Shopping tips
Due to their strength, flat magnets are regularly applied in products that need strong holding power.
Most common temperature resistance of these magnets is 80 °C, but with larger dimensions, this value rises.
In addition, flat magnets often have different coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their corrosion resistance.
The magnet named MPL 25x12.5x5 / N38 i.e. a magnetic strength 6.98 kg with a weight of a mere 11.72 grams, making it the excellent choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets guarantee a larger contact surface with other components, which is beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: They are often used in many devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is important for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape makes mounting, especially when it is necessary to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets permits designers a lot of flexibility in placing them in structures, which can be more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet may provide better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. It’s important to keep in mind that the optimal shape of the magnet is dependent on the given use and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be more appropriate.
Magnets have two poles: north (N) and south (S), which attract each other when they are oppositely oriented. Poles of the same kind, e.g. two north poles, act repelling on each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are commonly used in electrical devices, e.g. motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the highest power of attraction, making them ideal for applications requiring strong magnetic fields. Moreover, the strength of a magnet depends on its size and the materials used.
It’s worth noting that high temperatures can weaken the magnet's effect. Every magnetic material has its Curie point, meaning that under such conditions, the magnet stops being magnetic. Interestingly, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as navigational instruments, magnetic stripe cards or medical equipment, like pacemakers. For this reason, it is important to exercise caution when using magnets.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- They do not lose their even over around ten years – the loss of lifting capacity is only ~1% (according to tests),
- They are highly resistant to demagnetization caused by external magnetic sources,
- The use of a polished gold surface provides a smooth finish,
- They possess strong magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
- Thanks to their high temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C or more,
- With the option for fine forming and targeted design, these magnets can be produced in various shapes and sizes, greatly improving application potential,
- Key role in advanced technical fields – they find application in computer drives, rotating machines, healthcare devices and high-tech tools,
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, in miniature format,
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They may fracture when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, we recommend in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and additionally enhances its overall strength,
- Magnets lose power when exposed to temperatures exceeding 80°C. In most cases, this leads to irreversible power drop (influenced by the magnet’s profile). To address this, we provide [AH] models with superior thermal resistance, able to operate even at 230°C or more,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is recommended to use sealed magnets made of plastic for outdoor use,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the difficulty in manufacturing fine shapes directly in the magnet,
- Possible threat due to small fragments may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is crucial in the family environments. Additionally, small elements from these devices might interfere with diagnostics once in the system,
- Higher purchase price is one of the drawbacks compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they 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.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.
Magnetic fields interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation for air and sea transport, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious if you have an allergy.
Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as 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 can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Even though magnets have been found to maintain their efficacy up to temperatures of 80°C or 175°F, it's essential to consider that this threshold may fluctuate depending on the magnet's type, configuration, and intended usage.
It is important to maintain neodymium magnets out of reach from youngest children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. Small magnets pose a serious choking hazard or can attract to each other in the intestines. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.
Neodymium magnets are the strongest, most remarkable magnets on the planet, and the surprising force between them can surprise you at first.
Read the information on our website on how to properly utilize neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body and unintentional damage to the magnets.
Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, they easily crack as well as can crumble.
Neodymium magnetic are fragile 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 as well as coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. 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.
Make sure not to bring neodymium magnets close to the TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other similar devices. In addition, they can damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.
If you have a finger between or alternatively on the path of attracting magnets, there may be a serious cut or a fracture.
Be careful!
