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 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 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. Additionally, 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 conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often coated with coatings, such as gold, to preserve them from environmental factors and prolong their durability. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a reduction 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 conditions, basic conditions, organic or solvent environments, unless they are properly protected. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may forfeit their magnetic strength.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from their superior holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
- Their power remains stable, and after around ten years, it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- They protect against demagnetization induced by external magnetic influence remarkably well,
- The use of a decorative gold surface provides a smooth finish,
- They possess significant magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
- With the right combination of compounds, they reach excellent thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the form),
- Thanks to the possibility in shaping and the capability to adapt to unique requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in different geometries, which broadens their application range,
- Key role in cutting-edge sectors – they are utilized in data storage devices, rotating machines, medical equipment or even technologically developed systems,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they deliver powerful magnetism, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They may fracture 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 breakage and enhances its overall resistance,
- Magnets lose pulling force when exposed to temperatures exceeding 80°C. In most cases, this leads to irreversible field weakening (influenced by the magnet’s profile). 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. If exposed to rain, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of plastic,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining threads in neodymium magnets is risky,
- Health risk related to magnet particles may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is notable in the context of child safety. Furthermore, miniature parts from these products may disrupt scanning if inside the body,
- Higher purchase price is one of the drawbacks compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
The given lifting capacity of the magnet represents the maximum lifting force, assessed in the best circumstances, specifically:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a smooth surface
- with zero air gap
- under perpendicular detachment force
- at room temperature
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
Practical lifting force is determined by elements, listed from the most critical to the less significant:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because 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 measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance {between} the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.
Handle Neodymium Magnets Carefully
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel allergy.
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.
Make sure not to bring neodymium magnets close to the TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Magnetic 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. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
Comparing neodymium magnets to ferrite magnets (found in speakers), they are 10 times stronger, and their strength can surprise you.
To use magnets properly, it is best to familiarize yourself with our information beforehand. This will help you avoid significant harm to your body and the magnets themselves.
Never bring neodymium magnets close to a phone and GPS.
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.
Keep neodymium magnets away from youngest children.
Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.
Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can 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.
Neodymium magnetic are known for their fragility, which can cause them to become 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.
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 can attract to each other due to their immense internal force, causing the skin and other body parts to get pinched and resulting in significant injuries.
If joining of neodymium magnets is not controlled, at that time they may crumble and crack. You can't approach them to each other. At a distance less than 10 cm you should hold them very firmly.
