1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Thermal stability

*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

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

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 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 material behaves more like porcelain than steel, so it doesn't forgive mistakes during mounting. One turn too many can destroy the magnet, so do it slowly. 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 is not sufficient for rain. Damage to the protective layer during assembly is the most common cause of rusting. This product is dedicated for indoor 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. For magnets with a straight hole, a conical head can act like a wedge and burst the magnet. Always check that the screw head is not larger than the outer diameter of the magnet (40 mm), so it doesn't protrude beyond the outline.
The presented product is a ring magnet with dimensions Ø40 mm (outer diameter) and height 5 mm. The pulling force of this model is an impressive 9.47 kg, which translates to 92.86 N in newtons. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating and is made of NdFeB material. Inner hole dimension: 10.4/5.5 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). We do not offer paired sets with marked poles in this category, but they are easy to match manually.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.

Strengths

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • Their power remains stable, and after approximately 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They show high resistance to demagnetization induced by external magnetic fields,
  • The use of an refined finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
  • Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet remains maximum,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to modularity in shaping and the ability to customize to complex applications,
  • Wide application in future technologies – they are used in hard drives, brushless drives, medical equipment, also industrial machines.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures them against impacts but also increases their durability
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 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 secure oxidation and corrosion.
  • We recommend a housing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small elements of these products can complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The lifting capacity listed is a measurement result conducted under the following configuration:
  • on a base made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
  • with a thickness of at least 10 mm
  • characterized by even structure
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In real-world applications, the actual lifting capacity results from a number of factors, ranked from the most important:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
  • Force direction – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Plate thickness – too thin steel does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be wasted to the other side.
  • Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Surface finish – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
  • Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Warnings
Dust is flammable

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Permanent damage

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

Phone sensors

Note: neodymium magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Keep a safe distance from your phone, device, and navigation systems.

Magnets are brittle

Despite the nickel coating, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

Data carriers

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Sensitization to coating

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If you have an allergy, avoid direct skin contact and select coated magnets.

Danger to the youngest

Strictly store magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.

Implant safety

Individuals with a ICD should maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.

Handling rules

Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Stay alert and do not underestimate their force.

Finger safety

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