About These And Other Neodymium Disc Magnets In This Category
Magnets are useful and fun, but can also be dangerous if they aren't handled properly. Little magnets should always be kept away from small children and pets, as they can cause serious harm if they're swallowed. Very strong magnets, like neodymium magnets, can pull together with an extremely substantial force, pinching your fingers if they're caught in between. You always need to keep magnets away from digital devices, such as computers and mobile phones, and away from credit cards (or any other card with a magnetic strip). This is because the information on such devices can be stored using magnetic recording, and may be erased when it comes close to a strong magnetic field. If you're performing a CMS Magnetics project involving magnets, make sure you read the safety precautions for this particular project prior to starting.

What we here at CMS Magnetics concerning how clients select a magnets are by shape (1st) by style (2nd) by how powerful the magnet is (3nd)
Since you are already here I will assume that you are looking for a disc shaped magnet. You probably have an idea how big it needs to be. Let us move onto style.
A below is a bare neodymium disc magnet. The Magnet has a 3 layer coating of nickel- copper -nickel for the magnets protection of the magnet itself.
B is a neodymium disc magnet with a coating of epoxy which is a little tougher for protection of the magnet too.
C is a neodymium disc magnet with a screw hole in it. The hole is countersunk & allows the head of the screw to sink with the head flush even with the surface. This is a very useful feature in that it allows you to fasten a magnet to a non magnetic material such as wood or plastic
D Allows for the mounting of a magnet to non magnetic materials that you may not want to put a screw into.
E is a disc magnet typically used for lifting or magnet fishing. It is a neodymium disc magnet with a steel casing and a hook or loop to attach a rope to. The casing focuses the magnet’s collective power in one direction placing all of its strength in 1 direction instead of 4.

Rare earth element (REE) established Nd-Fe-B and Sm-Co permanent magnets are widely used due to their excellent magnetic properties. An electric car like GM''s Chevrolet Volt utilizes seven pounds of rare-earth magnets, while every clean-energy wind turbine uses over 600 pounds of neodymium (Nd). China accounts for 97 percent of international REE manufacturing. This monopoly produces a strategic vulnerability for the United States and undermines our national security, competitiveness in the defense both the and clean-energy sectors. Rare earth shortages also can cause significant supply-chain issues for U.S. green energy and technology companies. In an ordinary neodymium-iron-boron (Nd-Fe-B) magnet production center, about 20-30 percent of those magnets are wasted as scrap, which is an estimated 1,500-2,500 tons/year. In the event of Sm-Co magnets, about 15-30 percent of these raw materials are wasted as crap in a normal Sm-Co manufacturing site. Hence, the recycling of infrequent earth-based magnets has gained increasing attention and significance from the permanent magnet industry. Up to now, only very little amounts of REEs (estimated at 1%) have been recycled out of pre-consumer magnet scrap. The objective of the project is to create a scalable, efficient and low-cost manufacturing method to recycle infrequent earth-based magnets from industrial scrap into precious magnetic alloys and high-performance magnets with tailored properties for certain applications.
Neodymium is part of the rare earth family of elements listed on the periodic table of the elements. Neodymium creates awesomely powerful magnets. Samarium Cobalt is the other material that is part of the rare earth family from which rare earth magnets are manufactured.
Neodymium was discovered
Rare Earth, a term for 16 separate elements found intermingled in the earth 2 of which are used to make very strong magnets. These elements are mined in China for the most part but the US, Brazil, Australia and other countries do have significant deposits. These elements were discovered in the mid 1800s & more and more uses for these amazing elements have been discovered since.
Rare earth is a term coined for this collection of elements very soon after their discovery because they were actually thought to be scarce. As it turns out these elements are not rare at all but are just slightly less abundant than silicone, or sand.
The separation & segregation or these elements as well as the creation of an alloy that is part neodymium, part Iron & part Boron (Nd Fe B). NdFeB are the chemical symbols for Neodymium, Iron & Boron in that order.
Neodymium is a rare earth element but Neodymium magnets are an alloy Alloy consisting of the three elements (Nd Fe B) Neodymium, Iron & Boron. A magnet consisting of Neodymium is the most popular perhaps because it is the strongest magnetic material on the face of the planet.

Strong Neodymium Disc Magnets
FAQs (Some Questions We Get at CMS) Typically Jeff & Juan
Q. What are the strongest magnets?
A. The strongest permanent magnets are rare earth magnets. The rare earth magnet's family consists of samarium cobalt magnets & Neodymium magnets. The neodymium magnets at grade n52 are currently the strongest magnets worldwide & truly are "industrial strength" rare earth magnets.
Q. What is a permanent magnet?
A. A permanent magnet is a magnet that cannot be turned off as in an electro-magnet. All neodymium magnets are permanent (always attracting)
Q. What is rare earth and where does it come from?
Rare earth is an ore dug from the earth, primarily in China that has 15 metal chemical elements having atomic numbers 57-71. You can find these elements near the bottom of the Periodic Table of the Elements in the lanthanides family.
Q. Where is neodymium found?
A. Neodymium is mined as an ore primarily in China. China is also where almost all of the processing into the neodymium alloy (that we know as neodymium) is done. Neodymium alloy consists of Neodymium, Iron & Boron. Still in China, alloy is shaped into discs, cylinders, rectangles, spheres & more that we know as finished magnets.
Neodymium magnets overall, are the world's strongest permanent magnets. Although, not all neodymium Disc magnets share the same characteristics. The Grade of a Neodymium Magnet will provide an idea of the strength of a neodymium magnet. The most common commercially available grades generally run N35- N52. N35 is the weakest (but by no means weak) and N52 is currently the strongest. There are some special use grades as well. A larger piece of neodymium of a weaker grade may be ultimately stronger than a smaller but higher grade piece. Our strong disc magnets are designed & manufactured to meet stringent quality standards of both external and our own standards.
Neodymium disc magnets Are The Popular Choice For Homes, disc magnets at Work, disc magnets in Shops, DIY, Science, magnetic discs for Hobby & Crafts, Office, Fridge, Science, Fair, Just Plain Fun, magnet discs for Alternative, Medicine, magnet discs for Sorting Metal Items, magnet discs Hold Things Up, round disc magnets Hold Things Down, round disc magnets as Duvet, Cover Closures, Hanging, Art, Scarves, Jewelry, Belts, Handbags & round disc magnets for Classroom Decorations

Using a Magnet as an Electrical Current Detector
Science Buddies Staff. (2017, July 28). Using a Magnet as an Electrical Current Detector. Retrieved from https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-proje...
An electric current produces a magnetic field. You can take advantage of the fact to generate a simple apparatus to check the electrical conductivity of different materials, including both solids and fluids. The detector is composed of a coil of cable, using a magnetic compass within it. You connect one end of the coil into a D-cell battery. The opposite end of the coil is attached to whatever material you're testing, and the substance, then, is attached to the opposite end of this D-cell. To put it differently, the coil is connected in series with whatever material you're testing. To create the coil, use about 10 m (33 ft ) of insulated, 24 gauge cable. It is possible to use a roll of duct tape (or something similar) as the shape for wrap the coil. Leave 30 cm (about a foot) of cable loose at each end of the coil for linking it up to your own circuit. Stand the coil onto its side (you can prop it up with clay to keep it from rolling). Fold a sheet of cardboard to produce a platform for the magnetic compass in the middle of the coil. To examine conductivity of a liquid, then use paper clips recorded on either side of a plastic cup as connectors. When testing different substances, join the battery just long enough to observe the compass needle motion, so the battery will last longer. Other ideas you may research: Learn about the"right hand rule" for magnetic fields created by electrical current. Does the compass needle move as expected based on the perfect hand rule? Learn about Ohm's law and try your sensor in circuits with assorted resistors. Is there a connection between how much the compass needle moves and the current flow in the circuit? (Math, 1981, 13; Gardner, 2004, 80-85)
