Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
Contact Surface: Thanks to their flat shape, disc magnets guarantee a significant contact surface with other elements, which can be beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Applications in Technology: These magnets are often utilized in different devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where a flat shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: This form's flat shape makes mounting, particularly when there's a need to adhere the magnet to another surface.
Design Flexibility: The disc shape of the magnets gives designers with greater flexibility in arranging them in devices, which can be more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of a disc magnet may offer better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. It should be noted that the optimal shape of a magnet is dependent on the particular use and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be more suitable.

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 power decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are highly resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic sources,
- By applying a shiny coating of nickel, gold, or silver, the element gains an aesthetic appearance,
- They exhibit extremely high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- Thanks to their high temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the shape) even 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 many variants of shapes and sizes, which expands the range of their possible uses.
- Wide application in modern technologies – find application in HDD drives, electric drive mechanisms, medical equipment and various technologically advanced devices.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They can break as they are extremely fragile when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, it is suggested using magnets in a protective case. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts and simultaneously increases its overall strength,
- Magnets lose their strength due to exposure to high temperatures. In most cases, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, these magnets experience permanent reduction in strength (although it is worth noting that this is dependent on the shape and size of the magnet). To avoid this problem, we offer special magnets marked with the [AH] symbol, which exhibit high temperature resistance. They can operate even at temperatures as high as 230°C or more,
- They rust in a humid environment - during outdoor use, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of rubber or plastic,
- The use of a cover or a magnetic holder is recommended due to the limited possibilities of manufacturing threads or complex shapes in the magnet
- Potential hazard to health from tiny fragments of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting young children. It's also worth noting that small elements of these products can be problematic in medical diagnosis when they are in the body.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Magnets made of neodymium are particularly fragile, which leads to their breakage.
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 connection between the magnets, tiny sharp metal pieces can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Keep neodymium magnets as far away as possible from GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets produce intense magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.
In the case of neodymium magnets, there is a strong magnetic field. As a result, it interferes 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 strength can surprise you.
Make sure to review all the information we have provided. This will help you avoid harm to your body and damage to the magnets.
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.
If the joining of neodymium magnets is not controlled, at that time they may crumble and also crack. Remember not to move them to each other or have them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Despite the general resilience of magnets, 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.
Magnets are not toys, youngest should not play with them.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.
You should maintain neodymium magnets at a safe distance from the wallet, computer, and TV.
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, etc. devices. They can also damage videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets away from these electronic devices.
