Shopping tips
Due to their power, flat magnets are regularly applied in products that require very strong attraction.
Most common temperature resistance of flat magnets is 80°C, but with larger dimensions, this value rises.
Moreover, flat magnets commonly have special coatings applied to their surfaces, e.g. nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their corrosion resistance.
The magnet labeled MPL 50x20x10 / N38 i.e. a magnetic force 24.97 kg which weighs just 75 grams, making it the excellent choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Contact surface: Thanks to their flat shape, flat magnets guarantee a larger contact surface with other components, which can be beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These are often utilized in different devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is necessary for their operation.
Mounting: This form's flat shape makes mounting, especially when it is necessary to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets allows creators a lot of flexibility in arranging them in structures, which can be more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can provide better stability, reducing the risk of shifting or rotating. It’s important to keep in mind that the optimal shape of the magnet is dependent on the specific application and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be a better choice.
Magnets have two main 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.
Due to these properties, magnets are often used in magnetic technologies, e.g. motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the greatest strength of attraction, making them indispensable for applications requiring powerful magnetic fields. Additionally, 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. The Curie temperature is specific to each type of magnet, meaning that once this temperature is exceeded, 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. For this reason, it is important to avoid placing magnets near such devices.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their tremendous strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
- Their strength remains stable, and after approximately ten years, it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
- They are extremely resistant to demagnetization caused by external magnetic sources,
- Because of the reflective layer of silver, the component looks high-end,
- They have very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- Neodymium magnets are known for strong magnetic induction and the ability to work at temperatures up to 230°C or higher (depending on the magnetic form),
- The ability for custom shaping and adjustment to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which enhances their versatility in applications,
- Wide application in advanced technical fields – they are utilized in computer drives, electric drives, medical equipment and other advanced devices,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they provide high effectiveness, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They are prone to breaking when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, it is advisable to use in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage while also enhances its overall robustness,
- Magnets lose field strength when exposed to temperatures exceeding 80°C. In most cases, this leads to irreversible performance loss (influenced by the magnet’s structure). 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 synthetic coating for outdoor use,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining multi-axis shapes in neodymium magnets is restricted,
- Health risk linked to microscopic shards may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is notable in the health of young users. It should also be noted that tiny components from these magnets have the potential to disrupt scanning once in the system,
- In cases of tight budgets, neodymium magnet cost may be a barrier,
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Comparing neodymium magnets to ferrite magnets (found in speakers), they are 10 times more powerful, and their power 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.
Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. However, if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the device when it is in a magnetic field.
Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.
If you have a finger between or alternatively on the path of attracting magnets, there may be a severe cut or a fracture.
Maintain neodymium magnets far from children.
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.
Under specific conditions, Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetism when subjected to high temperatures.
You should keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from the wallet, computer, and TV.
The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets 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 videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets away from these electronic devices.
Magnets made of neodymium are particularly fragile, which leads to damage.
Magnets made of neodymium are highly fragile, 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.
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.
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.
Keep neodymium magnets as far away as possible from GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
