Shopping tips
Due to their strength, flat magnets are regularly used in structures that require very strong attraction.
The standard temperature resistance of these magnets is 80°C, but with larger dimensions, this value grows.
In addition, flat magnets often have different coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, to improve their corrosion resistance.
The magnet named MPL 50x20x10 / N38 i.e. a lifting capacity of 24.97 kg weighing a mere 75 grams, making it the excellent choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets ensure a larger contact surface with adjacent parts, which can be beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These 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: The flat form's flat shape simplifies 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 placing them in devices, which is more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can provide better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. However, one should remember that the optimal shape of the magnet is dependent on the specific project and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be a better choice.
Magnets have two poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are oppositely oriented. Poles of the same kind, e.g. two north poles, repel each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are commonly used in electrical devices, 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. Additionally, the strength of a magnet depends on its dimensions 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 once this temperature is exceeded, the magnet stops being magnetic. Additionally, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, magnetic stripe cards or electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. Therefore, it is important to avoid placing magnets near such devices.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- Their magnetic field is durable, and after around ten years, it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- They are extremely resistant to demagnetization caused by external magnetic sources,
- Thanks to the glossy finish and silver coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
- They exhibit elevated levels of magnetic induction near the outer area of the magnet,
- With the right combination of magnetic alloys, they reach increased thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the structure),
- The ability for accurate shaping and customization to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which amplifies their functionality across industries,
- Important function in new technology industries – they are utilized in data storage devices, electromechanical systems, healthcare devices as well as technologically developed systems,
- Thanks to their efficiency per volume, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, with minimal size,
Disadvantages of magnetic elements:
- They are fragile when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, it is advisable to use in a steel housing. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage , and at the same time strengthens its overall strength,
- They lose magnetic force at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent degradation in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the dimensions and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- Magnets exposed to moisture can degrade. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we advise waterproof types made of non-metallic composites,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining threads in neodymium magnets is difficult,
- Possible threat due to small fragments may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is notable in the family environments. Additionally, tiny components from these assemblies have the potential to complicate medical imaging after being swallowed,
- Higher purchase price is one of the drawbacks compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications
Precautions
If you have a nickel allergy, avoid contact with neodymium magnets.
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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere 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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize 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.
Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets ever created, and their power can surprise you.
Please review the information on how to handle neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body, as well as prevent unintentional disruption to the magnets.
Keep neodymium magnets away from 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.
Neodymium magnets should not be in the vicinity youngest 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.
Neodymium magnetic are noted for being fragile, which can cause them to crumble.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. They are coated with a shiny nickel plating similar to steel, but they are not as hard. 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.
Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.
Neodymium magnets bounce and touch each other mutually within a distance of several to around 10 cm from each other.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.
