Corrosion warning: Remember to wipe the magnet thoroughly after removing it from water and apply a protective layer (e.g., oil) to avoid corrosion.
1. Vertical hold

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

2. Steel saturation

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

*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) = 0.80

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.

Field Strength

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. 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 40x20x5 / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle 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. Damage to the protective layer during assembly is the most common cause of rusting. 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.
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 7.24 kg, which translates to 70.98 N in newtons. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating and is made of NdFeB material. Inner hole dimension: 20 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.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their notable magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even over approximately ten years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
  • Neodymium magnets prove to be remarkably resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by magnetic disturbances,
  • In other words, due to the aesthetic finish of nickel, the element gains visual value,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Possibility of detailed forming as well as adapting to precise requirements,
  • Huge importance in electronics industry – they are commonly used in data components, electric motors, medical equipment, as well as multitasking production systems.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • At strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer 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
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • We suggest cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

The declared magnet strength represents the maximum value, obtained under ideal test conditions, meaning:
  • on a base made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
  • possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an polished touching surface
  • without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at room temperature

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

It is worth knowing that the application force will differ depending on the following factors, starting with the most relevant:
  • Distance (betwixt the magnet and the plate), because even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
  • Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity was assessed using a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Sensitization to coating

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation appears, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.

Fire warning

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Impact on smartphones

GPS units and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Protective goggles

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them shattering into shards.

Protect data

Device Safety: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Heat warning

Control the heat. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its properties and pulling force.

Medical implants

For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields affect medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Do not give to children

Adult use only. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from children and animals.

Crushing force

Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Respect the power

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

Caution! More info about hazards in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
