Magnetic Field

Other products

It is the "heart" of every magnetic filter used in industry for cleaning raw materials. It is commonly used for cleaning flour, sugar, plastic granules, as well as oils and coolants. High magnetic induction on the surface allows catching the finest iron particles.
The construction relies on a sealed, welded stainless steel housing, polished smooth. Inside there is a stack of strong neodymium magnets arranged in a special configuration (magnetic circuit). Thanks to this, the rod is durable, hygienic, and easy to keep clean.
Metal filings stick to the surface very strongly, so cleaning requires strength or cleverness. We recommend sticking packing tape to the cluster of filings and tearing it off together with the contaminants. For easier operation, it is worth considering ordering a rod in a version with a cleaning sleeve.
Magnetic induction measured in Gauss (Gs) determines the density of magnetic flux on the rod surface. The economical version (8kGs) handles large pieces of metal perfectly. High Power versions (~12000-14000 Gs) are necessary for catching metallic dust, oxides, and stainless steel after processing.
Yes, as a manufacturer, we make rods of any length and diameter (standard is dia 25mm and 32mm). The rod end is strictly adapted to the fastening system in your device. Contact us for a quote on a non-standard dimension.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Pros

Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • Their magnetic field remains stable, and after around ten years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They have excellent resistance to magnetism drop due to opposing magnetic fields,
  • In other words, due to the aesthetic layer of gold, the element becomes visually attractive,
  • Magnets possess very high magnetic induction on the surface,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to the ability of flexible shaping and customization to individualized requirements, neodymium magnets can be produced in a variety of geometric configurations, which increases their versatility,
  • Universal use in high-tech industry – they find application in computer drives, electric motors, medical equipment, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets and proposals for their use:
  • They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (a factor is the shape as well as dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
  • We recommend cover - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat affects it?

Information about lifting capacity was defined for optimal configuration, including:
  • on a base made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic flux
  • possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
  • with a surface perfectly flat
  • with direct contact (without paint)
  • under axial force direction (90-degree angle)
  • in stable room temperature

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

Effective lifting capacity is affected by specific conditions, such as (from most important):
  • Gap between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet holds significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Plate material – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy steels lower magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.

Warnings
Pacemakers

Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.

Conscious usage

Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and connect with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.

Permanent damage

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Avoid contact if allergic

Some people experience a sensitization to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching may cause an allergic reaction. We suggest wear protective gloves.

Crushing force

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Precision electronics

A strong magnetic field interferes with the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Do not bring magnets close to a device to prevent damaging the sensors.

Danger to the youngest

Neodymium magnets are not intended for children. Eating multiple magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a critical condition and requires urgent medical intervention.

Mechanical processing

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Magnets are brittle

Watch out for shards. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.

Safe distance

Avoid bringing magnets close to a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetism can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.
