Shopping tips
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their immense pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years, the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
- Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is notable,
- Because of the reflective layer of silver, the component looks visually appealing,
- They possess significant magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
- With the right combination of materials, they reach excellent thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the structure),
- The ability for precise shaping as well as adjustment to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which enhances their versatility in applications,
- Key role in advanced technical fields – they are used in computer drives, electric motors, medical equipment as well as other advanced devices,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they generate strong force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of magnetic elements:
- They can break when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to physical collisions, it is suggested to place them in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage and additionally enhances its overall resistance,
- They lose power at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent reduction in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the shape and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- They rust in a wet environment – during outdoor use, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of non-metallic materials,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the challenges in manufacturing threads directly in the magnet,
- Safety concern due to small fragments may arise, especially if swallowed, which is significant in the context of child safety. Moreover, tiny components from these assemblies can hinder health screening once in the system,
- In cases of mass production, neodymium magnet cost is a challenge,
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?
The given pulling force of the magnet means the maximum force, determined in ideal conditions, namely:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a refined outer layer
- with zero air gap
- with vertical force applied
- at room temperature
Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors
The lifting capacity of a magnet depends on in practice the following factors, ordered from most important to least significant:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because 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 using a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Handle Neodymium Magnets with Caution
Neodymium magnetic are known for their fragility, which can cause them to crumble.
Neodymium magnetic are delicate and will break 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 are the most powerful magnets ever created, and their power can shock you.
Please review the information on how to handle neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body, as well as prevent unintentional disruption to the magnets.
Make sure not to bring neodymium magnets close to the TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can damage 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 primarily characterized by their significant internal force. They attract to each other, and any object that comes in their way will be affected.
In the situation of placing a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in such a case, a cut or even a fracture may occur.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
In the case of neodymium magnets, there is a strong magnetic field. As a result, it interferes with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Avoid bringing neodymium magnets close to a phone or GPS.
Magnetic fields can interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in aviation and maritime navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices. There are neodymium magnets in every smartphone, for example, in the microphone and speakers.
Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Do not allow children to play 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 severe injuries, and even death.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Although magnets are generally resilient, their ability to maintain their magnetic potency can be influenced by factors like the type of material used, the magnet's shape, and the intended purpose for which it is employed.
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.
