1. Wall mount (shear)

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) severely weakens the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.17

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.

The ring magnet with a hole MP 40x10.4/5.5x5 / 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 40x10.4/5.5x5 / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are hard but breakable and inelastic. One turn too many can destroy the magnet, so do it slowly. It's a good idea to use a rubber spacer 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. 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 rubberized holders or additional protection with varnish.
A screw or bolt with a thread diameter smaller than 10.4/5.5 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. Aesthetic mounting requires selecting the appropriate head size.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø40x5 mm and a weight of 46.23 g. The pulling force of this model is an impressive 9.47 kg, which translates to 92.86 N in newtons. The mounting hole diameter is precisely 10.4/5.5 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. We do not offer paired sets with marked poles in this category, but they are easy to match manually.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their superior power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • Magnets effectively resist against loss of magnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
  • By using a reflective coating of nickel, the element presents an elegant look,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet turns out to be strong,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to the ability of free shaping and adaptation to specialized projects, magnetic components can be produced in a wide range of geometric configurations, which expands the range of possible applications,
  • Universal use in future technologies – they find application in hard drives, electric motors, advanced medical instruments, as well as industrial machines.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in force. 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 start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is a housing - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small components of these products can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
  • Due to complex production process, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?

Magnet power is the result of a measurement for the most favorable conditions, including:
  • on a plate made of mild steel, effectively closing the magnetic flux
  • possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • characterized by even structure
  • under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
  • during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
  • in stable room temperature

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

During everyday use, the real power is determined by a number of factors, ranked from most significant:
  • Space between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) diminishes the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Direction of force – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is typically many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Base massiveness – too thin plate does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be lost to the other side.
  • Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the plate, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Warnings
Medical implants

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

Thermal limits

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you require operation above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Combustion hazard

Dust generated during grinding of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Threat to electronics

Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Do not underestimate power

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can react.

GPS and phone interference

GPS units and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.

Choking Hazard

These products are not toys. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a severe health hazard and necessitates immediate surgery.

Beware of splinters

Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Sensitization to coating

Certain individuals have a sensitization to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching might lead to a rash. It is best to use safety gloves.

Crushing force

Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
