Pulling power decreases sharply per each millimeter of gap. Remember that even the smallest gap (e.g., dirt, paint, rust) strongly reduces the pull force. Magnets hold optimally at the point of direct contact; gap drastically cuts the power. Analyze how rapidly the parameters fall, when the magnet does not adhere flatly to the metal substrate. When planning the mounting, eliminate additional spacers.

This section presents the approximate force necessary to start the downward movement of the magnet down on a vertical metal surface (considering typical friction). This value is a function of the distance between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Wall mounting (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MPL 17x17x3 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.97 kg / 2.13 lbs 966.0 g / 9.5 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.64 kg / 1.42 lbs 644.0 g / 6.3 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.32 kg / 0.71 lbs 322.0 g / 3.2 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	1.61 kg / 3.55 lbs 1610.0 g / 15.8 N

When hanging a holder on a vertical plane (e.g., a fridge), it will maintain barely approx. 1/5 of its nominal power. Gravitational force and a weak degree of grip mean that holders move down faster than they pop off the substrate. Planning a wall mount? Note that the sliding force is much weaker than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a smooth steel, the magnet will give way down under a noticeably lighter load. Using a rubber layer can effectively raise the stability.

Table 4: Material efficiency (saturation) - power losses
MPL 17x17x3 / N38

12 mm	100%	3.22 kg / 7.10 lbs 3220.0 g / 31.6 N

A too thin steel cannot conduct the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the holder. Should you mount a strong magnet to a weak sheet, the magnetism will penetrate right through and the holding will be smaller. To squeeze the maximum of this magnet's potential, you need a suitably thick piece of steel. The saturation effect causes that on delicate walls (e.g., car bodies), the magnet holds weaker. We recommend selecting the steel dimension based on the following data.

Ordinary NdFeB products change their properties parameters past the thermal threshold. Avoid high temperatures – high temperature can irreversibly damage this magnet. With increasing heat, the neodymium's capacity momentarily lowers. Avoid using this product near heat sources higher than its safe range. Exceeding the critical threshold will cause permanent loss of magnetic properties.

*Important note: Thermal stability is determined by both grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (low Pc) may lose charge permanently sooner than taller cylinders. The danger warning in the table indicates a risk of irreversible loss for this particular item.

Two magnets interact from a significantly greater distance than a neodymium and metal combination. The setup of magnet-to-magnet generates a stronger field and a larger range of action. Want to build a powerful holder? Utilize two neodymiums instead of one magnet and a steel. Remember that when connecting a pair of magnets, the impact force is extreme. The levitation is slightly lower than the attraction, but still significant.
*Field value in repulsion mode is approximately ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (caused by magnetic field nullification).
* Figures show friction force of a pair of matching magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Table 7: Hazards (implants) - warnings
MPL 17x17x3 / N38

Object / Device	Limit (Gauss) / mT	Safe distance
Pacemaker	5 Gs (0.5 mT)	7.0 cm
Hearing aid	10 Gs (1.0 mT)	5.5 cm
Mechanical watch	20 Gs (2.0 mT)	4.5 cm

A strong magnetic field is a serious hazard to IT equipment and pacemakers. These neodymiums generate a field that prevents correct functioning of sensitive medical devices. Be aware: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and plastic. Special caution must be taken by people with hearing aids and drug dispensers. Influence will be felt by: mechanical watches, remotes, speakers, and screens. Do not bring the product near payment cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Collisions (kinetic energy) - warning
MPL 17x17x3 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	23.45 km/h (6.52 m/s)	0.14 J
30 mm	38.89 km/h (10.80 m/s)	0.38 J
50 mm	50.19 km/h (13.94 m/s)	0.63 J
100 mm	70.98 km/h (19.72 m/s)	1.26 J

Neodymium magnets are very brittle – a collision with steel causes immediate chipping. Watch the impact speed – a magnet released freely becomes dangerous. Kinetic force can destroy the magnet or injury to skin. Always hold the magnet during installation so it doesn't hit violently against the steel surface. A collision at high speed almost guarantees destruction of the magnet. Use safety goggles when playing with powerful specimens.

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

Contrary to myths, water does not block the magnetic field. Buoyancy helps in lifting finds.

1. Wall mount (shear)

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Thermal stability

*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) = 0.23

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.

Component MPL 17x17x3 / N38 features a low profile and professional pulling force, making it a perfect solution for building separators and machines. This magnetic block with a force of 31.54 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. Watch your fingers! Magnets with a force of 3.22 kg can pinch very hard and cause hematomas. Never use metal tools for prying, as the brittle NdFeB material may chip and damage your eyes.

Plate magnets MPL 17x17x3 / 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 workshop organization on strips and for advanced DIY and modeling projects, where precision and power count.

For mounting flat magnets MPL 17x17x3 / 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 clean and degrease the magnet surface before gluing, which significantly increases the adhesion of the glue to the nickel coating.

Standardly, the MPL 17x17x3 / N38 model is magnetized through the thickness (dimension 3 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 (17x17 mm), which is ideal for flat mounting. 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: 17 mm (length), 17 mm (width), and 3 mm (thickness). The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 3.22 kg (force ~31.54 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high grade of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their long-term stability, 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),
Magnets effectively resist against loss of magnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
By using a reflective coating of gold, the element acquires an aesthetic look,
They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
Considering the ability of precise shaping and adaptation to specialized projects, neodymium magnets can be produced in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which expands the range of possible applications,
Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they are used in magnetic memories, electric motors, medical equipment, as well as complex engineering applications.
Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:

They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
Limited possibility of creating nuts in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is cover - mounting mechanism.
Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
Due to neodymium price, their price is higher than average,

Holding force characteristics

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?

The load parameter shown represents the limit force, measured under laboratory conditions, specifically:

on a block made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
whose thickness is min. 10 mm
characterized by even structure
with total lack of distance (without coatings)
for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
at room temperature

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Holding efficiency impacted by working environment parameters, including (from priority):

Distance – the presence of any layer (paint, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
Wall 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 pure iron steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
Thermal factor – high temperature reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets

Skin irritation risks

Certain individuals suffer from a contact allergy to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling may cause an allergic reaction. We strongly advise use protective gloves.

Immense force

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

Keep away from children

Absolutely keep magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.

Magnets are brittle

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle. Impact of two magnets will cause them cracking into shards.

ICD Warning

Medical warning: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.

Thermal limits

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.

Electronic hazard

Data protection: Strong magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Serious injuries

Risk of injury: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Flammability

Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Threat to navigation

An intense magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of compasses in phones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.
