Neodymium Magnet for Electronics

Electronics and electrical appliances is one of the six application categories listed on the company's site. This page treats it as a category for specification checks: shape, size range, grade temperature series, magnetization direction, fixing and operating temperature. It names no electronic device, no device model and no performance figure, because none is published for this category on the company's pages.

Specification checks for electronics use

Small sizes are common in electronics inquiries, and small sizes make tolerance and direction more important, not less. State the tolerance the drawing requires, using the standard and minimum tolerances published for the chosen shape, and copy the magnetization direction exactly as listed for that shape. If the magnet sits near heat-producing parts, state the temperature it will actually see, and discuss the grade series against the shared temperature table rather than assuming a grade from its name.

Fixing also deserves an explicit line in electronics inquiries, because a magnet that is held by its hole, by adhesive or by a housing behaves differently in assembly even when its dimensions match. The assemblies category page lists assembly names only, with no per-category parameters, so any assembly requirement should be raised as a question with its own dimensions, not assumed from a category name.
