Neodymium Magnets

• Diameter: 3 mm (1/8')
• Thickness: 2 mm (1/12')
• Quantity: 50
• Magnetization: N52
• Pulling Forces: 252 gr (magnet to magnet)
• Material: NdFeB
• Coating: Nickel Plated (Ni-Cu-Ni)

The neodymium magnet is the strongest type of permanent magnet available commercially. They have replaced other types of magnets in many applications in modern products that require strong permanent magnets. The ratings N35 and N52 are a measure of the quality of the magnet material. The higher the grade (the number following the 'N'), the stronger the magnet.

This will explain two things:

• How much "magnetic energy" per volume is contained in this magnetic material
• Up to what temperature the magnet can be used

Magnets starting with "N" should be used up to 80°C (176°F). The highest grade of neodymium magnet currently available is N52. If you take two magnets of different sizes and magnetization from our range, the difference in their strength is more due to the differences in their volume than to differences in their magnetization. That is why the larger magnet is mostly the stronger magnet, even when its magnetization rating is somewhat lower.

Pulling Forces: Expected pulling forces based on extensive product testing. The Surface Field data applies only to points along the central axis of the magnet and assumes a single magnet in free space.

If you intend to use them for wargames and miniatures, we would recommend the following:

• Neodymium Magnet - 3x0.5 mm, for swapping weapons, heads, arms, etc.
• Neodymium Magnet - 3x1 mm, for swapping weapons, heads, arms, etc.
• Neodymium Magnet - 3x2 mm, for plastic base miniatures.
• Neodymium Magnet - 5x2 mm, for metal base miniatures.
