Shopping tips
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over more than 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
- They remain magnetized despite exposure to magnetic noise,
- Because of the reflective layer of silver, the component looks visually appealing,
- They possess strong magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
- 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 possibility in shaping and the capability to adapt to unique requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in different geometries, which increases their functional possibilities,
- Wide application in modern technologies – they are used in computer drives, electric motors, diagnostic apparatus along with sophisticated instruments,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they deliver powerful magnetism, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of magnetic elements:
- They are fragile when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, we recommend in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and additionally increases its overall strength,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the holding force of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent decline in performance (depending on form). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
- Magnets exposed to wet conditions can oxidize. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we advise waterproof types made of plastic,
- Limited ability to create complex details in the magnet – the use of a housing is recommended,
- Possible threat related to magnet particles may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is important in the protection of children. Additionally, small elements from these products may disrupt scanning after being swallowed,
- In cases of large-volume purchasing, neodymium magnet cost may be a barrier,
Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what contributes to it?
The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, determined in ideal conditions, specifically:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, acting as a magnetic circuit closure
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a smooth surface
- in conditions of no clearance
- under perpendicular detachment force
- in normal thermal conditions
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
Practical lifting force is determined by factors, by priority:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since 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 testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Precautions
Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, etc. devices. They can also damage devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets away from these electronic devices.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. However, if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the device when it is in a magnetic field.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.
Strong fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnetic are especially fragile, resulting in their breakage.
Neodymium magnetic are delicate as well as will crack if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. 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, small sharp metal pieces can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Magnets are not toys, youngest should not play with them.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.
Neodymium Magnets can attract to each other due to their immense internal force, causing the skin and other body parts to get pinched and resulting in significant swellings.
Magnets may crack or alternatively crumble with careless connecting to each other. Remember not to move them to each other or have them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.
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.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their strength 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.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Under specific conditions, Neodymium magnets may experience demagnetization when subjected to high temperatures.
