Shopping tips
Moreover, even though neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. Therefore, they are coated with a coating of nickel to increase their durability. 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. For this reason, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.
In terms of safety, there are many recommendations regarding the use of these magnets. It is advisable to avoid their use in acidic, basic, organic environments or in solvents, as well as in water or oil. Furthermore, they can distort data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not always certain.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are sensitive to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often covered with coatings, such as epoxy, to preserve them from environmental factors and extend their lifespan. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a deterioration of their magnetic strength, although there are specific 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 adequately insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in water, oil, or in an atmosphere containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic properties.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their tremendous pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years, the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
- They protect against demagnetization induced by ambient electromagnetic environments effectively,
- Because of the lustrous layer of nickel, the component looks high-end,
- They have exceptional magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- They are suitable for high-temperature applications, operating effectively at 230°C+ due to advanced heat resistance and form-specific properties,
- The ability for accurate shaping and adjustment to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which extends the scope of their use cases,
- Significant impact in advanced technical fields – they find application in HDDs, electric motors, medical equipment and sophisticated instruments,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling strength in compact dimensions, which makes them ideal in small systems
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They are fragile when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, we recommend in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage while also strengthens its overall strength,
- 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,
- They rust in a humid environment. For outdoor use, we recommend using sealed magnets, such as those made of rubber,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining multi-axis shapes in neodymium magnets is restricted,
- Health risk from tiny pieces may arise, in case of ingestion, which is significant in the protection of children. Additionally, small elements from these magnets can interfere with diagnostics once in the system,
- Due to a complex production process, their cost is above average,
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what contributes to it?
The given strength of the magnet corresponds to the optimal strength, measured in ideal conditions, specifically:
- with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
- of a thickness of at least 10 mm
- with a polished side
- with zero air gap
- under perpendicular detachment force
- at room temperature
Magnet lifting force in use – key factors
In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is conditioned by these factors, in descending order of importance:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since 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.
* Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a slight gap {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
We Recommend Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Neodymium magnets should not be around 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.
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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
While Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetic properties 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.
Make sure not to bring neodymium magnets close to the TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
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 damage devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets away from these electronic devices.
Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.
Magnets will attract each other within a distance of several to about 10 cm from each other. Remember not to insert fingers between magnets or in their path when they attract. Magnets, depending on their size, are able even cut off a finger or there can be a serious pressure or a fracture.
Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets ever invented. Their strength can surprise you.
Familiarize yourself with our information to correctly handle these magnets and avoid significant injuries to your body and prevent damage to the magnets.
Neodymium magnetic are especially fragile, which leads to damage.
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 connection between the magnets, sharp metal fragments can be dispersed in different directions.
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 away 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.
Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they 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.
Be careful!
