Prototyping and Engineering Tips from Robogears
Deep-Reach Applications: Because this magnet is 18mm thick, it is perfect for situations where the magnet must act through thick barriers, such as wooden panels or heavy-duty plastic robot shells.
Safe Handling: These magnets are extremely difficult to pull apart directly. Always slide them sideways to break the magnetic bond.
Fragility Alert: Neodymium is essentially a metallic ceramic. If you allow two blocks to "slam" together, they will likely shatter or chip. Always handle with a firm grip.
Mounting Advice: For permanent bonds, use a high-strength epoxy. Lightly scuffing the smooth nickel coating with sandpaper can help improve glue adhesion.
