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 can be beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Applications in Technology: They are often used in different 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 you need to adhere the magnet to a surface.
Design Flexibility: The disc shape of the magnets allows 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 can provide better stability, reducing the risk of sliding or rotating. It should be noted that the optimal shape of a magnet depends on the specific application and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be a better choice.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from immense power, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose strength over time - after approximately 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are extremely resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic field,
- In other words, thanks to the glossy nickel, gold, or silver finish, the element gains an visually attractive 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 or adaptation to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be produced in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which enhances their versatility in applications.
- Significant importance in the industry of new technologies – find application in HDD drives, electric drive mechanisms, medical equipment or other modern machines.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They can break 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,
- They lose strength 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,
- 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 or a magnetic holder is recommended due to the limited possibilities of manufacturing threads or complex shapes in the magnet
- Possible danger arising from small pieces of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is crucial in the aspect of protecting young children. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products can hinder the diagnostic process after entering the body.
Handle Neodymium Magnets with Caution
Comparing neodymium magnets to ferrite magnets (found in speakers), they are 10 times more powerful, and their power can shock you.
To use magnets properly, it is best to familiarize yourself with our information beforehand. This will help you avoid significant harm to your body and the magnets themselves.
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 attract. Magnets, depending on their size, are able even cut off a finger or alternatively there can be a significant pressure or even a fracture.
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.
The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful 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 can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Although magnets have shown to retain their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, this temperature may vary depending on the type of material, shape, and intended use of the magnet.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. However, if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the device when it is in a magnetic field.
Do not give neodymium magnets to children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Do not allow children to play with them. They can be a significant choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing significant injuries, and even death.
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.
Magnets made of neodymium are noted for being fragile, which can cause them to become damaged.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. They are coated with a shiny nickel plating similar to steel, but they are not as hard. At the moment of connection between the magnets, tiny sharp metal fragments can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
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, or other devices. They can also damage videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
