1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.28

This simulation demonstrates the magnetic stability of the selected magnet under specific geometric conditions. 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 Pc (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 Pc 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.

The ring-shaped magnet MP 14x8/4x3 / N38 is created for mechanical fastening, where glue might fail or be insufficient. Thanks to the hole (often for a screw), this model enables quick installation to wood, wall, plastic, or metal. This product with a force of 2.53 kg works great as a cabinet closure, speaker holder, or spacer element in devices.
This is a crucial issue when working with model MP 14x8/4x3 / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle and inelastic. One turn too many can destroy the magnet, so do it slowly. It's a good idea to use a flexible washer under the screw head, which will cushion the stresses. Remember: cracking during assembly results from material properties, not a product defect.
Moisture can penetrate micro-cracks in the coating and cause oxidation of the magnet. Damage to the protective layer during assembly is the most common cause of rusting. This product is dedicated for inside building use. For outdoor applications, we recommend choosing magnets in hermetic housing or additional protection with varnish.
A screw or bolt with a thread diameter smaller than 8/4 mm fits this model. If the magnet does not have a chamfer (cone), we recommend using a screw with a flat or cylindrical head, or possibly using a washer. Aesthetic mounting requires selecting the appropriate head size.
It is a magnetic ring with a diameter of 14 mm and thickness 3 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 2.53 kg (force ~24.85 N). The mounting hole diameter is precisely 8/4 mm.
The poles are located on the planes with holes, not on the sides of the ring. If you want two such magnets screwed with cones facing each other (faces) to attract, you must connect them with opposite poles (N to S). When ordering a larger quantity, magnets are usually packed in stacks, where they are already naturally paired.

Pros as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Pros

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • They possess excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties as a result of external magnetic sources,
  • In other words, due to the metallic surface of gold, the element is aesthetically pleasing,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet remains strong,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Due to the potential of flexible shaping and customization to specialized solutions, neodymium magnets can be produced in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
  • Huge importance in advanced technology sectors – they are commonly used in HDD drives, electromotive mechanisms, diagnostic systems, as well as complex engineering applications.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complicated shapes - recommended is casing - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these magnets are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities

Pull force analysis

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnetwhat contributes to it?

The declared magnet strength represents the peak performance, measured under ideal test conditions, meaning:
  • on a base made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
  • possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with a surface free of scratches
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

In real-world applications, the real power depends on several key aspects, ranked from crucial:
  • Space between magnet and steel – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Direction of force – maximum parameter is available only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Plate material – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic properties and holding force.
  • Surface quality – the more even the surface, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was determined using a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Warnings
Product not for children

Product intended for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Store out of reach of children and animals.

ICD Warning

Patients with a heart stimulator must keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the functioning of the life-saving device.

Flammability

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Finger safety

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can result in hematomas, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.

Conscious usage

Before use, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.

Thermal limits

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, look for HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Beware of splinters

Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Metal Allergy

Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation appears, immediately stop working with magnets and use protective gear.

Threat to navigation

GPS units and smartphones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Magnetic media

Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Attention! Details about hazards in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
