Field Strength

Other products

This shape makes operating a whiteboard convenient, fast, and does not break nails. Using neodymium (NdFeB) guarantees huge holding force with small size. They are aesthetic, colorful, and do not scratch the board surface thanks to a smooth base.
Despite inconspicuous size, one pin with a neodymium magnet can hold even 15-20 A4 paper sheets. They guarantee that your notes and important information will stay in place.
At home, they will serve to attach shopping lists, bills, photos, and drawings to the fridge. You can use them for board games (as pawns) and educational games with children. Note: Special, even stronger neodymium magnets are needed for glass boards.
Although the magnet is tightly sealed in a plastic housing, the product is small and poses a swallowing risk. The plastic housing protects the magnet itself from breaking, increasing usage safety.
You can choose colors matching office decor, company logo, or child's preferences. Check purchasing options (pieces or blisters) in the product details above.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They retain magnetic properties for around 10 years – the drop is just ~1% (according to analyses),
  • They maintain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
  • By using a smooth coating of nickel, the element has an professional look,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a strong magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to the potential of precise forming and customization to unique projects, magnetic components can be modeled in a wide range of geometric configurations, which expands the range of possible applications,
  • Key role in high-tech industry – they are commonly used in hard drives, drive modules, diagnostic systems, also other advanced devices.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Disadvantages

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets lose their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic mechanism.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small components of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat it depends on?

Holding force of 0.00 kg is a measurement result performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • using a plate made of high-permeability steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
  • possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Key elements affecting lifting force

In practice, the actual holding force is determined by several key aspects, ranked from the most important:
  • Clearance – the presence of foreign body (paint, tape, air) acts as an insulator, which reduces power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Base smoothness – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Thermal factor – hot environment weakens pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
GPS Danger

A powerful magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Do not bring magnets close to a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.

Finger safety

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Demagnetization risk

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Fire warning

Dust produced during machining of magnets is combustible. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.

Adults only

Neodymium magnets are not suitable for play. Eating a few magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which constitutes a direct threat to life and necessitates immediate surgery.

Protective goggles

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.

Respect the power

Before use, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Sensitization to coating

Allergy Notice: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If skin irritation appears, immediately stop working with magnets and wear gloves.

Danger to pacemakers

Medical warning: Strong magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Data carriers

Do not bring magnets close to a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.
