Neodymium Magnets

High power magnets with a wide range of applications achieve maximum performance while maintaining minimum size. They can be made in blocks, rings, arcs, discs, spheres, trapezoids, triangles, and many other shapes.

  • Rare Earth magnet
  • Offers the highest Br (residual induction) and Hci (intrinsic coercivity) values
  • The strongest commercially available magnet – up to 56 MGOe
  • Susceptible to corrosion due to the Neodymium-rich phase at grain boundaries
  • Can operate in environments up to 220°C (428°F) or higher with proper thermal design

Neodymium magnets have a wide range of uses from renewable energy, powering electric car motors, kinetic art pieces, medical devices such as MRIs and magnetic levitation as seen in maglev train systems.

Some magnet grades require export licenses. Others don’t. Choosing the right one can save you up to 16 weeks of lead time.


No License Required

These materials typically ship without delays, provided they are certified Dy/Tb-free:
•  Ferrite
•  Alnico
•  Bonded Neodymium
•  Sintered Neodymium N45SH or below

We provide third-party certification to confirm the material is free from Dysprosium (Dy) and Terbium (Tb) — meaning:
•  No end-user disclosure
•  No export red tape
•  Trackable, transparent delivery timelines

License Required

Magnets containing Dy, Tb, or Samarium (Sm) such as:
• N48SH and above
• SmCo

...require an export license.


 Expected lead time:
• ~70 days for license approval
• ~2 weeks air freight
• ~16 weeks total


Magnet Applications helps you choose the right material and avoid delays — backed by certified compliance.

 

More About Engineered Neodymium Magnets and Magnetic Assemblies

Neodymium magnets are a type of rare earth magnet and are the most common rare earth permanent magnets in the world. They are composed of Neodymium (Nd), Iron (Fe) and Boron (B), and are some of the most powerful permanent magnets known to man. However, these magnets are vulnerable to corrosion if they are exposed to the elements. To protect the magnet from corrosion, the magnet is usually coated with nickel. Other coating options are aluminum, zinc, tin, copper, epoxy, silver and gold.

Extremely strong and affordable, neodymium magnets are commonly used in consumer products such cell phones, loudspeakers, fasteners and toys. Industrially, they are used in metal detectors, oil filters, alternators, flow meters and as clamps by welders. MRI machines, hybrid and electric vehicles, and wind turbines all employ neodymium magnets. These high power magnets achieve maximum performance while maintaining minimum size. They can be made in blocks, rings, arcs, discs, spheres, trapezoids, triangles, and many other shapes. Ni-Cu-Ni plating is most applied and other coatings/finishes are available. Radially aligned magnets are available to replace arcs and grain boundary diffusion is available in commercial quantities.
