Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
Contact Surface: Thanks to their flat shape, disc magnets provide a significant contact surface with other elements, which can be beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Applications in Technology: They are often employed in many devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where a flat shape is essential for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape makes mounting, especially when there's a need to adhere the magnet to another surface.
Design Flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets allows designers with greater flexibility in arranging them in devices, which can 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. However, it's important to remember that the optimal shape of a magnet is dependent on the specific application and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, such as cylindrical or spherical, may be more suitable.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from immense strength, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose their power (of the magnet). After about 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are highly resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic field,
- In other words, thanks to the shiny coating of nickel, gold, or silver, the element acquires an aesthetic appearance,
- They exhibit 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 form) even at temperatures of 230°C or higher...
- Thanks to the flexibility in shaping and the ability to adapt to specific requirements – neodymium magnets can be produced in various forms and dimensions, which expands the range of their possible uses.
- Wide application in modern technologies – are used in computer drives, electric motors, medical apparatus and other modern machines.
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 metal holder. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts and at the same time 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 shape and height). However, we also offer special magnets with high temperature resistance, up to 230°C,
- 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 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 can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes significant in the context of children's health. Additionally, small elements of these products can complicate diagnosis when they are in the body.
Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets
Magnets made of neodymium are extremely delicate, they easily fall apart as well as can become damaged.
Neodymium magnets are delicate and will crack 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.
It is essential to maintain neodymium magnets out of reach from children.
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.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.
Magnetic fields can interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in aviation and maritime navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices. There are neodymium magnets in every smartphone, for example, in the microphone and speakers.
Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, etc. devices. They can also damage devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious if you have an 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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.
In the case of holding a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in that situation, a cut or a fracture may occur.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Although magnets are generally resilient, their ability to retain their magnetic strength can be influenced by factors like the type of material used, the magnet's shape, and the intended purpose for which it is employed.
