Ceramic magnets, usually referred to as ferrite magnets, are a cost-effective and less expensive type of permanent magnet magnetic material.Today's article will introduce you to the ceramic magnets you are interested in is it strong? As well as its magnetic properties compared with neodymium magnets and flexible rubber magnets.
Tensile strength of ceramic magnets;
The pulling force of ceramic magnet is about 1/5~1/3 of neodymium magnet, the value of pulling force varies according to the performance level of magnet, size, direction of pulling force, etc. The pulling strength of tiny round ferrite magnet may be more than ten grams, and the pulling force of large ceramic ferrite magnet may be up to tens of kilograms.
Ceramic ferrite magnet surface gauss strength;
Ceramic ferrite magnet surface magnetic field strength range is generally around 400-1100 gauss, some high performance multi-pole magnetic ring can reach around 1700 gauss.

Are ceramic magnets strong?
Depending on who you are comparing it to, if you are comparing it to a flexible rubber ferrite magnet (typically only 3-500 gauss), the ceramic magnet is obviously stronger in pull. If it's compared to neodymium magnets (Around 2000-5600 gauss), then neodymium magnets are so much stronger and provide the same magnetic field in a small volume.
Ceramic magnets offer some magnetic advantages, with a higher strength than rubber ferrite magnets, but nowhere near as strong as NdFeB magnets. However, it still occupies an important position in many industrial and daily-use products by virtue of its lower cost and stronger corrosion resistance. If the application requires a higher magnetic force, NdFeB magnets are undoubtedly a better choice, but they are also relatively more costly. Therefore, when choosing magnets, you need to weigh factors such as magnetic force, durability and cost according to actual needs.
