Shopping tips
Due to their power, flat magnets are frequently applied in products that require strong holding power.
Most common temperature resistance of flat magnets is 80°C, but with larger dimensions, this value rises.
In addition, flat magnets commonly have special coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their durability.
The magnet with the designation MPL 10x10x3 / N38 and a magnetic strength 2.37 kg which weighs just 2.25 grams, making it the ideal choice for applications requiring a flat shape.
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets guarantee a larger contact surface with adjacent parts, which is beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These magnets are often used in various devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape makes it easier mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to another surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets gives the possibility designers a lot of flexibility in placing them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of the flat magnet may provide better stability, minimizing the risk of shifting or rotating. However, one should remember that the optimal shape of the magnet is dependent on the given use and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, such as cylindrical or spherical, may be a better choice.
Magnets have two main poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are oppositely oriented. Poles of the same kind, such as two north poles, act repelling on each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are often used in magnetic technologies, such as motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the highest power of attraction, making them perfect for applications requiring powerful magnetic fields. Moreover, the strength of a magnet depends on its size and the material it is made of.
It should be noted that extremely high temperatures, above the Curie point, cause a loss of magnetic properties in the magnet. Every magnetic material has its Curie point, meaning that once this temperature is exceeded, the magnet stops being magnetic. Interestingly, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as navigational instruments, magnetic stripe cards and even electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. For this reason, it is important to exercise caution when using magnets.
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- They retain their magnetic properties for around ten years – the drop is just ~1% (according to analyses),
- They remain magnetized despite exposure to strong external fields,
- By applying a shiny layer of nickel, the element gains a clean look,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is very strong,
- They are suitable for high-temperature applications, operating effectively at 230°C+ due to advanced heat resistance and form-specific properties,
- With the option for fine forming and targeted design, these magnets can be produced in multiple shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
- Key role in cutting-edge sectors – they are utilized in HDDs, electric drives, clinical machines or even other advanced devices,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, it is advisable to use in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage and increases its overall durability,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the field efficiency 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,
- They rust in a damp environment. If exposed to rain, we recommend using sealed magnets, such as those made of plastic,
- Limited ability to create precision features in the magnet – the use of a external casing is recommended,
- Potential hazard from tiny pieces may arise, in case of ingestion, which is notable in the context of child safety. Additionally, miniature parts from these products can disrupt scanning once in the system,
- In cases of mass production, neodymium magnet cost may be a barrier,
Safety Precautions
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This is because many of these devices are equipped with a function that deactivates the device in a magnetic field.
Neodymium magnets are over 10 times stronger than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), 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 damage to the magnets.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.
Neodymium magnetic are incredibly delicate, they easily crack as well as can become damaged.
Magnets made of neodymium are extremely delicate, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will break. Neodymium magnetic are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable as steel. In the event of a collision between two magnets, there may be a scattering of fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is crucial in such a situation.
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.
Neodymium magnets will bounce and clash together within a radius of several to around 10 cm from each other.
Keep neodymium magnets away from children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays 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.
If you have a nickel allergy, avoid contact with neodymium magnets.
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.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Intense magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets can destroy 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.
