Shopping tips
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their stability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years, the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
- They protect against demagnetization induced by external magnetic influence effectively,
- In other words, due to the metallic silver coating, the magnet obtains an stylish appearance,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is impressively powerful,
- Neodymium magnets are known for very high magnetic induction and the ability to work at temperatures up to 230°C or higher (depending on the shape),
- Thanks to the flexibility in shaping and the capability to adapt to individual requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in various configurations, which increases their functional possibilities,
- Wide application in modern technologies – they serve a purpose in computer drives, electromechanical systems, healthcare devices and other advanced devices,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they provide high effectiveness, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to physical collisions, we recommend in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks , and at the same time strengthens its overall strength,
- Magnets lose pulling force when exposed to temperatures exceeding 80°C. In most cases, this leads to irreversible performance loss (influenced by the magnet’s profile). To address this, we provide [AH] models with superior thermal resistance, able to operate even at 230°C or more,
- They rust in a moist environment. For outdoor use, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of rubber,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the limitations in manufacturing complex structures directly in the magnet,
- Health risk due to small fragments may arise, especially if swallowed, which is notable in the health of young users. Moreover, small elements from these products might complicate medical imaging once in the system,
- High unit cost – neodymium magnets are costlier than other types of magnets (e.g., ferrite), which can restrict large-scale applications
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what it depends on?
The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, calculated in the best circumstances, specifically:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
- having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
- with a smooth surface
- with no separation
- with vertical force applied
- in normal thermal conditions
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
The lifting capacity of a magnet is influenced by in practice key elements, from primary to secondary:
- 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.
* Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.
Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.
Neodymium magnets jump and clash mutually within a distance of several to around 10 cm from each other.
Magnets are not toys, youngest should not play with them.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. In the case of swallowing multiple magnets simultaneously, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to death.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.
Intense magnetic 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.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets are among the strongest magnets on Earth. The surprising force they generate between each other can shock you.
To use 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.
Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, they easily break as well as can crumble.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. Despite being made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of connection between the magnets, tiny sharp metal pieces can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.
