Frequently asked questions

What is the hole in a ring magnet for?
For mounting on a screw or a shaft. The bore may be cylindrical or countersunk for a screw head. The hole removes magnet volume, so a ring holds less than a disc of the same outside diameter.
What is the polarisation?
Axial as standard — poles on the flat faces of the ring. Diametrical polarisation is made to order.
What sizes are available?
Outside diameter from 5 to 62 mm from stock. To order up to 200 mm outside diameter, 180 mm bore and 40 mm height, with a lead time of 25–35 days.

Magnetic force weakens drastically per each millimeter of distance. Note that even a very thin break (e.g., dirt, paint, veneer) noticeably weakens the grip. Magnets operate strongest during direct contact; gap weakens the force. Notice how quickly the load capacity fall, when the magnet does not adhere directly to the steel surface. When planning the assembly, avoid unnecessary gaps.

The table below calculates the theoretical shear load needed to cause the sliding of the magnet downwards against a upright metal surface (considering standard friction). This parameter depends on the separation distance between the magnet and the metal.

When placing a magnet on a upright wall (e.g., a board), it will only hold barely approx. 1/5 of its nominal power. Gravitational force as well as a low friction coefficient mean that products move down easier than they detach. Want to create a hanger? Remember that the shear force is significantly lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a painted metal, the element will slip down under a noticeably lighter load. Application of an anti-slip coating can effectively improve the result.

A thin metal plate cannot focus the entire magnetic field, which wastes potential of the holder. Should you mount a strong magnet to a thin surface, the field will pass right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To squeeze full efficiency of this magnet's power, you need a suitably thick piece of steel. The saturation phenomenon means that on thin elements (e.g., car bodies), the product holds weaker. We advise picking the steel cross-section based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums change their properties power after exceeding the maximum temperature. Protect against heat – excessive heat can irreversibly demagnetize this magnet. With every degree above norm, the magnet's power temporarily drops. Refrain from using this magnet near heat sources higher than its working range. Ignoring the limit will lead to permanent loss of magnetic properties.
*Engineering note: Temperature resistance depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (low Pc) are more susceptible to demagnetization at lower temperatures than long magnets. The danger warning in the table points to permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two strong neodymiums attract each other from a wider radius than a magnet and sheet combination. The connection of magnet-to-magnet generates a stronger field and a further horizon of action. Planning to create a powerful holder? Utilize two neodymiums instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Be careful that when connecting a pair of magnets, the pinch force is massive. The repulsion force is slightly lower than the attraction, but still significant.
*Field value for N-N configuration is approximately ~0 Gs at the midpoint between the magnets (due to field cancellation).
Important: Figures show sliding force of two identical magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

A strong magnetic field is a real danger to IT equipment as well as medical implants. These NdFeB products generate a field that destroys function of digital equipment. Remember: the unseen radiation penetrates the body and glass. Exceptional care must be taken by people with cochlear implants and drug dispensers. Influence will be felt by: mechanical watches, car keys, membranes, and screens. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or sensitive navigation tools.

Neodymium magnets are prone to chipping – a violent impact against metal risks their cracking. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose turns into a projectile. Impact energy can destroy the magnet or injury to fingers. Always hold the magnet during mounting so it doesn't hit violently against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h ends with a crack of the neodymium. Wear eye protection when playing with large magnets.

Corrosion warning: This magnet has a standard nickel coating. After use in water, it must be dried and maintained immediately, otherwise it will rust!
In water, the magnet feels stronger thanks to Archimedes' principle. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Sliding resistance

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

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For standard magnets, 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

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-shaped magnet MP 5x2.7/1.2x5 C / N38 is created for mechanical fastening, where glue might fail or be insufficient. Mounting is clean and reversible, unlike gluing. This product with a force of 0.75 kg works great as a door latch, speaker holder, or spacer element in devices.
This is a crucial issue when working with model MP 5x2.7/1.2x5 C / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are hard but breakable and inelastic. When tightening the screw, you must maintain great sensitivity. We recommend tightening manually with a screwdriver, not an impact driver, because too much pressure will cause the ring to crack. The flat screw head should evenly press the magnet. 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 can be damaged 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. 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. Always check that the screw head is not larger than the outer diameter of the magnet (5 mm), so it doesn't protrude beyond the outline.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø5x5 mm and a weight of 0.69 g. The pulling force of this model is an impressive 0.75 kg, which translates to 7.31 N in newtons. The mounting hole diameter is precisely 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.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • Their magnetic field is maintained, and after around ten years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • Neodymium magnets prove to be remarkably resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external interference,
  • In other words, due to the aesthetic layer of nickel, the element gains visual value,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet is strong,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of precise machining and adjusting to defined applications,
  • Huge importance in electronics industry – they are commonly used in computer drives, brushless drives, precision medical tools, also industrial machines.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size, as well as 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 corrode. Therefore during using outdoors, we advise using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Limited ability of producing nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is casing - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these magnets are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to complex production process, their price is relatively high,

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

The force parameter is a result of laboratory testing conducted under the following configuration:
  • with the application of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
  • with a thickness of at least 10 mm
  • with a plane perfectly flat
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
  • for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

Real force impacted by specific conditions, such as (from priority):
  • Clearance – the presence of foreign body (rust, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Force direction – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Base massiveness – too thin plate does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
  • Metal type – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
  • Temperature – temperature increase results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined using a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, however under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

GPS units and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.

Adults only

Always store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.

Skin irritation risks

Some people suffer from a contact allergy to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact can result in an allergic reaction. It is best to wear safety gloves.

Do not overheat magnets

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Powerful field

Before use, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Combustion hazard

Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Eye protection

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

Pinching danger

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.

Safe distance

Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.
