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 needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Applications in Technology: These magnets are often employed in different devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where a flat shape is essential for their operation.
Mounting: The flat form's flat shape makes mounting, especially when it's necessary to adhere the magnet to a surface.
Design Flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets allows designers with greater flexibility in arranging them in devices, which can sometimes be more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of a disc magnet may offer better stability, reducing the risk of shifting or rotating. It should be noted that the optimal shape of a magnet is dependent on the specific application and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, might be more suitable.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to immense strength, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose power over time. After 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They protect against demagnetization caused by external magnetic sources extremely well,
- In other words, thanks to the shiny coating of nickel, gold, or silver, the element acquires an aesthetic appearance,
- They have very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- Magnetic neodymium magnets are characterized by hugely high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet and can operate (depending on the shape) even at temperatures of 230°C or higher...
- 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 amplifies their universality in usage.
- Key role in the industry of new technologies – find application in computer drives, electric motors, medical apparatus and other advanced devices.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They are fragile when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, we recommend using magnets in a steel housing. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts, and at the same time increases its overall strength,
- Magnets lose their power 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,
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore, when using them outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic, or other moisture-resistant materials,
- 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
- Health risk arising from small pieces of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes significant in the context of children's health. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices have the potential to be problematic in medical diagnosis in case of swallowing.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Magnets made of neodymium are especially delicate, resulting in shattering.
Neodymium magnetic are delicate as well as will break if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. Despite being made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. 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.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.
Magnetic fields interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation for air and sea transport, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are 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 are primarily characterized by their significant internal force. They attract to each other, and any object that comes in their way will be affected.
Neodymium magnets will bounce and contact together within a radius of several to around 10 cm from each other.
Maintain neodymium magnets far from children.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Do not allow children to play 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.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
Strong 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.
The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful 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.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Whilst Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetic properties at high temperatures, it's important to note that the extent of this effect can vary based on factors such as the magnet's material, shape, and intended application.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful, most remarkable magnets on the planet, and the surprising force between them can shock you at first.
Familiarize yourself with our information to correctly handle these magnets and avoid significant injuries to your body and prevent damage to the magnets.
Neodymium magnets should not be near 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.
