Shopping tips

Neodymium flat magnets min. MPL 15x15x5 / N38 are magnets made from neodymium in a flat form. They are known for their exceptionally potent magnetic properties, which surpass ordinary iron magnets.
Thanks to their high strength, flat magnets are regularly applied in devices that require exceptional adhesion.
Typical temperature resistance of these magnets is 80°C, but depending on the dimensions, this value can increase.
Additionally, flat magnets commonly have special coatings applied to their surfaces, e.g. nickel, gold, or chrome, to improve their strength.
The magnet named MPL 15x15x5 / N38 and a lifting capacity of 5.92 kg weighing only 8.44 grams, making it the ideal choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Neodymium flat magnets provide a range of advantages versus other magnet shapes, which cause them being a perfect solution for many applications:
Contact surface: Thanks to their flat shape, flat magnets ensure a larger contact surface with adjacent parts, which is beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These are often applied in various devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the flat shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape simplifies mounting, particularly when it is required to attach the magnet to another surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets allows designers a lot of flexibility in arranging them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can provide better stability, reducing the risk of shifting or rotating. However, one should remember that the optimal shape of the magnet is dependent on the given use and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be a better choice.
Attracted by magnets are objects made of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron elements, objects containing nickel, cobalt and special alloys of ferromagnetic metals. Moreover, magnets may weaker affect some other metals, such as steel. Magnets are used in many fields.
Magnets work thanks to the properties of their magnetic field, which is generated by the movement of electric charges within their material. Magnetic fields of these objects creates attractive forces, which affect objects made of nickel or other magnetic materials.

Magnets have two main poles: north (N) and south (S), which attract each other when they are different. Poles of the same kind, such as two north poles, repel each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are often used in electrical devices, such as motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the highest power of attraction, making them indispensable for applications requiring powerful magnetic fields. Moreover, the strength of a magnet depends on its dimensions and the material it is made of.
Not all materials react to magnets, and examples of such substances are plastic, glass items, wooden materials and most gemstones. Furthermore, magnets do not affect most metals, such as copper, aluminum materials, gold. Although these metals conduct electricity, do not exhibit ferromagnetic properties, meaning that they remain unaffected by a magnet, unless exposed to a very strong magnetic field.
It should be noted that extremely high temperatures, above the Curie point, cause a loss of magnetic properties in the magnet. The Curie temperature is specific to each type of magnet, meaning that under such conditions, the magnet stops being magnetic. Additionally, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, credit cards and even medical equipment, like pacemakers. Therefore, it is important to exercise caution when using magnets.
A neodymium magnet with classification N52 and N50 is a powerful and strong magnetic piece shaped like a plate, that offers high force and universal application. Attractive price, fast shipping, ruggedness and multi-functionality.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years, the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • They protect against demagnetization induced by ambient electromagnetic environments effectively,
  • Thanks to the glossy finish and nickel coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
  • The outer field strength of the magnet shows elevated magnetic properties,
  • With the right combination of compounds, they reach excellent thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the design),
  • With the option for tailored forming and personalized design, these magnets can be produced in numerous shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
  • Important function in new technology industries – they are used in hard drives, rotating machines, clinical machines and other advanced devices,
  • Compactness – despite their small size, they deliver powerful magnetism, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages of magnetic elements:

  • They can break when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, they should be placed in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and strengthens its overall strength,
  • They lose magnetic force at increased temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent decline in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the geometry and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
  • Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is advisable to use sealed magnets made of synthetic coating for outdoor use,
  • Limited ability to create internal holes in the magnet – the use of a external casing is recommended,
  • Possible threat due to small fragments may arise, in case of ingestion, which is important in the context of child safety. It should also be noted that minuscule fragments from these products might complicate medical imaging if inside the body,
  • Due to a complex production process, their cost is relatively high,

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditionswhat it depends on?

The given strength of the magnet corresponds to the optimal strength, measured in ideal conditions, that is:

  • using a steel plate with low carbon content, acting as a magnetic circuit closure
  • of a thickness of at least 10 mm
  • with a refined outer layer
  • in conditions of no clearance
  • under perpendicular detachment force
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

The lifting capacity of a magnet is determined by in practice the following factors, ordered from most important to least significant:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
  • Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
  • Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
  • Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
  • Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
  • Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.

* Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Precautions

Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.

Magnetic fields can interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in aviation and maritime navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices. There are neodymium magnets in every smartphone, for example, in the microphone and speakers.

The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel allergy.

Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.

If you have a finger between or alternatively on the path of attracting magnets, there may be a severe cut or even a fracture.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.

Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.

The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets away from these electronic devices.

Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets ever invented. Their power can surprise you.

Make sure to review all the information we have provided. This will help you avoid harm to your body and damage to the magnets.

Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.

Neodymium magnetic are fragile and can easily crack and shatter.

Neodymium magnets are characterized by significant fragility. Neodymium magnetic are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable as steel. In the event of a collision between two magnets, there may be a scattering of fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is crucial in such a situation.

  Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.

Neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. In the case of swallowing multiple magnets simultaneously, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to death.
