Magnetic force drops significantly with every mm of distance. Remember that even a very thin break (e.g., dirt, varnish, rust) strongly weakens the grip. Magnets operate strongest in perfect adhesion; air break nullifies the force. See how flashily the parameters plummet, when the magnet does not adhere directly to the metal substrate. When calculating the mounting, discard unnecessary gaps.

This section shows the theoretical shear load needed to initiate the downward movement of the magnet downwards along a vertical steel wall (considering standard friction coefficient). This value depends on the separation distance between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (shearing) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MPL 20x10x5 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	1.85 kg / 4.07 lbs 1845.0 g / 18.1 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	1.23 kg / 2.71 lbs 1230.0 g / 12.1 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.62 kg / 1.36 lbs 615.0 g / 6.0 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	3.08 kg / 6.78 lbs 3075.0 g / 30.2 N

When placing a magnet on a vertical plane (e.g., a fridge), it will only hold barely about 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravity and a low friction coefficient mean that holders slide down faster than they pop off the substrate. Planning a vertical fastening? Consider that the sliding force is much weaker than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a painted metal, the element will slip down under a significantly smaller load. Using a rubber coating can significantly raise the stability.

A thin metal plate is not enough to conduct the entire magnetic field, which weakens actual performance of the holder. Should you mount a strong magnet to a thin surface, the magnetism will pass right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To utilize 100% of this neodymium's power, you need a suitably thick element of steel. The saturation phenomenon means that on delicate walls (e.g., thin profiles), the magnet works worse. We advise picking the steel cross-section according to the table below.

Classic neodymiums irreversibly lose parameters after exceeding the maximum temperature. Watch out for overheating – heat can permanently demagnetize this magnet. As the temperature rises, the magnet's force briefly lowers. Avoid using this magnet in hot environments 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. Flat magnets (pancake types) may lose charge permanently at lower temperatures than long magnets. Red status in the table points to a risk of irreversible loss for this specific geometry.

Two magnetic products attract each other from a wider radius than a neodymium and metal combination. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet produces a massive flux and a further horizon of operation. Designing a strong closure? Apply two magnets instead of a neodymium and a steel. Be careful that when attracting two neodymiums, the collision energy is massive. The levitation is a bit weaker than the connection force, but still significant.
*Field value between like poles is approximately ~0 Gs at the midpoint of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
Important: Results show sliding force of two matching neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni layer).

Powerful magnet radiation is a real danger to IT equipment as well as medical implants. These neodymiums produce a field that prevents correct functioning of digital equipment. Notice: the unseen radiation penetrates the body and housings. Special caution must be taken by people with cochlear implants and insulin pumps. Influence will be felt by: automatic timepieces, remotes, membranes, and screens. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or sensitive navigation tools.

Table 8: Impact energy (cracking risk) - warning
MPL 20x10x5 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	29.36 km/h (8.16 m/s)	0.25 J
30 mm	50.03 km/h (13.90 m/s)	0.72 J
50 mm	64.58 km/h (17.94 m/s)	1.21 J
100 mm	91.32 km/h (25.37 m/s)	2.41 J

Magnetic elements are very brittle – a collision with steel causes immediate chipping. Watch the impact speed – a magnet released freely turns into a projectile. Kinetic force can trigger coating fragments or painful pinches to fingers. Be sure to control the product during installation so it doesn't hit with great force against the steel surface. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h means shattering of the neodymium. Wear eye protection when handling with powerful specimens.

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

Water displaces steel, making heavy objects slightly lighter. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds just a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Temperature resistance

*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) = 0.42

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.

Component MPL 20x10x5 / N38 features a low profile and industrial pulling force, making it an ideal solution for building separators and machines. This rectangular block with a force of 60.31 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 6.15 kg can pinch very hard and cause hematomas. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.

Plate magnets MPL 20x10x5 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as filters catching filings and linear motors. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 6.15 kg), they are ideal as closers in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Their rectangular shape facilitates precise gluing into milled sockets in wood or plastic.

For mounting flat magnets MPL 20x10x5 / N38, it is best to use two-component adhesives (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.

This model is characterized by dimensions 20x10x5 mm, which, at a weight of 7.5 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 6.15 kg (force ~60.31 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high power of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Pros

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

They retain full power for around ten years – the drop is just ~1% (according to analyses),
Magnets effectively resist against demagnetization caused by external fields,
By applying a smooth coating of silver, the element presents an modern look,
They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
Possibility of exact creating and optimizing to precise applications,
Fundamental importance in high-tech industry – they are utilized in hard drives, electromotive mechanisms, precision medical tools, as well as complex engineering applications.
Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Disadvantages

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals

At strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
We suggest cover - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these magnets can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Highest magnetic holding force – what contributes to it?

Information about lifting capacity is the result of a measurement for optimal configuration, taking into account:

with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
characterized by smoothness
under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
under axial force vector (90-degree angle)
at standard ambient temperature

Key elements affecting lifting force

Effective lifting capacity is affected by specific conditions, mainly (from priority):

Gap (between the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
Force direction – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Plate thickness – insufficiently thick sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be wasted into the air.
Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
Thermal factor – high temperature reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Warnings

Do not drill into magnets

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Life threat

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt electronics. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.

Heat sensitivity

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Respect the power

Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.

Choking Hazard

These products are not intended for children. Swallowing a few magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a direct threat to life and necessitates urgent medical intervention.

Sensitization to coating

Some people experience a contact allergy to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling might lead to a rash. We suggest wear safety gloves.

Beware of splinters

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Phone sensors

GPS units and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.

Electronic hazard

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

Crushing risk

Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
