1. Vertical hold

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.16

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 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.

Magnetic Induction

The ring magnet with a hole MP 20x5x27 / N38 is created for permanent mounting, where glue might fail or be insufficient. Thanks to the hole (often for a screw), this model enables easy screwing to wood, wall, plastic, or metal. This product with a force of 10.36 kg works great as a cabinet closure, speaker holder, or mounting element in devices.
This is a crucial issue when working with model MP 20x5x27 / 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.
These magnets are coated with standard Ni-Cu-Ni plating, which protects them in indoor conditions, but does not ensure full waterproofing. In the place of the mounting hole, the coating is thinner and can be damaged when tightening the screw, which will become a corrosion focus. 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 5 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. Always check that the screw head is not larger than the outer diameter of the magnet (20 mm), so it doesn't protrude beyond the outline.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø20x27 mm and a weight of 59.64 g. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 10.36 kg (force ~101.60 N). The product has a [NiCuNi] coating and is made of NdFeB material. Inner hole dimension: 5 mm.
The poles are located on the planes with holes, not on the sides of the ring. In the case of connecting two rings, make sure one is turned the right way. We do not offer paired sets with marked poles in this category, but they are easy to match manually.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even over approximately ten years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Neodymium magnets are distinguished by exceptionally resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external magnetic fields,
  • The use of an refined layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
  • Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of precise creating as well as adjusting to atypical needs,
  • Fundamental importance in electronics industry – they serve a role in HDD drives, motor assemblies, medical devices, and complex engineering applications.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in tiny dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions

Cons

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we advise using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mount.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat affects it?

The specified lifting capacity concerns the peak performance, recorded under ideal test conditions, namely:
  • on a block made of structural steel, effectively closing the magnetic flux
  • whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
  • with a surface free of scratches
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • in stable room temperature

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

In practice, the actual lifting capacity is determined by many variables, presented from most significant:
  • Distance (between the magnet and the plate), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop 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 holds much less (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Steel thickness – too thin steel causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the flux to be wasted to the other side.
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy steels reduce magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they lose power, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

H&S for magnets
Power loss in heat

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

ICD Warning

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Crushing risk

Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.

Conscious usage

Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and respect their force.

Data carriers

Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

Nickel allergy

Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, cease handling magnets and use protective gear.

Dust is flammable

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Material brittleness

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Do not give to children

NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Swallowing a few magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a critical condition and requires immediate surgery.

Precision electronics

GPS units and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
