Shopping tips
Moreover, even though neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a coating of silver to protect them from corrosion. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, are brittle, which requires special caution during their handling. Therefore, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.
In terms of safety, there are several recommendations regarding the use of these magnets. It is advisable to avoid their use in acidic, basic, organic environments or in solvents, and also in water or oil. Furthermore, they can distort data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not guaranteed.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are sensitive to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often covered with thin coatings, such as epoxy, to protect them from environmental factors and prolong their durability. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a loss of their magnetic strength, although there are particular types of neodymium magnets that can tolerate temperatures up to 230°C.
As for dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic environments, basic environments, organic or solvent environments, unless they are insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an atmosphere containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their immense magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
- They do not lose their power nearly ten years – the decrease of strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- They show strong resistance to demagnetization from outside magnetic sources,
- Thanks to the glossy finish and nickel coating, they have an visually attractive appearance,
- They have very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- These magnets tolerate elevated temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to form),
- With the option for tailored forming and precise design, these magnets can be produced in numerous shapes and sizes, greatly improving engineering flexibility,
- Wide application in modern technologies – they are utilized in HDDs, electromechanical systems, clinical machines and other advanced devices,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer intense magnetic field in tiny dimensions, which makes them ideal in miniature devices
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, they should be placed in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage , and at the same time reinforces its overall strength,
- They lose strength at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent decline in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the form and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- They rust in a damp environment, especially when used outside, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of rubber,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the limitations in manufacturing threads directly in the magnet,
- Possible threat linked to microscopic shards may arise, especially if swallowed, which is significant in the health of young users. Furthermore, small elements from these devices can interfere with diagnostics if inside the body,
- High unit cost – neodymium magnets are pricier than other types of magnets (e.g., ferrite), which increases the cost of large-scale applications
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what affects it?
The given strength of the magnet means the optimal strength, calculated in the best circumstances, that is:
- with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
- having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
- with a refined outer layer
- with zero air gap
- with vertical force applied
- in normal thermal conditions
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
The lifting capacity of a magnet is determined by in practice key elements, ordered from most important to least significant:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause 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.
* Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.
We Recommend Caution with Neodymium Magnets
The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Magnets made of neodymium are especially fragile, resulting in damage.
Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will crack. 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, sharp metal fragments can be dispersed in different directions.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
In certain circumstances, Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetism when subjected to high temperatures.
Keep neodymium magnets as far away as possible from GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets generate intense magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnets should not be in the vicinity youngest children.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. Small magnets can pose a serious choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing severe injuries, and even death.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets are primarily characterized by their significant internal force. They attract to each other, and any object that comes in their way will be affected.
In the situation of holding a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in such a case, a cut or even a fracture may occur.
Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Neodymium magnets produce strong 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. Remember not to place neodymium magnets close to these electronic devices.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their strength can shock you.
Familiarize yourself with our information to correctly handle these magnets and avoid significant swellings to your body and prevent disruption to the magnets.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
