1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.83

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.

Magnetic Induction

See also products

The ring-shaped magnet MP 5x2.7/1.2x5 C / 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. This product with a force of 0.75 kg works great as a cabinet closure, speaker holder, or spacer element in devices.
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. It's a good idea to use a flexible washer under the screw head, which will cushion the stresses. 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. 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. Aesthetic mounting requires selecting the appropriate head size.
The presented product is a ring magnet with dimensions Ø5 mm (outer diameter) and height 5 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 0.75 kg (force ~7.31 N). The product has a [NiCuNi] coating and is made of NdFeB material. Inner hole dimension: 2.7/1.2 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 as well as weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • They maintain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
  • By applying a shiny layer of gold, the element presents an proper look,
  • They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • In view of the ability of flexible molding and customization to unique requirements, magnetic components can be produced in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which increases their versatility,
  • Significant place in electronics industry – they serve a role in computer drives, electric motors, diagnostic systems, also multitasking production systems.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Cons

Cons of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's 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.
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
  • We recommend a housing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what contributes to it?

The declared magnet strength refers to the maximum value, measured under optimal environment, specifically:
  • with the application of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
  • with a thickness no less than 10 mm
  • with an ideally smooth contact surface
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Key elements affecting lifting force

During everyday use, the actual lifting capacity depends on a number of factors, presented from crucial:
  • Distance (betwixt the magnet and the metal), as even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
  • Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel grade – the best choice is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the plate, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Warning for allergy sufferers

Medical facts indicate that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, prevent direct skin contact or select coated magnets.

Electronic devices

Do not bring magnets near a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

Do not underestimate power

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and connect with massive power, often faster than you can move away.

Phone sensors

A powerful magnetic field interferes with the operation of compasses in phones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets near a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.

Bone fractures

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Danger to the youngest

Always keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are life-threatening.

Pacemakers

Individuals with a heart stimulator should keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can stop the functioning of the implant.

Thermal limits

Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and pulling force.

Dust is flammable

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Beware of splinters

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.
