Magnetic force decreases sharply with every subsequent millimeter of gap. Keep in mind that even the smallest gap (e.g., dirt, paint, veneer) noticeably diminishes the holding power. Magnetic products work strongest at the point of direct contact; gap nullifies the force. See how flashily the load capacity plummet, when the magnet does not adhere tightly to the steel surface. When calculating the assembly, avoid additional spacers.

The following data defines the estimated shear load necessary to start the shifting of the magnet downwards against a upright metal surface (considering standard friction coefficient). The holding force is relative to the gap size between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (shearing) - vertical pull
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 placing a holder on a vertical plane (e.g., a board), it will only hold only about 20%-30% of nominal attraction strength. Gravitational force and a weak degree of grip cause that magnets slip faster than they detach. Designing a vertical fastening? Consider that the shear force is significantly lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a smooth steel, the magnet will slip down under a much lighter cargo. Utilizing a rubberized coating can drastically raise the stability.

A thin sheet is unable to take in the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the holder. Should you attach a powerful product to a weak sheet, the field will pass right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize 100% of this neodymium's power, you require a sufficiently solid element of steel. The material oversaturation means that on thin elements (e.g., thin profiles), the product shows lower pull force. We recommend selecting the steel dimension based on the following data.

Standard neodymium magnets change their properties parameters above the temperature limit. Protect against heat – excessive heat can permanently destroy this product. As the temperature rises, the magnet's power temporarily decreases. Do not use this product near heat sources higher than its operating temperature limit. Exceeding the critical threshold will lead to irreversible degradation of magnetic properties.

*Engineering note: Temperature resistance depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (low Pc) are more susceptible to demagnetization sooner compared to rod magnets. The danger warning in the table indicates permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two strong neodymiums attract each other from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and sheet combination. The connection of magnet-to-magnet creates a more powerful interaction and a larger range of action. Planning to create a strong closure? Utilize two neodymiums instead of a neodymium and a steel. Be careful that when connecting a pair of magnets, the pinch force is huge. The levitation is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still significant.
*Flux density in repulsion mode is approximately ~0 Gs at the geometric center of the gap (due to field cancellation).
Attention: Figures apply to shear force of dual same neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Table 7: Protective zones (electronics) - precautionary measures

A strong magnetic field poses a serious hazard to IT equipment and pacemakers. These magnets produce a field that prevents correct functioning of sensitive medical devices. Remember: the invisible magnetic field passes through tissues and housings. Increased vigilance must be exercised by people with hearing aids and drug dispensers. Influence will be felt by: mechanical watches, car keys, speakers, and screens. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Impact energy (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

Magnetic elements are prone to chipping – a collision with steel risks their cracking. Watch the impact speed – a magnet released freely becomes dangerous. Striking energy can trigger coating fragments or injury to skin. Be sure to control the product during mounting so it doesn't hit with great force against the steel surface. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h almost guarantees destruction of the magnet. Wear safety glasses when working with large magnets.

Rust risk: This magnet has a standard nickel coating. After use in water, it must be dried and maintained immediately, otherwise it will rust!

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

1. Vertical hold

*Note: 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. Power loss vs temp

*For N38 material, 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.

This product is a very powerful magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 17x17x3 mm and a weight of 6.5 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. This rectangular 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. To separate the MPL 17x17x3 / 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. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.

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. For lighter applications or mounting on smooth surfaces, branded foam tape (e.g., 3M VHB) will work, provided the surface is perfectly degreased. Avoid chemically aggressive glues or hot glue, which can demagnetize neodymium (above 80°C).

Standardly, the MPL 17x17x3 / N38 model is magnetized axially (dimension 3 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on its largest, flat surfaces. Thanks to this, it works best when "sticking" to sheet metal or another magnet with a large surface area. This is the most popular configuration for block magnets used in separators and holders.

This model is characterized by dimensions 17x17x3 mm, which, at a weight of 6.5 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. It is a magnetic block with dimensions 17x17x3 mm and a self-weight of 6.5 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.

Advantages

Besides their exceptional magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

Their magnetic field is maintained, and after approximately 10 years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
Neodymium magnets are exceptionally resistant to demagnetization caused by external interference,
A magnet with a smooth gold surface has an effective appearance,
Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which allows for strong attraction,
Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
Thanks to versatility in shaping and the ability to modify to unusual requirements,
Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they serve a role in data components, electromotive mechanisms, medical equipment, and technologically advanced constructions.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in tiny dimensions, which enables their usage in small systems

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a special holder, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
NdFeB magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop 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 very 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 stable to moisture, in case of application outdoors
We suggest cover - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?

The force parameter is a measurement result performed under specific, ideal conditions:

using a sheet made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a ideal flux conductor
with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
with an ground touching surface
under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
under vertical application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
in temp. approx. 20°C

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Effective lifting capacity is affected by specific conditions, including (from most important):

Distance (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
Angle of force application – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the plate is standardly several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
Metal type – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
Thermal factor – high temperature reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets

Danger to the youngest

Only for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Keep out of reach of children and animals.

Power loss in heat

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require resistance above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

ICD Warning

Individuals with a ICD must keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the life-saving device.

Dust is flammable

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

Safe operation

Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.

Fragile material

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets will cause them cracking into shards.

Compass and GPS

An intense magnetic field negatively affects the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets close to a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.

Electronic hazard

Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.

Metal Allergy

Certain individuals experience a contact allergy to nickel, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Extended handling may cause a rash. It is best to use safety gloves.

Crushing risk
