Neodymium (NdFeB) Magnets
Strong Permanent Magnets with High Magnetic Properties
Neodymium magnets (also known as “NdFeB”, “Neo” or “NIB” magnets), are strong permanent magnets made from an alloy of neodymium, iron & boron. Part of the Rare-Earth magnet family, they have the highest magnetic properties of all permanent magnets. Due to their high magnetic strength and relatively low-cost, they are the preferred choice for many consumer, commercial, industrial and technical applications.

Neodymium Magnets Features & Characteristics
-
What is a neodymium magnet? Neodymium magnets are strong permanent magnets, and part of the Rare-Earth magnet family. They are also referred to as “NdFeB”, “Neo” or “NIB” magnets, as they are composed mainly of Neodymium (Nd), Iron (Fe) and Boron (B).
-
Why are neodymium magnets so strong? Neodymium magnets are considered strong because they have a high saturation magnetization and resist demagnetization. Although they are more costly than ceramic magnets, strong neodymium magnets pack a powerful punch! A primary benefit is that you can use a smaller sized NdFeB magnet to achieve the same objective as a larger, less expensive magnet. This can potentially lead to a lower overall cost, as the size of the entire device can shrink.
-
How long do neodymium magnets last? Neodymium magnets will likely lose less than approximately 1% of their flux density over a 10-year period if their physical properties remain intact, and they are not subjected to demagnetizing influences (such as high-temperatures, opposing magnetic fields, radiation etc.).
-
What are the main characteristics of neodymium magnets? Neodymium magnets are far less subject to cracking & chipping and less costly than other rare-earth magnetic material such as amarium cobalt, in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and grades.
-
What is a rare-earth magnet? Rare-earth magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnets available today, and produce significantly stronger magnetic fields.
-
How are magnets rated? Magnets are typically rated by their residual induction, coercive force & maximum energy product. This refers to the maximum strength that the magnetic material can be magnetized to.
-
What safety precautions should be taken into consideration when working with neodymium magnets? Neodymium magnets are hard, fairly brittle, and high in magnetic strength. They can snap together with great force, so please ensure that all personnel handling these magnets are aware to handle them carefully in order to avoid injuries. They can also chip or break if dropped or if snapped together, so please take special care when handling these powerful magnets!
