What Makes Neodymium Magnets So Powerful? The Basics: What Is a Neodymium Magnet? Neodymium (Nd–Fe–B) magnets are the strongest type of commercially available permanent magnets, made from an alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron (Nd₂Fe₁₄B). They were first developed in the early 1980s and quickly became the dominant choice for high-performance magnetic applications. Magnetic

Adams sells most of its standard energy flexible magnetic material magnetized in multi-pole configuration. It is magnetized with its strength concentrated near the surface on one side of the magnet in order to obtain maximum holding power from the material. This design reduces the reach out of magnet strength but still allows the magnet to
