1. Shear force

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens 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) = 1.16

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 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 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 20x5x27 / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle and inelastic. When tightening the screw, you must maintain caution. 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. Damage to the protective layer during assembly is the most common cause of rusting. If you must use it outside, paint it with anti-corrosion paint after mounting.
The inner hole diameter determines the maximum size of the mounting element. 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.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø20x27 mm and a weight of 59.64 g. The key parameter here is the holding force 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.
These magnets are magnetized axially (through the thickness), which means one flat side is the N pole and the other is S. 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). We do not offer paired sets with marked poles in this category, but they are easy to match manually.

Strengths and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Pros

Besides their immense strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They have constant strength, and over around 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • A magnet with a smooth nickel surface is more attractive,
  • Magnets are characterized by exceptionally strong magnetic induction on the active area,
  • Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling functioning at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to the possibility of precise shaping and adaptation to unique needs, neodymium magnets can be created in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
  • Significant place in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in data components, electric motors, medical devices, also modern systems.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We suggest casing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these magnets are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what contributes to it?

The lifting capacity listed is a theoretical maximum value executed under standard conditions:
  • with the contact of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • with total lack of distance (without impurities)
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

During everyday use, the actual holding force depends on several key aspects, ranked from the most important:
  • Clearance – the presence of any layer (paint, dirt, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Steel grade – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Implant safety

Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.

Machining danger

Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Magnetic media

Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Stay away of at least 10 cm.

Handling guide

Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Danger to the youngest

Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Store out of reach of kids and pets.

Allergy Warning

Allergy Notice: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If redness appears, immediately stop working with magnets and use protective gear.

Physical harm

Watch your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Heat sensitivity

Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its magnetic structure and strength.

GPS and phone interference

Remember: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.

Shattering risk

Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
