Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
Contact Surface: Thanks to their flat shape, disc magnets guarantee a larger contact surface with other elements, which can be beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Applications in Technology: These magnets are often utilized in different devices, like sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where a flat shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: The flat form's flat shape facilitates mounting, particularly when it's necessary to adhere the magnet to a surface.
Design Flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets provides designers with greater flexibility in placing them in devices, which can sometimes be more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of a disc magnet may provide better stability, minimizing the risk of shifting or rotating. Nevertheless, one should bear in mind that the optimal shape of a magnet is dependent on the specific project and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, such as cylindrical or spherical, may be a better choice.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to immense power, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose their strength (of the magnet). After about 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are highly resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic sources,
- In other words, thanks to the shiny nickel, gold, or silver finish, the element gains an aesthetic appearance,
- They have exceptionally high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- By using an appropriate combination of materials, they can achieve significant thermal resistance, allowing them to operate at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Due to the option of accurate forming and adaptation to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be produced in various forms and dimensions, which enhances their versatility in applications.
- Key role in the industry of new technologies – find application in computer drives, electric drive mechanisms, medical apparatus and various technologically advanced devices.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They are fragile when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, we recommend using magnets in a protective case. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts and at the same time increases its overall strength,
- High temperatures can reduce the strength of neodymium magnets. Typically, after heating above 80°C, most of them experience a permanent reduction in strength (although it is dependent on the shape and size). To prevent this, we offer special magnets marked with the symbol [AH], which are highly resistant to high temperatures. They can operate even at temperatures up to 230°C, making them an ideal solution for applications requiring high-temperature operation,
- Due to their susceptibility to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic, or other moisture-resistant materials when using them outdoors,
- The use of a cover - a magnetic holder is recommended due to the limited production capabilities of creating threads or complex shapes in the magnet
- Possible danger to health from tiny fragments of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small elements of these devices are able to hinder the diagnostic process in case of swallowing.
Precautions
Neodymium magnets are not recommended for 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 are over 10 times more powerful than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their power can surprise 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.
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 attract each other within a distance of several to around 10 cm from each other. Remember not to put fingers between magnets or in their path when they attract. Depending on how large the neodymium magnets are, they can lead to a cut or alternatively a fracture.
The magnet is coated with nickel. Therefore, exercise caution 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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets should not be around children.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays 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.
Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, leading to breaking.
Neodymium magnetic are highly fragile, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will crumble. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel surface, but they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of collision between the magnets, small metal fragments can be dispersed in different directions.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Even though magnets have been found 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.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets produce strong 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 TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Neodymium magnets generate intense 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 destroy devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
