Physical analysis of the assembly - data

The following data are the direct effect of a mathematical simulation. Results were calculated on models for the material Nd₂Fe₁₄B. Real-world conditions may differ from theoretical values. Treat these calculations as a reference point when designing systems.

Table 1: Static force (pull vs distance) - power drop
MPL 15x2x30 / N38

Magnetic force decreases drastically per each millimeter of spacing. Keep in mind that even a microscopic distance (e.g., contamination, varnish, rust) noticeably weakens the grip. Neodymiums operate most effectively in perfect adhesion; distance drastically cuts the power. Observe how flashily the parameters plummet, when the product does not adhere tightly to the metal substrate. When designing the mounting, eliminate additional spacers.

The table below calculates the theoretical weight limit sufficient to start the shifting of the magnet down against a vertical steel wall (considering typical friction). The holding force varies with the gap size between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MPL 15x2x30 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.20 kg / 0.45 lbs 204.0 g / 2.0 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.14 kg / 0.30 lbs 136.0 g / 1.3 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.07 kg / 0.15 lbs 68.0 g / 0.7 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.34 kg / 0.75 lbs 340.0 g / 3.3 N

When placing a magnet on a vertical wall (e.g., a fridge), it will only hold just about 1/5 of nominal attraction strength. Gravitational force and a low friction coefficient influence the fact that holders slip easier than they pull off. Planning a hanger? Remember that the shear force is noticeably lower than the maximum static pull force. On a slippery surface, the magnet will slide down under a noticeably lighter weight. Application of an anti-slip pad can significantly raise the stability.

Table 4: Material efficiency (saturation) - power losses
MPL 15x2x30 / N38

Steel thickness (mm)	% power	Real pull force (kg/lbs/g/N)
0.5 mm	10%	0.07 kg / 0.15 lbs 68.0 g / 0.7 N
1 mm	25%	0.17 kg / 0.37 lbs 170.0 g / 1.7 N
2 mm	50%	0.34 kg / 0.75 lbs 340.0 g / 3.3 N
3 mm	75%	0.51 kg / 1.12 lbs 510.0 g / 5.0 N
5 mm	100%	0.68 kg / 1.50 lbs 680.0 g / 6.7 N
10 mm	100%	0.68 kg / 1.50 lbs 680.0 g / 6.7 N
11 mm	100%	0.68 kg / 1.50 lbs 680.0 g / 6.7 N
12 mm	100%	0.68 kg / 1.50 lbs 680.0 g / 6.7 N

A too thin steel cannot take in the entire magnetic field, which squanders power of the magnet. Should you attach a powerful product to a thin surface, the magnetism will pass right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To squeeze full efficiency of this magnet's potential, you require a sufficiently solid piece of metal. The material oversaturation means that on thin elements (e.g., thin profiles), the magnet shows lower pull force. We suggest choosing the steel cross-section from these parameters.

Standard neodymium magnets irreversibly lose strength after exceeding the maximum temperature. Watch out for overheating – high temperature can permanently demagnetize this magnet. As the temperature rises, the magnet's power briefly lowers. Refrain from using this product in hot environments higher than its operating temperature limit. Ignoring the limit will lead to irreversible degradation of magnetism.

*Technical advisory: Heat tolerance is determined by both grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Thin magnets (low Pc) may lose charge permanently under lower heat stress than taller cylinders. Warning indicator in the table signals a risk of irreversible loss for this specific geometry.

Two magnets attract each other from a much further distance than a magnet and steel setup. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet generates a stronger field and a wider radius of operation. Designing a strong closure? Use a pair of magnets instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Exercise caution that when bringing together two magnets, the pinch force is huge. The repulsion force is marginally weaker than the connection force, but still impressive.
*Flux density in repulsion mode is approximately ~0 Gs at the geometric center of the gap (due to field cancellation).
Attention: Calculations apply to shear force of dual identical neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni layer).

Table 7: Hazards (implants) - precautionary measures
MPL 15x2x30 / N38

Object / Device	Limit (Gauss) / mT	Safe distance

Powerful magnet radiation poses a serious hazard to electronics as well as pacemakers. These NdFeB products produce a flux that destroys function of digital equipment. Be aware: the invisible magnetic field passes through tissues and housings. Exceptional care must be taken by people with cochlear implants and drug dispensers. Influence will be felt by: automatic timepieces, remotes, membranes, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or sensitive navigation tools.

Table 8: Dynamics (cracking risk) - warning
MPL 15x2x30 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	10.13 km/h (2.81 m/s)	0.03 J
30 mm	17.53 km/h (4.87 m/s)	0.08 J
50 mm	22.63 km/h (6.29 m/s)	0.13 J
100 mm	32.01 km/h (8.89 m/s)	0.27 J

NdFeB products are very brittle – a strong collision with metal risks their cracking. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can cause material chips or dangerous crushing to fingers. Hold the magnet firmly during bringing near metal so it doesn't hit violently against the steel surface. A collision at high speed ends with a crack of the neodymium. Wear safety glasses when handling with powerful specimens.

Warning: Remember to wipe the magnet thoroughly after removing it from water and apply a protective layer (e.g., oil) to avoid corrosion.

Contrary to myths, water does not block the magnetic field. Note: for permanent underwater work, we recommend magnets with an anti-corrosive (epoxy) coating.

1. Shear force

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.54

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 P_c (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 P_c 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.

This product is an extremely strong plate magnet made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 15x2x30 mm and a weight of 6.75 g, guarantees premium class connection. As a magnetic bar with high power (approx. 0.68 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland. Furthermore, 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 15x2x30 / N38 model, firmly slide one magnet over the edge of the other until the attraction force decreases. We recommend extreme caution, 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.

Plate magnets MPL 15x2x30 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as filters catching filings and linear motors. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 0.68 kg), they are ideal as closers in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Their rectangular shape facilitates precise gluing into milled sockets in wood or plastic.

Cyanoacrylate glues (super glue type) are good only for small magnets; for larger plates, we recommend resins. For lighter applications or mounting on smooth surfaces, branded foam tape (e.g., 3M VHB) will work, provided the surface is perfectly degreased. Remember to clean and degrease 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. In practice, this means that this magnet has the greatest attraction force on its main planes (15x2 mm), which is ideal for flat mounting. This is the most popular configuration for block magnets used in separators and holders.

This model is characterized by dimensions 15x2x30 mm, which, at a weight of 6.75 g, makes it an element with high energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 0.68 kg (force ~6.68 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high power of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over around 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
Neodymium magnets are exceptionally resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external magnetic fields,
The use of an aesthetic finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
Thanks to versatility in designing and the capacity to adapt to complex applications,
Universal use in high-tech industry – they are used in hard drives, motor assemblies, medical devices, as well as modern systems.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in small systems

Limitations

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals

Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures them against impacts but also increases their durability
Neodymium magnets lose strength when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of strength (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
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, in case of application outdoors
Limited possibility of making nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is casing - magnet mounting.
Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

Breakaway force was defined for the most favorable conditions, taking into account:

using a base made of high-permeability steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
with an ideally smooth touching surface
with zero gap (no impurities)
during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
at conditions approx. 20°C

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Holding efficiency impacted by specific conditions, mainly (from priority):

Gap (between the magnet and the metal), because even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
Force direction – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet holds significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Plate thickness – insufficiently thick sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the flux to be lost to the other side.
Steel type – low-carbon steel attracts best. Higher carbon content lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, reducing force.
Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets

Handling rules

Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and connect with huge force, often quicker than you can react.

Phone sensors

Remember: rare earth magnets generate a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Maintain a separation from your mobile, device, and GPS.

Skin irritation risks

Certain individuals experience a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching can result in a rash. We recommend use safety gloves.

Thermal limits

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

Protective goggles

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Serious injuries

Large magnets can smash fingers instantly. Under no circumstances place your hand between two strong magnets.

Threat to electronics

Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Life threat

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Danger to the youngest

Neodymium magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of several magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a critical condition and necessitates urgent medical intervention.

Do not drill into magnets

Powder produced during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.
