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 epoxy 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 care 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 guaranteed.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often covered with coatings, such as nickel, to protect them from external factors and prolong their durability. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a deterioration of their magnetic properties, although there are particular types of neodymium magnets that can withstand 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 properly protected. Additionally, their use is not recommended in water, oil, or in an atmosphere containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from their consistent magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
- They have constant strength, and over around 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is notable,
- In other words, due to the metallic nickel coating, the magnet obtains an aesthetic appearance,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is impressively powerful,
- Thanks to their enhanced temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the geometry) even at temperatures up to 230°C or more,
- The ability for accurate shaping or adjustment to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in many forms and dimensions, which amplifies their functionality across industries,
- Key role in modern technologies – they are used in hard drives, electromechanical systems, clinical machines along with technologically developed systems,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they generate strong force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, they should be placed in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from fracture and additionally increases its overall durability,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the strength of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent weakening in performance (depending on height). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
- They rust in a humid environment. For outdoor use, we recommend using sealed magnets, such as those made of rubber,
- Limited ability to create threads in the magnet – the use of a external casing is recommended,
- Health risk due to small fragments may arise, in case of ingestion, which is significant in the health of young users. Moreover, miniature parts from these products might interfere with diagnostics once in the system,
- Due to a complex production process, their cost is above average,
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, measured under optimal conditions, specifically:
- with mild steel, serving as a magnetic flux conductor
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a polished side
- in conditions of no clearance
- under perpendicular detachment force
- in normal thermal conditions
Key elements affecting lifting force
The lifting capacity of a magnet is influenced by in practice key elements, ordered from most important to least significant:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as 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 load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a small distance {between} the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Magnets made of neodymium are extremely delicate, they easily break as well as can crumble.
Neodymium magnets are characterized by significant fragility. Magnets made of neodymium are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable 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 maintain their magnetic potency can be influenced by factors like the type of material used, the magnet's shape, and the intended purpose for which it is employed.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Magnetic fields can interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in aviation and maritime navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices. There are neodymium magnets in every smartphone, for example, in the microphone and speakers.
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.
In the case of placing a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in that situation, a cut or even a fracture may occur.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are 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.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful, most remarkable magnets on the planet, and the surprising force between them can shock you at first.
To handle 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.
Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Neodymium magnets produce strong 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 at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious 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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. They can be a significant choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing significant injuries, and even death.
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 happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
