Grip strength drops drastically per each millimeter of distance. Remember that even a very thin break (e.g., dirt, varnish, dust) significantly reduces the pull force. Neodymiums work strongest in perfect adhesion; air break weakens the force. See how quickly the pull force drop, when the product does not touch directly to the metal substrate. When calculating the assembly, discard unnecessary gaps.

The following data calculates the estimated weight limit necessary to start the slippage of the magnet down against a upright metal surface (assuming typical friction coefficient). This parameter varies with the air gap between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MPL 15x5x5 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.96 kg / 2.12 pounds 960.0 g / 9.4 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.64 kg / 1.41 pounds 640.0 g / 6.3 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.32 kg / 0.71 pounds 320.0 g / 3.1 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	1.60 kg / 3.53 pounds 1600.0 g / 15.7 N

When hanging a element on a vertical plane (e.g., a board), it you can count on barely approx. 1/5 of its nominal power. Gravitational force and a low friction coefficient mean that magnets slide down easier than they pop off the substrate. Planning a hanger? Consider that the shear force is significantly lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a painted metal, the holder will slip down under a noticeably lighter weight. Utilizing a rubberized pad can effectively improve the result.

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

A too thin steel is unable to absorb the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the magnet. Should you attach a powerful product to a weak sheet, the magnetism will pass right through and the holding will be smaller. To achieve 100% of this magnet's power, you need a suitably thick backing of metal. The saturation effect means that on delicate walls (e.g., thin profiles), the magnet works worse. We recommend selecting the steel cross-section from these parameters.

Ordinary NdFeB products change their properties parameters past the thermal threshold. Protect against heat – excessive heat can permanently destroy this magnet. With every degree above norm, the neodymium's capacity briefly lowers. Refrain from using this product near heat sources exceeding its safe range. Too high temperature will cause irreversible degradation of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Thermal stability depends not only on the material grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Thin magnets (low permeance coefficient) risk losing magnetic properties at lower temperatures than long magnets. The danger warning in the table points to permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two magnetic products attract each other from a wider radius than a magnet and steel combination. Such a system of two magnets creates a more powerful interaction and a wider radius of action. Planning to create a powerful holder? Apply two magnets instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Exercise caution that when connecting a pair of magnets, the impact force is huge. The levitation is a bit weaker than the attraction, but still impressive.
*The magnetic induction for N-N configuration drops to ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (caused by magnetic field nullification).
Note: Calculations show sliding force of two identical magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a real danger to IT equipment and medical implants. These NdFeB products generate a flux that disrupts operation of sensitive medical devices. Notice: the unseen radiation passes through tissues and plastic. Exceptional care must be taken by people with cochlear implants and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: automatic timepieces, car keys, speakers, and screens. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are very brittle – a collision with steel risks their cracking. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can cause material chips or injury to skin. Always hold the magnet during installation so it doesn't hit violently against the metal. A collision at high speed almost guarantees destruction of the neodymium. Use safety goggles when playing with large magnets.

Warning: Standard nickel requires drying after every contact with moisture; lack of maintenance will lead to rust spots.

The magnetic field penetrates through water without any losses. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Sliding resistance

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.60

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 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 premium class connection. This magnetic block with a force of 31.38 N is ready for shipment in 24h, allowing for rapid realization of your project. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, giving it an aesthetic appearance.

The key to success is shifting 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 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. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.

Plate magnets MPL 15x5x5 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as filters catching filings and linear motors. 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 15x5x5 / N38, we recommend utilizing two-component adhesives (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. 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 roughen and wash the magnet surface before gluing, which significantly increases the adhesion of the glue to the nickel coating.

Standardly, the MPL 15x5x5 / N38 model is magnetized axially (dimension 5 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on its largest, flat surfaces. In practice, this means that this magnet has the greatest attraction force on its main planes (15x5 mm), which is ideal for flat mounting. Such a pole arrangement ensures maximum holding capacity when pressing against the sheet, creating a closed magnetic circuit.

The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 15 mm (length), 5 mm (width), and 5 mm (thickness). The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 3.20 kg (force ~31.38 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high power of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Besides their remarkable pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over around 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
Neodymium magnets are distinguished by highly resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external field sources,
A magnet with a metallic gold surface looks better,
They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are able to function (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
Thanks to the potential of accurate forming and customization to unique requirements, magnetic components can be produced in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
Universal use in modern technologies – they serve a role in hard drives, electric motors, medical devices, as well as industrial machines.
Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Weaknesses

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets and proposals for their use:

Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
Neodymium magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of strength (a factor is the shape as well as 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
They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complicated shapes - recommended is casing - mounting mechanism.
Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
Due to complex production process, their price is relatively high,

Holding force characteristics

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?

The force parameter is a result of laboratory testing executed under standard conditions:

on a block made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
whose thickness reaches at least 10 mm
with an polished touching surface
under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
in neutral thermal conditions

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Real force is influenced by working environment parameters, such as (from most important):

Clearance – the presence of any layer (paint, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is typically many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
Temperature influence – hot environment reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets

GPS and phone interference

Be aware: neodymium magnets produce a field that interferes with precision electronics. Keep a separation from your mobile, device, and GPS.

Metal Allergy

It is widely known that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid direct skin contact or choose coated magnets.

Serious injuries

Big blocks can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.

Risk of cracking

Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Heat sensitivity

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

Do not underestimate power

Use magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can surprise even professionals. Be vigilant and do not underestimate their power.

Combustion hazard

Powder produced during grinding of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.

Cards and drives

Intense magnetic fields can erase data on credit cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.

Implant safety

People with a ICD have to maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the operation of the implant.

Choking Hazard

Neodymium magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of several magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a direct threat to life and requires immediate surgery.
