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 gold-nickel to increase their durability. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, easily break, 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, as well as in water or oil. Additionally, 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 susceptible to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often covered with coatings, such as gold, to preserve them from external factors and extend their lifespan. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a loss of their magnetic properties, although there are specific types of neodymium magnets that can withstand temperatures up to 230°C.
As for potential 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 wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- They have stable power, and over around 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is notable,
- Thanks to the glossy finish and nickel coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
- They exhibit superior levels of magnetic induction near the outer area 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 as well as customization to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in many forms and dimensions, which extends the scope of their use cases,
- Key role in new technology industries – they serve a purpose in HDDs, rotating machines, clinical machines along with sophisticated instruments,
- Thanks to their efficiency per volume, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, with minimal size,
Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to physical collisions, they should be placed in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage while also increases its overall robustness,
- They lose power at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent reduction in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the shape 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. For outdoor use, we recommend using encapsulated magnets, such as those made of polymer,
- Limited ability to create internal holes in the magnet – the use of a mechanical support is recommended,
- Potential hazard from tiny pieces may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is crucial in the context of child safety. It should also be noted that minuscule fragments from these products have the potential to hinder health screening if inside the body,
- Due to a complex production process, their cost is above average,
Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?
The given strength of the magnet means the optimal strength, assessed in the best circumstances, namely:
- with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
- having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
- with a smooth surface
- with no separation
- with vertical force applied
- under standard ambient temperature
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
The lifting capacity of a magnet depends on in practice key elements, ordered from most important to least significant:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes 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 tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Although magnets have shown to retain their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, this temperature may vary depending on the type of material, shape, and intended use of the magnet.
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.
Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets ever invented. Their power can shock you.
Make sure to review all the information we have provided. This will help you avoid harm to your body and damage to the magnets.
It is important to maintain neodymium magnets away 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.
Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.
In the case of placing a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in such a case, a cut or even a fracture may occur.
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. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
If you have a nickel allergy, avoid contact with neodymium magnets.
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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Intense magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, resulting in breaking.
Neodymium magnets are delicate and will crack if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. Despite being made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. In the case of a collision between two magnets, there can be a scattering of small sharp metal fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is essential.
