Shopping tips
Moreover, even though neodymium is a component of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. Therefore, they are coated with a thin layer of gold to protect them from corrosion. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, easily break, which requires care 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. They should not be used in acidic, basic, organic environments or where solvents are present, as well as in water or oil. Additionally, they can damage 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 susceptible to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often coated with coatings, such as epoxy, to shield them from external factors and extend their lifespan. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a deterioration of their magnetic strength, although there are particular 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 properly protected. Additionally, their use is not recommended in water, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may forfeit their magnetic strength.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over more than ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- They show exceptional resistance to demagnetization from external field exposure,
- By applying a bright layer of nickel, the element gains a clean look,
- They possess significant magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
- These magnets tolerate extreme temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to form),
- With the option for fine forming and precise design, these magnets can be produced in various shapes and sizes, greatly improving engineering flexibility,
- Significant impact in new technology industries – they are utilized in hard drives, electric motors, healthcare devices along with sophisticated instruments,
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, with minimal size,
Disadvantages of magnetic elements:
- They may fracture when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, they should be placed in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage and increases its overall resistance,
- They lose power at extreme 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,
- They rust in a humid environment. If exposed to rain, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of rubber,
- Limited ability to create threads in the magnet – the use of a housing is recommended,
- Potential hazard due to small fragments may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is significant in the context of child safety. Additionally, minuscule fragments from these devices might complicate medical imaging once in the system,
- In cases of mass production, neodymium magnet cost is a challenge,
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Neodymium magnets should not be near 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.
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.
Neodymium magnets are characterized by 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. Despite being made of metal as well as coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. 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.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets are a source of intense magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Magnets are not toys, youngest should not play with them.
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.
Magnets will crack or crumble with careless connecting to each other. You can't approach them to each other. At a distance less than 10 cm you should have them extremely strongly.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Although magnets are generally resilient, their ability to retain their magnetic strength can be influenced by factors like the type of material used, the magnet's shape, and the intended purpose for which it is employed.
Neodymium magnets are among the strongest magnets on Earth. The astonishing force they generate between each other can shock you.
On our website, you can find information on how to use neodymium magnets. This will help you avoid injuries and prevent damage to the magnets.
Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Neodymium magnets produce intense magnetic fields that can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, etc. devices. They can also destroy devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Remember not to place neodymium magnets close to these electronic devices.
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.
Exercise caution!
