Magnetic force weakens sharply per each millimeter of spacing. Keep in mind that even the smallest gap (e.g., contamination, varnish, rust) noticeably reduces the pull force. Neodymiums operate most effectively during direct contact; gap kills the force. Observe how quickly the pull force fall, when the product does not touch tightly to the metal substrate. When designing the mounting, discard additional spacers.

The table below calculates the estimated holding capacity needed to cause the sliding of the magnet down against a upright metal surface (assuming standard friction). The holding force is relative to the separation distance between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Wall mounting (shearing) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MPL 20x10x1 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.17 kg / 0.37 LBS 168.0 g / 1.6 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.11 kg / 0.25 LBS 112.0 g / 1.1 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.06 kg / 0.12 LBS 56.0 g / 0.5 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.28 kg / 0.62 LBS 280.0 g / 2.7 N

When mounting a magnet on a upright wall (e.g., a board), it you can count on only approx. 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravitational force as well as a low friction coefficient cause that holders move down easier than they pop off the substrate. Planning a hanger? Remember that the shear force is much weaker than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a painted metal, the magnet will slide down under a noticeably lighter cargo. Utilizing a rubberized coating can drastically raise the stability.

12 mm	100%	0.56 kg / 1.23 LBS 560.0 g / 5.5 N

A thin metal plate is incapable of take in the entire magnetic field, which squanders power of the magnet. If you install a neodymium to a too thin substrate, the magnetism will pass right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To utilize full efficiency of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid element of steel. The saturation effect causes that on sheet metal structures (e.g., appliance housings), the holder holds weaker. We recommend selecting the steel dimension from these parameters.

Standard neodymium magnets lose parameters after exceeding the maximum temperature. Protect against heat – high temperature can irreversibly destroy this magnet. With every degree above norm, the neodymium's capacity temporarily decreases. Avoid using this product close to ovens higher than its operating temperature limit. Exceeding the critical threshold will cause permanent loss of magnetic properties.

*Technical advisory: Thermal stability depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Low-profile magnets (pancake types) risk losing magnetic properties sooner than long magnets. Red status in the table signals a risk of irreversible loss for this particular item.

Two magnetic products interact from a significantly greater distance than a neodymium and metal setup. The connection of two magnets produces a massive flux and a further horizon of action. Planning to create a strong closure? Utilize two neodymiums instead of a neodymium and a steel. Remember that when connecting a pair of magnets, the pinch force is massive. The levitation is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still large.
*Flux density for N-N configuration reaches ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (caused by magnetic field nullification).
Note: Figures refer to friction force of dual matching magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Table 7: Safety (HSE) (implants) - warnings

Powerful magnet radiation poses a real danger to electronic devices as well as pacemakers. These magnets produce a flux that prevents correct functioning of sensitive medical devices. Be aware: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and glass. Increased vigilance must be taken by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: automatic timepieces, car keys, membranes, and displays. Do not place the magnet near cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are very brittle – a violent impact against metal risks their cracking. Control the attraction moment – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Striking energy can trigger coating fragments or dangerous crushing to fingers. Always hold the magnet during installation so it doesn't hit with great force against the metal. A collision at high speed almost guarantees destruction of the neodymium. Wear eye protection when working 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.

In water, the magnet feels stronger thanks to Archimedes' principle. Buoyancy helps in lifting finds.

1. Shear force

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.10

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.

Model MPL 20x10x1 / N38 features a flat shape and industrial pulling force, making it a perfect solution for building separators and machines. This magnetic block with a force of 5.46 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 block magnets requires a technique based on sliding (moving one relative to the other), rather than forceful pulling apart. To separate the MPL 20x10x1 / 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 20x10x1 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as magnetic separators 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 20x10x1 / N38, we recommend utilizing 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. Avoid chemically aggressive glues or hot glue, which can demagnetize neodymium (above 80°C).

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. 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: 20 mm (length), 10 mm (width), and 1 mm (thickness). It is a magnetic block with dimensions 20x10x1 mm and a self-weight of 1.5 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Pros as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Strengths

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

They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over around 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss as a result of external magnetic sources,
In other words, due to the aesthetic finish of nickel, the element becomes visually attractive,
Magnets are distinguished by excellent magnetic induction on the outer layer,
Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are able to function (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
Possibility of individual forming and optimizing to atypical applications,
Key role in advanced technology sectors – they find application in hard drives, electric drive systems, medical devices, and modern systems.
Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Cons

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
Neodymium magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop 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 very resistant to heat
Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, when using outdoors
We recommend casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what it depends on?

The declared magnet strength concerns the limit force, measured under optimal environment, specifically:

with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
characterized by lack of roughness
without any air gap between the magnet and steel
for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
at standard ambient temperature

Key elements affecting lifting force

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

Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
Steel grade – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may attract less.
Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Rough texture create air cushions, reducing force.
Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets

No play value

Always keep magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.

Machining danger

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Thermal limits

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

Magnetic media

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

Fragile material

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets leads to them shattering into small pieces.

Bone fractures

Large magnets can crush fingers instantly. Do not put your hand between two strong magnets.

Allergy Warning

Certain individuals suffer from a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in an allergic reaction. We recommend use protective gloves.

Medical implants

People with a ICD must keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.

Handling guide

Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Keep away from electronics

A strong magnetic field negatively affects the operation of compasses in phones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets close to a smartphone to prevent breaking the sensors.
