Grip strength weakens drastically with every mm of distance. Keep in mind that even the smallest gap (e.g., contamination, paint, dust) strongly weakens the grip. Magnets hold optimally during direct contact; distance nullifies the force. Observe how flashily the pull force fall, when the magnet does not adhere tightly to the steel surface. When calculating the assembly, eliminate redundant distances.

Table 2: Shear force (vertical surface)
MP 16x12x2 / N38

50 mm	Stal (~0.2)	0.00 kg / 0.00 pounds 0.0 g / 0.0 N

This section indicates the theoretical force sufficient to start the downward movement of the magnet downwards on a vertical steel plate (considering typical friction coefficient). The holding force depends on the gap size between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (shearing) - vertical pull
MP 16x12x2 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.20 kg / 0.45 pounds 204.0 g / 2.0 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.14 kg / 0.30 pounds 136.0 g / 1.3 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.07 kg / 0.15 pounds 68.0 g / 0.7 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.34 kg / 0.75 pounds 340.0 g / 3.3 N

When placing a magnet on a vertical plane (e.g., a fridge), it will maintain just about 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravity as well as a low friction coefficient influence the fact that products slip faster than they detach. Designing a hanger? Note that the sliding force is significantly lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a painted metal, the element will slide down under a significantly smaller load. Using a rubber layer can effectively raise the stability.

12 mm	100%	0.68 kg / 1.50 pounds 680.0 g / 6.7 N

A thin sheet is incapable of absorb the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the holder. Should you install a neodymium to a thin surface, the magnetism will pass right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To utilize the maximum of this neodymium's potential, you require a sufficiently solid backing of steel. The saturation phenomenon causes that on delicate walls (e.g., appliance housings), the holder shows lower pull force. We recommend selecting the steel cross-section according to the table below.

Classic neodymiums lose strength past the thermal threshold. Watch out for overheating – high temperature can permanently damage this product. As the temperature rises, the neodymium's capacity briefly drops. Avoid using this product close to heaters higher than its safe range. Too high temperature will result in irreversible degradation of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Heat tolerance depends not only on the material grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Thin magnets (low permeance coefficient) are more susceptible to demagnetization sooner compared to rod magnets. The danger warning in the table points to permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two magnets interact from a wider radius than a magnet and steel setup. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet produces a massive flux and a larger range of action. Designing a solid fastener? Apply two magnets instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Be careful that when connecting a pair of magnets, the impact force is massive. The repulsion force is marginally weaker than the connection force, but still large.
*The magnetic induction between like poles drops to ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (due to field cancellation).
Attention: Figures refer to sliding force of a pair of identical neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni layer).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a large risk to electronics as well as medical implants. These magnets generate a field that destroys function of digital equipment. Remember: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and housings. Increased vigilance must be taken by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: mechanical watches, car keys, membranes, and displays. Do not place the magnet near cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are delicate – a collision with steel risks their cracking. Pay attention to connection velocity – a magnet released freely turns into a projectile. Kinetic force can trigger coating fragments or injury to fingers. Hold the magnet firmly during bringing near metal so it doesn't slam with momentum against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h almost guarantees destruction of the magnet. Use safety goggles when handling with powerful specimens.

Rust risk: Standard nickel requires drying after every contact with moisture; lack of maintenance will lead to rust spots.

Water displaces steel, making heavy objects slightly lighter. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just ~20% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely reduces the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 material, 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) = 1.22

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 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.

The ring magnet with a hole MP 16x12x2 / 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. It is also often used in advertising for fixing signs and in workshops for organizing tools.

This is a crucial issue when working with model MP 16x12x2 / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle and inelastic. When tightening the screw, you must maintain great sensitivity. We recommend tightening manually with a screwdriver, not an impact driver, because excessive force will cause the ring to crack. The flat screw head should evenly press the magnet. 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. In the place of the mounting hole, the coating is thinner and easily scratched when tightening the screw, which will become a corrosion focus. If you must use it outside, paint it with anti-corrosion paint after mounting.

A screw or bolt with a thread diameter smaller than 12 mm fits this model. For magnets with a straight hole, a conical head can act like a wedge and burst the magnet. Aesthetic mounting requires selecting the appropriate head size.

The presented product is a ring magnet with dimensions Ø16 mm (outer diameter) and height 2 mm. The pulling force of this model is an impressive 0.68 kg, which translates to 6.62 N in newtons. The mounting hole diameter is precisely 12 mm.

These magnets are magnetized axially (through the thickness), which means one flat side is the N pole and the other is S. In the case of connecting two rings, make sure one is turned the right way. When ordering a larger quantity, magnets are usually packed in stacks, where they are already naturally paired.

Pros as well as cons of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Pros

Besides their remarkable strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

They do not lose magnetism, even after approximately ten years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
Neodymium magnets prove to be exceptionally resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external magnetic fields,
The use of an aesthetic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
Neodymium magnets ensure maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which allows for strong attraction,
Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
Thanks to flexibility in constructing and the capacity to customize to client solutions,
Fundamental importance in modern technologies – they serve a role in mass storage devices, electric motors, medical devices, as well as complex engineering applications.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in tiny dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
Limited possibility of producing nuts in the magnet and complex forms - recommended is casing - magnet mounting.
Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small components of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Holding force characteristics

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what affects it?

The lifting capacity listed is a measurement result conducted under standard conditions:

using a plate made of high-permeability steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
with a thickness no less than 10 mm
with an ground contact surface
with total lack of distance (without impurities)
for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Real force is affected by working environment parameters, mainly (from most important):

Gap (between the magnet and the metal), since even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
Loading method – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
Thermal factor – high temperature reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity was assessed with the use of a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Warnings

Do not drill into magnets

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

Choking Hazard

NdFeB magnets are not toys. Swallowing a few magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a critical condition and necessitates immediate surgery.

Electronic hazard

Data protection: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Safe operation

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

Life threat

For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Avoid contact if allergic

Studies show that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands or choose versions in plastic housing.

Crushing risk

Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can cause hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Do not overheat magnets

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. Damage is permanent.

Fragile material

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them breaking into shards.

Impact on smartphones

An intense magnetic field disrupts the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Do not bring magnets close to a device to avoid breaking the sensors.
