Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They do not lose magnetism, even during nearly 10 years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (theoretically),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetism drop as a result of opposing magnetic fields,
- The use of an metallic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet turns out to be extremely intense,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Possibility of accurate shaping as well as modifying to concrete conditions,
- Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are utilized in hard drives, motor assemblies, precision medical tools, as well as multitasking production systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Limitations
- At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Limited ability of making threads in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is casing - mounting mechanism.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to complex production process, their price is relatively high,
Pull force analysis
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?
- on a base made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
- possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- characterized by lack of roughness
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Magnet lifting force in use – key factors
- Distance (between the magnet and the metal), because even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
- Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface structure – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Temperature influence – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Warnings
Crushing risk
Protect your hands. Two large magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!
Nickel coating and allergies
Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction appears, cease working with magnets and use protective gear.
Precision electronics
Navigation devices and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.
Magnets are brittle
Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Operating temperature
Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require resistance above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Immense force
Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.
Electronic hazard
Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, computer, or screen. The magnetism can destroy these devices and wipe information from cards.
Danger to the youngest
Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to intestinal necrosis. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Combustion hazard
Powder created during machining of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
Health Danger
People with a heart stimulator have to maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can stop the functioning of the implant.
