinders with and without axial magnetic fields are obtained as particular families of solutions of Einstein-Cartan gravity (EC).The first solution represents a spin-polarised cylinder in teleparallel gravity.The second solution is a magnetized solution representing a spin-polarised cylinder where the magnetic fields and spins are distributed along the infinite axis of the cylinder.Altough it seems that the first solution is less realist than the second it could be obtained by shielding the magnetic fields with a superconductor.The second solution is computed by taking into account the Ritter et al. experiment with the test spin-polarized mass to test spin dependent forces.Ritter experiment deals with a test mass with $>10^{23}$ spin polarized electrons which leads to a spin density of $10^{-4}gcm^{-1}s^{-1}$.
