Grip strength decreases sharply with every mm of distance. Note that every additional insulation layer (e.g., dirt, varnish, rust) noticeably reduces the pull force. Magnets hold optimally in perfect adhesion; gap drastically cuts the force. Observe how quickly the pull force plummet, when the magnet does not adhere tightly to the steel surface. When planning the assembly, avoid unnecessary gaps.

This section defines the theoretical force required to start the downward movement of the magnet downwards on a vertical steel wall (considering typical friction). This value is a function of the air gap between the magnet and the surface.

When hanging a element on a upright surface (e.g., a board), it you can count on just about 20%-30% of its nominal power. Gravitational force as well as a weak degree of grip cause that magnets slide down easier than they pull off. Want to create a hanger? Note that the sliding force is significantly lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a painted metal, the holder will slide down under a much lighter load. Using a rubber pad can effectively improve the result.

12 mm	100%	3.20 kg / 7.05 pounds 3200.0 g / 31.4 N

A thin sheet is not enough to absorb the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the holder. If you install a neodymium to a too thin substrate, the flux will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize 100% of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid backing of metal. The saturation phenomenon causes that on thin elements (e.g., appliance housings), the magnet works worse. We recommend selecting the steel dimension from these parameters.

Classic neodymiums change their properties strength past the thermal threshold. Avoid high temperatures – high temperature can irreversibly demagnetize this magnet. With every degree above norm, the magnet's capacity temporarily decreases. Do not use this magnet close to heaters exceeding its working range. Ignoring the limit will result in destruction of magnetism.

*Technical advisory: Heat tolerance depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Flat magnets (low Pc) risk losing magnetic properties under lower heat stress compared to rod magnets. Warning indicator in the table indicates a risk of irreversible loss for this particular item.

Two strong neodymiums attract each other from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and sheet setup. The connection of two magnets produces a massive flux and a wider radius of performance. Want to build a solid fastener? Use a pair of magnets instead of a neodymium and a steel. Remember that when connecting a pair of magnets, the impact force is huge. The repulsion force is a bit weaker than the connection force, but still significant.
*The magnetic induction between like poles is approximately ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
Attention: Calculations demonstrate sliding force of dual same magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Powerful magnet radiation is a large risk to IT equipment and medical implants. These NdFeB products generate a flux that disrupts operation of sensitive medical devices. Remember: the invisible magnetic field passes through tissues and plastic. Increased vigilance must be exercised by people with cochlear implants and insulin pumps. Influence will be felt by: automatic timepieces, car keys, membranes, and screens. Do not place the magnet near cards, HDD media, or sensitive navigation tools.

Neodymium magnets are very brittle – a violent impact against metal can result in shattering. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose becomes dangerous. Impact energy can trigger coating fragments or painful pinches to fingers. Always hold the magnet during mounting so it doesn't slam with momentum against the metal. A collision at high speed means shattering of the neodymium. Use safety goggles when playing with powerful specimens.

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. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 grade, 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) = 0.60

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 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 a very powerful magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 15x5x5 mm and a weight of 2.81 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. This rectangular block with a force of 31.38 N is ready for shipment in 24h, allowing for rapid realization of your project. The durable anti-corrosion layer ensures a long lifespan in a dry environment, protecting the core from oxidation.

Separating strong flat magnets requires a technique based on sliding (moving one relative to the other), rather than forceful pulling apart. To separate the MPL 15x5x5 / 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 wind generators and material handling systems. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 3.20 kg), they are ideal as closers in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Customers often choose this model for hanging tools on strips and for advanced DIY and modeling projects, where precision and power count.

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. Thanks to this, it works best when "sticking" to sheet metal or another magnet with a large surface area. Such a pole arrangement ensures maximum holding capacity when pressing against the sheet, creating a closed magnetic circuit.

This model is characterized by dimensions 15x5x5 mm, which, at a weight of 2.81 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 3.20 kg (force ~31.38 N), which, with such a compact shape, proves the high grade of the material. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Pros and cons of neodymium magnets.

Pros

Apart from their notable holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:

Their magnetic field is maintained, and after approximately 10 years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
They possess excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external magnetic sources,
A magnet with a smooth gold surface has better aesthetics,
Magnets exhibit huge magnetic induction on the outer side,
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...
In view of the option of precise shaping and adaptation to custom needs, neodymium magnets can be created in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which amplifies use scope,
Versatile presence in innovative solutions – they are used in HDD drives, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, and other advanced devices.
Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Cons of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals

At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mount.
Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small components of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

The load parameter shown refers to the limit force, recorded under ideal test conditions, namely:

using a base made of high-permeability steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
with an ground touching surface
with direct contact (no coatings)
during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

Real force is influenced by specific conditions, including (from most important):

Distance (between the magnet and the metal), since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
Angle of force application – maximum parameter is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is standardly several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the plate, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets

Magnets are brittle

Despite metallic appearance, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

Dust explosion hazard

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Phone sensors

Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.

Do not overheat magnets

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Do not give to children

Neodymium magnets are not toys. Eating several magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a severe health hazard and necessitates immediate surgery.

Electronic devices

Data protection: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).

Crushing force

Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Allergic reactions

Certain individuals suffer from a sensitization to nickel, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching may cause dermatitis. We strongly advise use protective gloves.

Danger to pacemakers

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Keep at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Immense force

Handle with care. Neodymium magnets attract from a long distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can move away.

Attention! Details about risks in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
