Shopping tips
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their stability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- They do not lose their magnetism, even after nearly 10 years – the loss of strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is among the best,
- Thanks to the glossy finish and nickel coating, they have an visually attractive appearance,
- They exhibit elevated levels of magnetic induction near the outer area of the magnet,
- With the right combination of magnetic alloys, they reach increased thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the structure),
- Thanks to the flexibility in shaping and the capability to adapt to individual requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in various configurations, which expands their usage potential,
- Key role in new technology industries – they are utilized in hard drives, electromechanical systems, clinical machines as well as other advanced devices,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They are fragile when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, it is advisable to use in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage while also enhances its overall resistance,
- They lose power at elevated temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent decline in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the form and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- Magnets exposed to wet conditions can rust. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we suggest waterproof types made of coated materials,
- Limited ability to create threads in the magnet – the use of a magnetic holder is recommended,
- Possible threat due to small fragments may arise, in case of ingestion, which is notable in the protection of children. It should also be noted that miniature parts from these products might hinder health screening if inside the body,
- In cases of tight budgets, neodymium magnet cost may not be economically viable,
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
The given pulling force of the magnet represents the maximum force, measured in a perfect environment, namely:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a polished side
- with zero air gap
- under perpendicular detachment force
- in normal thermal conditions
What influences lifting capacity in practice
Practical lifting force is determined by elements, by priority:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
- Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
- Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
- Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
- Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
- Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.
* Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap {between} the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets
Keep neodymium magnets away from the wallet, computer, and TV.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, etc. devices. They can also damage devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.
Magnets attract each other within a distance of several to about 10 cm from each other. Remember not to place fingers between magnets or alternatively in their path when they attract. Magnets, depending on their size, are able even cut off a finger or there can be a serious pressure or a fracture.
The magnet is coated with nickel. Therefore, exercise caution if you have an allergy.
Studies show a small percentage of people have allergies to certain metals, including nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
People with pacemakers are advised to avoid neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
Neodymium magnetic are delicate and can easily crack and get damaged.
Neodymium magnets are delicate as well as will shatter if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. They are coated with a shiny nickel plating similar to steel, but they are not as hard. In the case of a collision between two magnets, there can be a scattering of small sharp metal fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is essential.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
While Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures, it's important to note that the extent of this effect can vary based on factors such as the magnet's material, shape, and intended application.
Avoid bringing neodymium magnets close to a phone or GPS.
Strong fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their power can surprise you.
To handle magnets properly, it is best to familiarize yourself with our information beforehand. This will help you avoid significant harm to your body and the magnets themselves.
Magnets are not toys, children should not play with them.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. They can be a significant choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing significant injuries, and even death.
