Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
Contact Surface: Due to their flat shape, disc magnets guarantee a significant contact surface with adjoining parts, which is beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Applications in Technology: These magnets are often utilized in different devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where a thin and wide shape is essential for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape facilitates mounting, particularly when you need to adhere the magnet to another surface.
Design Flexibility: The disc shape of the magnets gives designers with significant flexibility in placing them in constructions, which can be more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of a disc magnet may provide better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. Nevertheless, one should bear in mind that the optimal shape of a magnet is dependent on the specific application and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, might be a better choice.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from immense power, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose their power (of the magnet). After about 10 years, their power decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are extremely resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic field,
- Thanks to the shiny finish and nickel, gold, or silver coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
- They possess very 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...
- Thanks to the flexibility in shaping or the ability to adapt to specific requirements – neodymium magnets can be produced in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which amplifies their universality in usage.
- Key role in the industry of new technologies – find application in hard drives, electric motors, medical apparatus and very highly developed apparatuses.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They are prone to breaking as they are extremely fragile when subjected to a strong 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 simultaneously increases its overall strength,
- They lose power at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent loss of strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the form and height). However, we also offer special magnets with high temperature resistance, up to 230°C,
- Due to their susceptibility to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic, or other moisture-resistant materials when using them outdoors,
- 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
- Possible danger to health from tiny fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally ingested, which becomes significant in the context of children's health. It's also worth noting that miniscule components of these products can be problematic in medical diagnosis after entering the body.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.
In the situation of holding a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in such a case, a cut or a fracture may occur.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Under specific conditions, Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetism when subjected to high temperatures.
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.
Maintain neodymium magnets far from youngest 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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Magnetic 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. In addition, they can damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This is because many of these devices are equipped with a function that deactivates the device in a magnetic field.
Neodymium magnets are over 10 times stronger 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.
Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.
Intense 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 magnetic are highly susceptible to damage, leading to shattering.
Neodymium magnetic are delicate and will crack 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.
