1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Thermal stability

*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) = 0.27

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

This product is an extremely strong magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 10x5x1.5 mm and a weight of 0.56 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. As a block magnet with high power (approx. 0.86 kg), this product is available immediately from our warehouse in Poland. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, giving it an aesthetic appearance.
The key to success is sliding the magnets along their largest connection plane (using e.g., the edge of a table), which is easier than trying to tear them apart directly. To separate the MPL 10x5x1.5 / N38 model, firmly slide one magnet over the edge of the other until the attraction force decreases. We recommend care, because after separation, the magnets may want to violently snap back together, which threatens pinching the skin. Never use metal tools for prying, as the brittle NdFeB material may chip and damage your eyes.
They constitute a key element in the production of generators and material handling systems. They work great as fasteners under tiles, wood, or glass. Customers often choose this model for hanging tools on strips and for advanced DIY and modeling projects, where precision and power count.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 10x5x1.5 / N38, it is best to use strong epoxy glues (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. Double-sided tape cushions vibrations, which is an advantage when mounting in moving elements. Remember to roughen and wash the magnet surface before gluing, which significantly increases the adhesion of the glue to the nickel coating.
The magnetic axis runs through the shortest dimension, which is typical for gripper magnets. Thanks to this, it works best when "sticking" to sheet metal or another magnet with a large surface area. This is the most popular configuration for block magnets used in separators and holders.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 10 mm (length), 5 mm (width), and 1.5 mm (thickness). It is a magnetic block with dimensions 10x5x1.5 mm and a self-weight of 0.56 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their superior holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even during approximately ten years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Neodymium magnets are extremely resistant to demagnetization caused by external field sources,
  • Thanks to the elegant finish, the plating of nickel, gold, or silver gives an clean appearance,
  • Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to modularity in forming and the ability to adapt to client solutions,
  • Universal use in electronics industry – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric motors, advanced medical instruments, as well as multitasking production systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets lose their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We recommend cover - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Lifting parameters

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

The force parameter is a measurement result executed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
  • possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • characterized by even structure
  • with zero gap (without coatings)
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Key elements affecting lifting force

Bear in mind that the working load may be lower depending on the following factors, starting with the most relevant:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
  • Force direction – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Plate thickness – too thin plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
  • Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
  • Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of induction. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was assessed with the use of a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Warnings
Adults only

These products are not toys. Swallowing several magnets may result in them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a severe health hazard and necessitates urgent medical intervention.

Threat to navigation

An intense magnetic field disrupts the operation of compasses in smartphones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.

Fire warning

Powder produced during grinding of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Caution required

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

Skin irritation risks

Studies show that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact or opt for coated magnets.

Crushing force

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

Health Danger

For implant holders: Powerful magnets affect medical devices. Keep at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Electronic hazard

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Demagnetization risk

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its properties and pulling force.

Shattering risk

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets will cause them shattering into shards.
