Neodymium Magnet Safety Guidelines

This information has been composed specifically for high powered neodymium magnets but many of the points are applicable to neodymium assemblies and other magnetic materials. Please read it carefully before making your purchase.

SAFETY NOTICES

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Neodymium magnets can cause serious harm or in extreme cases even death if inhaled or swallowed. Neodymium magnets are not suitable for children. Please store them safely out of reach of children and pets. If using them for a child's project ensure the child is supervised and the magnets are securely fastened.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Neodymium is a brittle material with a strong magnetic force. If you allow neodymium magnets to crash together or into metal objects the force might shatter them. The broken pieces might be sharp. We recommend using leather gloves and eye protection to handle them.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Large neodymium magnets are very powerful. Using neodymium magnets can introduce a trap hazard. Pinching of the skin can cause injury. We recommend using leather gloves to handle large magnets.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Neodymium magnets produce a strong magnetic field. A moving magnet field can induce an electrical current that can interfere with some electrical devices. These devices may include medical equipment such as pacemakers. Keep neodymium magnets away from electronic devices.

PRODUCT NOTICES

CUSTOMER NOTICE: Neodymium magnets are triple coated to slow down corrosion. Neodymium magnets will still corrode over time especially in a wet environment. Damaging the coating will limit the lifespan of the magnet.

CUSTOMER NOTICE: Neodymium magnets are not magnetically stable when exposed to high temperatures. Heat will weaken the magnetic field. Above a certain temperature the effect is irreversible.
