1. Wall mount (shear)

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Thermal stability

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

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.

Other offers

The ring magnet with a hole MP 40x20x5 / N38 is created for mechanical fastening, 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. This product with a force of 7.24 kg works great as a door latch, speaker holder, or spacer element in devices.
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. 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. In the place of the mounting hole, the coating is thinner and easily scratched when tightening the screw, which will become a corrosion focus. 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. 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.
It is a magnetic ring with a diameter of 40 mm and thickness 5 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 7.24 kg (force ~70.98 N). The mounting hole diameter is precisely 20 mm.
The poles are located on the planes with holes, not on the sides of the ring. 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 Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

Besides their tremendous field intensity, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They retain attractive force for almost ten years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
  • Neodymium magnets remain exceptionally resistant to demagnetization caused by external magnetic fields,
  • The use of an aesthetic finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a their 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...
  • Considering the potential of accurate shaping and adaptation to custom requirements, magnetic components can be modeled in a variety of shapes and sizes, which expands the range of possible applications,
  • Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are used in HDD drives, electric motors, medical equipment, as well as modern systems.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices

Limitations

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
  • We suggest cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Holding force characteristics

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnetwhat it depends on?

Magnet power is the result of a measurement for optimal configuration, assuming:
  • with the contact of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
  • with a thickness of at least 10 mm
  • with a plane free of scratches
  • with zero gap (no impurities)
  • under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at room temperature

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

During everyday use, the actual holding force depends on many variables, ranked from the most important:
  • Distance – the presence of any layer (rust, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Load vector – highest force is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of generating force.
  • Steel type – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
  • Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity was assessed using a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Keep away from electronics

Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Respect the power

Be careful. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.

Warning for heart patients

Life threat: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Threat to electronics

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.

Power loss in heat

Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Bone fractures

Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Machining danger

Powder generated during machining of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

No play value

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

Allergic reactions

It is widely known that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If you have an allergy, prevent direct skin contact and select versions in plastic housing.

Material brittleness

Despite the nickel coating, the material is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Important! Details about risks in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
