May Corrode in Wet Environments

Neodymium magnets are protected with a nickel-copper plating; however, they are still subject to rusting or corrosion.  Magnets should not be used underwater, and may corrode in moist environments.

Be Careful of Pinches

Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets available. If care is not taken, pinching can occur if not handled properly. Be mindful of how you handle the magnets at all times.

Eye Protection Recommended

Neodymium magnets can chip, crack, or shatter if dropped. Eye protection should be worn when handling to protect from small pieces if magnets chip or shatter.

Keep Away from Children

Our magnets are small and present an extreme choking hazard.  There is a severe health risk if any magnets are swallowed. If any magnets are swallowed contact your doctor immediately.
