Shopping tips
Moreover, even though neodymium is a component of the strongest magnets, they are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a coating of silver to protect them from corrosion. 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 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. Furthermore, 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 sensitive to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often coated with thin coatings, such as epoxy, to preserve them from external factors and prolong their durability. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a deterioration of their magnetic properties, although there are particular types of neodymium magnets that can tolerate temperatures up to 230°C.
As for risks, 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 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 long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- They have stable power, and over more than ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
- They are very resistant to demagnetization caused by external field interference,
- In other words, due to the metallic silver coating, the magnet obtains an professional appearance,
- They possess significant magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
- Thanks to their exceptional temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the geometry) even at temperatures up to 230°C or more,
- The ability for precise shaping as well as adjustment to custom needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which extends the scope of their use cases,
- Significant impact in new technology industries – they serve a purpose in HDDs, rotating machines, clinical machines along with high-tech tools,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they provide high effectiveness, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:
- They are fragile when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, we recommend in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks , and at the same time enhances its overall resistance,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the strength of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent weakening in performance (depending on shape). 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,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is advisable to use sealed magnets made of protective material for outdoor use,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the difficulty in manufacturing threads directly in the magnet,
- Potential hazard linked to microscopic shards may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is important in the health of young users. Moreover, tiny components from these products have the potential to disrupt scanning once in the system,
- Higher purchase price is one of the drawbacks compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
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 magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Despite the fact that magnets have been observed to maintain their efficacy up to temperatures of 80°C or 175°F, it's essential to consider that this threshold may fluctuate depending on the magnet's type, configuration, and intended usage.
It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.
Magnets will attract each other within a distance of several to about 10 cm from each other. Don't put your fingers in the path of magnet attraction, as a serious injury may occur. Magnets, depending on their size, are able even cut off a finger or alternatively there can be a serious pressure or a fracture.
Neodymium magnetic are known for their fragility, which can cause them to shatter.
Neodymium magnetic are delicate as well as will break if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. They are coated with a shiny nickel plating similar to steel, but they are not as hard. 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.
Magnets are not toys, youngest should not play with them.
Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. Small magnets pose a serious choking hazard or can attract to each other in the intestines. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.
Neodymium magnets are over 10 times more powerful than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their power can shock you.
Please review the information on how to handle neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body, as well as prevent unintentional damage to the magnets.
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.
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.
