Shopping tips
Thanks to their mighty power, flat magnets are commonly applied in devices that need very strong attraction.
The standard temperature resistance of these magnets is 80 °C, but depending on the dimensions, this value grows.
In addition, flat magnets often have different coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their strength.
The magnet labeled MPL 30x10x5 / N38 i.e. a magnetic force 6.84 kg which weighs only 11.25 grams, making it the excellent 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 can be beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These magnets are often used in different devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is important for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape simplifies mounting, particularly when there's a need to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets gives the possibility creators greater flexibility in placing them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of the flat magnet may provide better stability, reducing 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 certain cases, other shapes, such as 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. Similar poles, such as two north poles, repel each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are often used in magnetic technologies, e.g. motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the highest power of attraction, making them indispensable for applications requiring strong magnetic fields. Additionally, the strength of a magnet depends on its size and the material it is made of.
It’s worth noting 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 under such conditions, the magnet stops being magnetic. Additionally, 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 and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- Their strength remains stable, and after approximately ten years, it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- They show strong resistance to demagnetization from outside magnetic sources,
- In other words, due to the shiny silver coating, the magnet obtains an aesthetic appearance,
- They have exceptional magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- With the right combination of compounds, they reach excellent thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the design),
- With the option for customized forming and personalized design, these magnets can be produced in numerous shapes and sizes, greatly improving engineering flexibility,
- Important function in new technology industries – they are used in hard drives, electric motors, clinical machines as well as sophisticated instruments,
- Thanks to their concentrated strength, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, with minimal size,
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They may fracture when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, it is suggested to place them in a steel housing. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage while also reinforces its overall resistance,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the field efficiency of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent deterioration in performance (depending on size). 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,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is common to use sealed magnets made of plastic for outdoor use,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the restrictions in manufacturing complex structures directly in the magnet,
- Potential hazard from tiny pieces may arise, especially if swallowed, which is crucial in the family environments. Additionally, small elements from these devices can interfere with diagnostics after being swallowed,
- In cases of tight budgets, neodymium magnet cost may not be economically viable,
Handle Neodymium Magnets with Caution
Neodymium magnetic are characterized by being fragile, which can cause them to shatter.
Neodymium magnets are characterized by considerable fragility. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel surface, but they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of collision between the magnets, small metal fragments can be dispersed in different directions.
Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
Neodymium magnets generate intense magnetic fields that can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
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. In the case of swallowing multiple magnets simultaneously, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to death.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Although magnets have shown to retain their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, this temperature may vary depending on the type of material, shape, and intended use of the magnet.
People with pacemakers are advised to avoid neodymium magnets.
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 can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.
If the joining of neodymium magnets is not under control, then they may crumble and crack. Remember not to move them to each other or hold them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.
Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets ever created, and their strength can shock you.
To handle magnets properly, it is best to familiarize yourself with our information beforehand. This will help you avoid significant harm to your body and the magnets themselves.
The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets are a source of intense magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Exercise caution!
