Frequently asked questions

How much will a block magnet really hold?

The catalogue force is measured in full contact with smooth steel at least 10 mm thick, pulled perpendicular, at about 20 °C. On 1 mm sheet about 50% of that value remains, on 0.5 mm about 25%. Mounted on a vertical wall the realistic figure is 20–30%, because the load is then in shear rather than in tension.

What is the maximum working temperature?

Standard N-series grades up to 80 °C, and N50, N52 and N54 up to 60 °C. Above the maximum working temperature the loss stops being reversible. The Curie temperature, at which magnetic properties are lost completely, is about 310 °C.

What safety factor should I allow?

At least twice the mass of the item, and three to five times for vertical mounting. The margin covers sheet thickness, surface condition, any layer of paint or rust, and vibration.

Magnetic force weakens drastically per each millimeter of gap. Keep in mind that even the smallest gap (e.g., dirt, paint, rust) strongly reduces the pull force. Magnets work strongest in perfect adhesion; air break drastically cuts the force. Analyze how rapidly the load capacity fall, when the product does not touch directly to the metal substrate. When designing the assembly, discard additional spacers.

The following data presents the estimated weight limit needed to cause the sliding of the magnet down on a upright steel wall (considering standard friction coefficient). The holding force varies with the air gap between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (shearing) - vertical pull
MPL 10x10x10 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	1.15 kg / 2.54 lbs 1152.0 g / 11.3 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.77 kg / 1.69 lbs 768.0 g / 7.5 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.38 kg / 0.85 lbs 384.0 g / 3.8 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	1.92 kg / 4.23 lbs 1920.0 g / 18.8 N

When placing a holder on a upright plane (e.g., a car body), it will only hold only about 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravity as well as a weak degree of grip mean that holders move down faster than they pop off the substrate. Want to create a wall mount? Remember that the sliding force is noticeably lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a smooth steel, the holder will slip down under a significantly smaller cargo. Using a rubber pad can effectively raise the stability.

Table 4: Steel thickness (saturation) - sheet metal selection
MPL 10x10x10 / N38

Steel thickness (mm)	% power	Real pull force (kg/lbs/g/N)

12 mm	100%	3.84 kg / 8.47 lbs 3840.0 g / 37.7 N

A thin metal plate is unable to focus the full magnetic flux, which weakens actual performance of the holder. If you mount a strong magnet to a thin surface, the magnetism will pass right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To squeeze 100% of this magnet's power, you need a suitably thick piece of metal. The material oversaturation means that on sheet metal structures (e.g., thin profiles), the product holds weaker. We recommend selecting the steel dimension according to the table below.

Classic neodymiums change their properties parameters past the thermal threshold. Protect against heat – heat can permanently damage this product. With every degree above norm, the neodymium's force temporarily decreases. Avoid using this product close to ovens exceeding its working range. Too high temperature will result in permanent loss of magnetic properties.

*Important note: Heat tolerance depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (low permeance coefficient) are more susceptible to demagnetization sooner compared to rod magnets. The danger warning in the table signals permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two strong neodymiums interact from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and sheet combination. The connection of two magnets generates a stronger field and a larger range of performance. Planning to create a solid fastener? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Remember that when attracting two neodymiums, the pinch force is extreme. The levitation is slightly lower than the connection force, but still large.
*Field value for N-N configuration is approximately ~0 Gs at the midpoint between the magnets (caused by magnetic field nullification).
* Results refer to sliding force of a pair of matching magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Table 7: Safety (HSE) (implants) - precautionary measures

Extremely neodym field is a real danger to electronics as well as pacemakers. These neodymiums generate a field that disrupts operation of sensitive medical devices. Notice: the unseen radiation penetrates the body and housings. Exceptional care must be exercised by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. The risk also applies to: automatic timepieces, car keys, membranes, and screens. Do not place the magnet near cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are delicate – a violent impact against metal causes immediate chipping. Pay attention to connection velocity – a magnet released freely becomes dangerous. Striking energy can trigger coating fragments or injury to fingers. Hold the magnet firmly during mounting so it doesn't hit with great force against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h almost guarantees destruction of the neodymium. Wear eye protection when handling with large magnets.

Warning: This magnet has a standard nickel coating. After use in water, it must be dried and maintained immediately, otherwise it will rust!

Water displaces steel, making heavy objects slightly lighter. As a result, your magnet will pull a heavier object from the bottom than if you lifted it in the air.

1. Wall mount (shear)

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) severely weakens the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.

4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.84

The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. The solid red line represents the demagnetization curve (material potential), while the dashed blue line is the load line based on the magnet's geometry. The P_c (Permeance Coefficient), also known as the load line slope, is a dimensionless value that describes the relationship between the magnet's shape and its magnetic stability. The intersection of these two lines (the black dot) is the operating point — it determines the actual magnetic flux density generated by the magnet in this specific configuration. A higher P_c value means the magnet is more 'slender' (tall relative to its area), resulting in a higher operating point and better resistance to irreversible demagnetization caused by external fields or temperature. A value of 0.42 is relatively low (typical for flat magnets), meaning the operating point is closer to the 'knee' of the curve — caution is advised when operating at temperatures near the maximum limit to avoid strength loss.

Component MPL 10x10x10 / N38 features a flat shape and professional pulling force, making it an ideal solution for building separators and machines. This magnetic block with a force of 37.71 N is ready for shipment in 24h, allowing for rapid realization of your project. The durable anti-corrosion layer ensures a long lifespan in a dry environment, protecting the core from oxidation.

The key to success is sliding the magnets along their largest connection plane (using e.g., the edge of a table), which is easier than trying to tear them apart directly. To separate the MPL 10x10x10 / N38 model, firmly slide one magnet over the edge of the other until the attraction force decreases. We recommend care, because after separation, the magnets may want to violently snap back together, which threatens pinching the skin. Never use metal tools for prying, as the brittle NdFeB material may chip and damage your eyes.

They constitute a key element in the production of generators and material handling systems. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 3.84 kg), they are ideal as hidden locks in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Their rectangular shape facilitates precise gluing into milled sockets in wood or plastic.

For mounting flat magnets MPL 10x10x10 / N38, it is best to use strong epoxy glues (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. For lighter applications or mounting on smooth surfaces, branded foam tape (e.g., 3M VHB) will work, provided the surface is perfectly degreased. Avoid chemically aggressive glues or hot glue, which can demagnetize neodymium (above 80°C).

The magnetic axis runs through the shortest dimension, which is typical for gripper magnets. In practice, this means that this magnet has the greatest attraction force on its main planes (10x10 mm), which is ideal for flat mounting. This is the most popular configuration for block magnets used in separators and holders.

This model is characterized by dimensions 10x10x10 mm, which, at a weight of 7.5 g, makes it an element with high energy density. It is a magnetic block with dimensions 10x10x10 mm and a self-weight of 7.5 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Pros and cons of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

They retain full power for nearly ten years – the drop is just ~1% (according to analyses),
They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
Thanks to the metallic finish, the surface of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an professional appearance,
Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet turns out to be strong,
Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, enabling functioning at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
Due to the option of free forming and customization to custom needs, magnetic components can be manufactured in a wide range of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
Key role in future technologies – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, motor assemblies, medical devices, as well as complex engineering applications.
Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Disadvantages

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets and ways of using them

Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (a factor is the shape as well as dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore when using outdoors, we suggest using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
We suggest casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex forms.
Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,

Holding force characteristics

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The force parameter is a theoretical maximum value executed under specific, ideal conditions:

with the use of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
characterized by lack of roughness
with zero gap (no paint)
for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
in neutral thermal conditions

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

Holding efficiency impacted by specific conditions, including (from most important):

Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
Base massiveness – insufficiently thick plate does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets

Serious injuries

Large magnets can break fingers instantly. Do not put your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.

Machining danger

Dust produced during cutting of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Nickel allergy

Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If redness happens, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.

Choking Hazard

Strictly store magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.

Protective goggles

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them breaking into shards.

Heat sensitivity

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Impact on smartphones

Navigation devices and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.

Magnetic media

Avoid bringing magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Do not underestimate power

Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Life threat

Patients with a ICD have to keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the operation of the implant.
