These 5mm magnetic balls spheres magnets are tiny! They are small but surprisingly strong, despite their diminutive size.
These precision neodymium sphere magnets are available in either 3mm or 25mm diameter. They are commonly used in sculptures, artistic displays and experiments. The power of these magnets should not be underestimated; there is a risk that these magnets will chip and break if they are allowed to slam together. Because of this they are not suitable for children and should not be bought as toys.
- 5mm diameter sphere
- Each sphere’s north and south poles are on opposite sides of the sphere
- Each magnet can support 0.4kg pull vertically from the magnetic face when in flush contact with a mild steel surface
- Each magnet is coated with three layers of nickel, copper and nickel to improve corrosion resistance and provide a smooth and clean finish
Magnetic spheres are mainly used for creative applications rather than manufacturing or engineering purposes. They make great accessories for artists and designers who use them for creative displays. Despite their relatively small diameter each magnet can still support an astonishing 0.4 vertically from the magnetic face when in flush contact with a mild steel surface.

I saw these magnetic ball magnets being demonstrated recently at a Toy shop and was so impressed that when I got home I checked on umagnets.com to see which retailers were selling them. I settled on this choice from ‘UMAGNETS’.

exactly the same as the neoshperes I’ve seen advertised but much cheaper.
