Other products
Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- Their magnetic field remains stable, and after approximately ten years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
- They maintain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
- The use of an shiny coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
- Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet is strong,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Due to the option of accurate shaping and customization to individualized projects, magnetic components can be created in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Significant place in future technologies – they are used in computer drives, electric drive systems, diagnostic systems, also other advanced devices.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Disadvantages
- To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- Neodymium magnets lose their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic holder.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, tiny parts of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?
- using a base made of low-carbon steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
- with a thickness of at least 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- without any air gap between the magnet and steel
- during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
- at temperature room level
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Air gap (between the magnet and the plate), because even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
- Load vector – highest force is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy steels decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
- Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the plate, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Do not underestimate power
Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can move away.
Nickel coating and allergies
It is widely known that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent direct skin contact or choose encased magnets.
Maximum temperature
Control the heat. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Risk of cracking
Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets leads to them breaking into small pieces.
Phone sensors
Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
Health Danger
For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields affect medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
Keep away from computers
Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Danger to the youngest
Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Combustion hazard
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Finger safety
Big blocks can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not place your hand between two attracting surfaces.
