H&S Instructions for Magnets
World's strongest magnets requires care.
NdFeB magnets are not toys - they are powerful tools that require knowledge and caution. Their power is significantly greater than traditional ferrite magnets.
Key points!
Caution required
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can react.
Finger safety
Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Never put your hand between two attracting surfaces.
Magnets are brittle
Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.
Do not give to children
Strictly store magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
Medical interference
Individuals with a ICD should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the operation of the implant.
Cards and drives
Powerful magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.
Phone sensors
Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts precision electronics. Keep a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and navigation systems.
Sensitization to coating
Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation occurs, immediately stop working with magnets and use protective gear.
Heat warning
Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Flammability
Machining of neodymium magnets poses a fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
