1. Sliding resistance

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly weakens the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.90

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.

Magnet pull force

Magnetic Induction

Other offers

It is ideally suited for places where solid attachment of the magnet to the substrate is required without the risk of detachment. Mounting is clean and reversible, unlike gluing. This product with a force of 2.79 kg works great as a cabinet closure, speaker holder, or spacer element in devices.
This is a crucial issue when working with model MP 32x16x3 / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are hard but breakable 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. This product is dedicated for inside building use. For outdoor applications, we recommend choosing magnets in hermetic housing or additional protection with varnish.
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.
It is a magnetic ring with a diameter of 32 mm and thickness 3 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 2.79 kg (force ~27.40 N). The mounting hole diameter is precisely 16 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.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their pulling strength, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They have stable power, and over more than ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • Magnets very well defend themselves against loss of magnetization caused by external fields,
  • A magnet with a shiny silver surface is more attractive,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which increases force concentration,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Due to the option of precise shaping and adaptation to individualized solutions, NdFeB magnets can be produced in a broad palette of geometric configurations, which increases their versatility,
  • Wide application in innovative solutions – they are utilized in computer drives, electric drive systems, diagnostic systems, and technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
  • Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is a housing - magnet mounting.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Maximum magnetic pulling forcewhat affects it?

The load parameter shown represents the peak performance, obtained under laboratory conditions, namely:
  • with the use of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose thickness reaches at least 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (surface-to-surface)
  • for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at ambient temperature room level

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Bear in mind that the application force will differ subject to elements below, starting with the most relevant:
  • Space between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) diminishes the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Chemical composition of the base – mild steel attracts best. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined using a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.

H&S for magnets
Medical interference

People with a ICD must keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the operation of the implant.

Allergic reactions

Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent touching magnets with bare hands or choose coated magnets.

Material brittleness

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.

Do not underestimate power

Handle with care. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.

Operating temperature

Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, look for HT versions (H, SH, UH).

This is not a toy

Always keep magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.

Precision electronics

Be aware: neodymium magnets produce a field that confuses precision electronics. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, device, and navigation systems.

Electronic devices

Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Hand protection

Large magnets can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand between two strong magnets.

Machining danger

Powder created during cutting of magnets is combustible. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
