Shopping tips
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- They do not lose their strength around ten years – the loss of strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- They remain magnetized despite exposure to strong external fields,
- Thanks to the shiny finish and silver coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
- The outer field strength of the magnet shows advanced magnetic properties,
- With the right combination of compounds, they reach significant thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the design),
- The ability for custom shaping and customization to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which amplifies their functionality across industries,
- Key role in new technology industries – they are utilized in HDDs, electric motors, medical equipment or even high-tech tools,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling strength in compact dimensions, which allows for use in small systems
Disadvantages of magnetic elements:
- They are prone to breaking when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, we recommend in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from fracture and additionally strengthens its overall robustness,
- They lose power at extreme temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent decline in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the shape and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is recommended to use sealed magnets made of rubber for outdoor use,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining threads in neodymium magnets is restricted,
- Potential hazard from tiny pieces may arise, in case of ingestion, which is notable in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny components from these assemblies may disrupt scanning when ingested,
- Due to a complex production process, their cost is considerably higher,
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?
The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, determined in ideal conditions, namely:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a refined outer layer
- with no separation
- under perpendicular detachment force
- at room temperature
Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors
Practical lifting force is dependent on factors, listed from the most critical to the less significant:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
- Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
- Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
- Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
- Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
- Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.
* Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets
Neodymium magnets should not be near 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 can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.
Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets generate intense magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other due to their immense internal force, causing the skin and other body parts to get pinched and resulting in significant swellings.
If the joining of neodymium magnets is not under control, then they may crumble and crack. You can't move them to each other. At a distance less than 10 cm you should have them very strongly.
Neodymium magnetic are known for their fragility, which can cause them to become damaged.
Neodymium magnets are characterized by significant fragility. Neodymium magnetic are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable as steel. In the event of a collision between two magnets, there may be a scattering of fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is crucial in such a situation.
Comparing neodymium magnets to ferrite magnets (found in speakers), they are 10 times stronger, and their strength can shock you.
Please review the information on how to handle neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body, as well as prevent unintentional disruption to the magnets.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Keep neodymium magnets away from the wallet, computer, and TV.
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. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.
The magnet is coated with nickel. Therefore, exercise caution 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
It is important to maintain neodymium magnets away from youngest children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. Small magnets can pose a serious choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing significant injuries, and even death.
