Shopping tips

Flat neodymium magnets min. MPL 42x20x5 / N38 are magnets created from neodymium in a flat form. They are valued for their very strong magnetic properties, which outshine ordinary iron magnets.
Due to their strength, flat magnets are frequently used in devices that need exceptional adhesion.
The standard temperature resistance of these magnets is 80°C, but with larger dimensions, this value can increase.
Moreover, flat magnets usually have special coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, to increase their corrosion resistance.
The magnet with the designation MPL 42x20x5 / N38 i.e. a magnetic strength 11.44 kg weighing only 31.5 grams, making it the perfect choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Neodymium flat magnets offer a range of advantages compared to other magnet shapes, which lead to them being a perfect solution for various uses:
Contact surface: Thanks to their flat shape, flat magnets guarantee a greater contact surface with other components, which is beneficial in applications needing 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 crucial for their operation.
Mounting: This form's flat shape simplifies mounting, especially when it is required to attach the magnet to another surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets gives the possibility designers a lot of flexibility in arranging them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can provide better stability, reducing the risk of shifting or rotating. However, it's important to note that the optimal shape of the magnet depends on the specific application and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be more appropriate.
How do magnets work? Magnets attract objects made of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, nickel, cobalt or alloys of metals with magnetic properties. Additionally, magnets may weaker affect alloys containing iron, such as steel. Magnets are used in many fields.
The operation of magnets is based on the properties of the magnetic field, which is generated by the movement of electric charges within their material. The magnetic field of magnets creates attractive forces, which affect objects made of nickel or other magnetic materials.

Magnets have two main poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are different. Similar poles, such as two north poles, repel each other.
Due to these properties, magnets are regularly 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 materials used.
Magnets do not attract plastics, glass, wooden materials and most gemstones. Furthermore, magnets do not affect most metals, such as copper items, aluminum, copper, aluminum, and gold. These metals, although they are conductors of electricity, do not exhibit ferromagnetic properties, meaning that they remain unaffected by a magnet, unless exposed to a very strong magnetic field.
It should be noted that high temperatures can weaken the magnet's effect. 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 navigational instruments, credit 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.

In addition to immense strength, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:

  • They do not lose their power (of the magnet). After approximately 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
  • They are exceptionally resistant to demagnetization caused by an external magnetic field,
  • Thanks to the shiny finish and nickel, gold, or silver coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
  • They exhibit very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
  • By using an appropriate combination of materials, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing them to operate at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Due to the option of accurate forming or adaptation to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be produced in various forms and dimensions, which enhances their versatility in applications.
  • Key role in advanced technologically fields – are utilized in hard drives, electric motors, medical devices and other advanced devices.

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

  • They are fragile when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, we recommend using magnets in a metal holder. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts, and at the same time increases its overall strength,
  • High temperatures can reduce the power of neodymium magnets. Typically, after heating above 80°C, most of them experience a permanent loss in strength (although it is dependent on the form and size). To prevent this, we offer special magnets marked with the symbol [AH], which are highly resistant to high temperatures. They can operate even at temperatures up to 230°C, making them an ideal solution for applications requiring high-temperature operation,
  • They rust in a humid environment. For outdoor use, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of rubber or plastic,
  • The use of a cover or a magnetic holder is recommended due to the limited possibilities of manufacturing threads or complex shapes in the magnet
  • Potential hazard to health from tiny fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally ingested, which becomes significant in the context of children's health. Furthermore, tiny parts of these magnets are able to be problematic in medical diagnosis in case of swallowing.

Precautions

Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.

Neodymium magnets generate intense magnetic fields that can damage 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 away from these electronic devices.

Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.

If have a finger between or alternatively on the path of attracting magnets, there may be a large cut or even a fracture.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly 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.

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

While Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures, it's important to note that the extent of this effect can vary based on factors such as the magnet's material, shape, and intended application.

Neodymium magnets are among the most powerful magnets on Earth. The astonishing force they generate between each other can surprise you.

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.

Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.

In the case of neodymium magnets, there is a strong magnetic field. As a result, it interferes with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.

 Keep neodymium magnets away from children.

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.

The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets are a source of strong magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

Magnets made of neodymium are highly susceptible to damage, resulting in shattering.

In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. 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 fragments can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.
