Instructions for Safe Handling of Neodymium Magnets.
The strength of neodymium magnets is greater than other types of magnets
Neodymium magnets are extremely powerful magnets that can be hazardous in specific circumstances. It is important to remember that neodymium magnets are extremely powerful and can attract other metal objects, which can lead to injury or destruction to the body.
If you need to work with neodymium magnets, it is important to exercise caution and follow appropriate safety measures, such as wearing appropriate protective equipment (e.g., protective goggles), avoiding working with magnets near computers or other electronic devices, and keeping magnets apart from each other to prevent them from attracting and potentially causing harm or shards to be ejected in case of collision, which can endanger your eyes.
Neodymium magnets are also extremely hard and fragile, so it is advisable to avoid strikes, throwing, or dropping magnets as they can easily break or shatter.
In conclusion, neodymium magnets are powerful tools that can be hazardous if not used with proper care, so it is important to observe security precautions when using them.
Children should under no circumstances use neodymium magnets for entertainment purposes.
If you want to minimize pain, it is recommended to apply ice to pinched skin. In the case of contact with larger magnets, significant swelling can occur.
The use of magnets must take place on a metal table or on a magnetic surface. Neodymium magnets should be where you put them and not "fly" simultaneously to others.
When working with magnets, you should wear safety glasses and work gloves (if necessary).
Remember to keep your magnets at least 20 cm away from sensitive electrical devices and storage media.
You cannot drill or heat neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets retain their magnetic properties for decades when properly handled and stored at room temperature.
When holding magnets in your hands, you should remember to keep your hands at a proper distance from each other.
To separate magnets, grasp the top magnet, remove it from the stack, and pull it apart quickly.
If you injure yourself and experience significant injury, seek immediate medical help.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.
Magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel 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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
In certain circumstances, Neodymium magnets may experience demagnetization when subjected to high temperatures.
Neodymium magnetic are highly susceptible to damage, resulting in their cracking.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. Despite being made of metal as well as coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. In the case of a collision between two magnets, there can be a scattering of small sharp metal fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is essential.
Do not give neodymium magnets to children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Do not allow children to play with them. In the case of swallowing multiple magnets simultaneously, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to death.
Neodymium magnets are over 10 times stronger than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their strength can surprise you.
Make sure to review all the information we have provided. This will help you avoid harm to your body and damage to the magnets.
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
In the case of neodymium magnets, there is a strong magnetic field. As a result, it interferes with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.
Neodymium Magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.
Magnets will crack or crumble with uncontrolled joining to each other. You can't move them to each other. At a distance less than 10 cm you should have them very firmly.
Keep neodymium magnets away from the wallet, computer, and TV.
Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.
