Comprehensive Safety Rules
NdFeB Technology requires knowledge.
Neodymium magnets are not toys - they are extremely strong products that require knowledge and caution. Their power is many times greater than traditional ferrite magnets.
In short!
Caution required
Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can react.
Crushing risk
Big blocks can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand between two strong magnets.
Fragile material
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets will cause them breaking into shards.
Keep away from children
Adult use only. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
Pacemakers
Patients with a pacemaker should keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the implant.
Magnetic media
Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).
GPS Danger
Remember: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your mobile, device, and GPS.
Nickel coating and allergies
Studies show that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands or choose encased magnets.
Operating temperature
Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.
Fire warning
Machining of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
