Shopping tips
Thanks to their high strength, flat magnets are regularly applied in devices that require strong holding power.
Most common temperature resistance of these magnets is 80°C, but depending on the dimensions, this value can increase.
Moreover, flat magnets commonly have special coatings applied to their surfaces, e.g. nickel, gold, or chrome, to increase their durability.
The magnet with the designation MPL 25x25x10 / N38 i.e. a magnetic strength 19.74 kg weighing only 46.88 grams, making it the ideal choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Contact surface: Thanks to their flat shape, flat magnets ensure a larger contact surface with adjacent parts, which can be beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These are often utilized in many devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the flat shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape makes mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets permits creators a lot of flexibility in arranging them in devices, which is more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can offer better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. However, one should remember that the optimal shape of the magnet depends on the specific project and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, such as cylindrical or spherical, are more appropriate.
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 commonly used in magnetic technologies, such as 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. Additionally, 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. The Curie temperature is specific to each type of magnet, meaning that under such conditions, the magnet stops being magnetic. Interestingly, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, magnetic stripe cards and even electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. Therefore, it is important to exercise caution when using magnets.
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from their notable magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
- They have constant strength, and over more than 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
- They protect against demagnetization induced by surrounding magnetic fields effectively,
- Thanks to the shiny finish and gold coating, they have an elegant appearance,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is impressively powerful,
- They are suitable for high-temperature applications, operating effectively at 230°C+ due to advanced heat resistance and form-specific properties,
- The ability for custom shaping as well as adjustment to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in many forms and dimensions, which extends the scope of their use cases,
- Wide application in new technology industries – they find application in HDDs, rotating machines, healthcare devices as well as other advanced devices,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they generate strong force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:
- They may fracture when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to physical collisions, they should be placed in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage and reinforces its overall durability,
- Magnets lose magnetic efficiency when exposed to temperatures exceeding 80°C. In most cases, this leads to irreversible field weakening (influenced by the magnet’s form). To address this, we provide [AH] models with superior thermal resistance, able to operate even at 230°C or more,
- Magnets exposed to wet conditions can corrode. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we recommend waterproof types made of coated materials,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining multi-axis shapes in neodymium magnets is difficult,
- Health risk linked to microscopic shards may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is important in the family environments. Moreover, miniature parts from these assemblies can hinder health screening if inside the body,
- Due to the price of neodymium, their cost is relatively high,
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what affects it?
The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, measured in ideal conditions, specifically:
- with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
- of a thickness of at least 10 mm
- with a smooth surface
- in conditions of no clearance
- under perpendicular detachment force
- in normal thermal conditions
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
Practical lifting force is dependent on elements, by priority:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes 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 measured with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance {between} the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
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. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
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.
Magnets are not toys, children should not play with them.
Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
In certain circumstances, Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetism when subjected to high temperatures.
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 happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, leading to shattering.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. Despite being made of metal as well as coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of collision 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.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets are over 10 times more powerful than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their strength can shock you.
On our website, you can find information on how to use neodymium magnets. This will help you avoid injuries and prevent damage to the magnets.
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.
In the case of holding a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in such a case, a cut or a fracture may occur.
