24k Gold Finish, 6-Sided Conductivity, Jewelry-Quality Polish We manufacture Custom Neodymium Cubes finished with a premium 24k Gold Plating. Standard silver (Nickel) magnets look industrial. Gold Plated cubes are designed to be seen. They offer a brilliant, non-tarnishing yellow-gold finish. This appearance matches standard jewelry hardware and gold-plated PCB contacts. These magnets are the preferred choice for: Magnetic Jewelry Clasps, Modular Electronic Blocks, and Executive Desk Accessories. Their visual appeal and skin safety are paramount. Why Gold Cubes? A gold cube is more than just a shiny object; it is a functional component. 1. Omni-Directional Conductivity: The Application: Modular electronics or “Snap-Together” circuitry. The Logic: A cube has 6 faces. In a circuit design, a Gold Plated cube acts as a 3D Electrical Node. It can transmit power or data signals through any of its faces with low contact resistance. Unlike Nickel which oxidizes over time. 2. Biocompatibility (The “No-Rash” Guarantee): The Application: Jewelry and Wearables. The Problem: Standard Nickel magnets contain Nickel. Some people are allergic to Nickel. Prolonged skin contact causes dermatitis. The Solution: Gold is hypoallergenic. Coating the magnet in Gold makes it safe for necklaces, bracelets, and hearing aids that touch the user’s skin. 3. Corrosion Resistance (Sweat Proof): The Benefit: Gold is a noble metal. It does not tarnish when exposed to human sweat, perfumes, or humidity. Ensure the magnet keeps its high-value look for years. Manufacturing Focus: Corner Integrity Plating a cube is harder than plating a disc. The corners are the weak point. The “Dog-Bone” Effect: The Physics: During the electro-plating process, electrical current concentrates at sharp points. On a cube, this means the Gold builds up on the 8 corners (making them bulge). And the plated gold is thin in the middle of the flat faces. Our Solution: We apply a Heavy Barrel Tumble to the raw magnets before plating. This rounds off the sharp corners significantly. The Result: A smooth, uniform Gold layer that adheres perfectly to the corners. And not chipping or flaking during impact. Ideal Applications Magnetic Jewelry: Clasps for necklaces and bracelets (replacing difficult mechanical lobsters). Modular Electronics: “Pogo-less” magnetic connectors for charging docks. Medical Devices: Implantable device chargers (external mating part). Luxury Packaging: Gold closures for premium perfume or watch boxes. Safety Advisory: Not for Children Due to their shape and color, Gold Cubes can look like toys. B2B Only: We supply these magnets for Industrial and Commercial manufacturing only. Swallowing Hazard: High-powered Neodymium cubes are extremely dangerous if swallowed. They are strictly regulated in many regions (such as the USA/CPSC). They must not be marketed or used in children’s toys. Ordering Guide To quote these accurately, please specify: 1). Dimensions: Side Length (e.g., 3mm, 5mm, 10mm). 2). Magnetic Grade: – N35: Sufficient for most jewelry (easier to pull apart). – N50/N52: Required for heavy electrical connections. 3). Visual Standard: “Is this for a cosmetic surface?” – We can perform extra visual sorting to remove minor pits/scratches. 4). Quantity: Gold plating baths require minimum batch sizes for efficiency.
