Magnet storage and handling safety
Storage, handling, and packaging guidance to avoid chipping, demagnetization, and injury.
Last updated on 2026/01/26
Why handling guidance matters
NdFeB magnets are brittle and can chip or crack. Poor handling can also cause pinching injuries or demagnetization.
Storage guidelines
- Keep magnets separated with spacers.
- Avoid stacking without protective layers.
- Store away from sensitive electronics.
Handling guidelines
- Use gloves for larger magnets.
- Keep fingers clear of closing gaps.
- Use jigs or fixtures for assembly.
Packaging notes
- Use protective sleeves or trays.
- Include warning labels where required.
- Confirm packaging requirements in the RFQ.
