Shopping tips
Moreover, although 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 epoxy 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. For this reason, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.
In terms of safety, there are several recommendations regarding the use of these magnets. They should not be used in acidic, basic, organic environments or in solvents, and also 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 conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often coated with thin coatings, such as epoxy, to protect them from environmental factors and prolong their durability. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a deterioration of their magnetic strength, although there are specific types of neodymium magnets that can tolerate temperatures up to 230°C.
As for potential dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic conditions, basic conditions, 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 properties.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- They retain their attractive force for nearly 10 years – the drop is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- They protect against demagnetization induced by ambient magnetic fields remarkably well,
- The use of a polished silver surface provides a smooth finish,
- The outer field strength of the magnet shows advanced magnetic properties,
- They are suitable for high-temperature applications, operating effectively at 230°C+ due to advanced heat resistance and form-specific properties,
- With the option for tailored forming and precise design, these magnets can be produced in various shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
- Wide application in advanced technical fields – they serve a purpose in data storage devices, rotating machines, healthcare devices or even sophisticated instruments,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They are prone to breaking when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to physical collisions, we recommend in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and additionally reinforces its overall durability,
- They lose strength at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent loss in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the geometry and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- Magnets exposed to damp air can degrade. Therefore, for outdoor applications, it's best to use waterproof types made of rubber,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the limitations in manufacturing holes directly in the magnet,
- Possible threat related to magnet particles may arise, in case of ingestion, which is important in the family environments. Additionally, minuscule fragments from these assemblies can interfere with diagnostics when ingested,
- Due to expensive raw materials, their cost is above average,
Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets
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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets are a source of strong magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
Strong fields generated by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other similar devices. In addition, they can damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.
Magnets made of neodymium are fragile and can easily break as well as get damaged.
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. 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.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
In certain circumstances, Neodymium magnets may experience demagnetization when subjected to high temperatures.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Magnets are not toys, children should not play with them.
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.
Neodymium magnets are among the strongest magnets on Earth. The astonishing force they generate between each other can surprise 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.
Neodymium magnets should not be near 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.
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.
In the situation of placing a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in that situation, a cut or a fracture may occur.
