Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.
Advantages
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (based on calculations),
- Magnets effectively protect themselves against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- By applying a reflective coating of nickel, the element has an modern look,
- They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Possibility of accurate machining as well as optimizing to defined requirements,
- Fundamental importance in future technologies – they are commonly used in data components, electric motors, medical equipment, and other advanced devices.
- Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Weaknesses
- To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore while using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Limited ability of creating threads in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is a housing - mounting mechanism.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?
- on a base made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
- whose thickness is min. 10 mm
- with an polished touching surface
- with total lack of distance (without impurities)
- for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- in stable room temperature
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
- Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under shearing force the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Health Danger
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Mechanical processing
Powder created during cutting of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Magnets are brittle
Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.
Sensitization to coating
A percentage of the population experience a sensitization to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in an allergic reaction. We suggest wear safety gloves.
Operating temperature
Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Safe operation
Handle with care. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and connect with huge force, often faster than you can react.
Do not give to children
Strictly keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.
Cards and drives
Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.
Crushing risk
Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can cause hematomas, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
GPS and phone interference
GPS units and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.
