A few thoughts on pull force. As with rating the effectiveness of any product, the pull force can be a guide but not an absolute. Optimum ratings of pull force depend on usage and the nature of the object being pulled. While in a Laboratory setting one can establish a high score for a specific […]

The “N value” of a neodymium magnet refers to its grade and is a measure of the magnet’s maximum energy product, specifically indicated in Mega-Gauss Oersteds (MGOe). This value tells you about the strength of the magnet: Practical Implications Example Table Grade Strength (MGOe) Max Temp (°C) Use Case N35 35 80 General purpose N42

The issue of magnet strength is an important consideration depending on the specific project you are using magnets. Wild as it may seem a magnet can be too strong for an application, such as door stays or product holders. A magnet that is too strong may cause a more forceful close than necessary. It can

Block magnets are square, rectangular or cubed. They have excellent surface area for maximizing pull force. While still remaining thin and minimizing weight. Thick magnets such as cylinder magnets given their weight are not as effective in providing pull force as block magnets. Their thickness does not increase pull force in comparison to the thinner

How Long Do Magnets Last The shelf life of small neodymium magnets is virtually indefinite under normal storage conditions. Neodymium magnets are known for their exceptional stability and long-term durability, which makes them suitable for various applications, even when stored for extended periods. If stored properly, neodymium magnets will retain their magnetic properties for many
