Magnetic force decreases significantly with every mm of distance. Keep in mind that even a microscopic distance (e.g., contamination, varnish, veneer) noticeably reduces the pull force. Neodymiums hold most effectively at the point of direct contact; gap kills the power. See how rapidly the load capacity fall, when the magnet does not adhere flatly to the steel surface. When calculating the assembly, discard redundant distances.

Table 2: Shear force (vertical surface)
MPL 20x10x5 / N38

The table below calculates the estimated shear load sufficient to start the slippage of the magnet down against a vertical steel wall (assuming standard friction coefficient). This parameter is relative to the separation distance between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Wall mounting (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 mounting a holder on a vertical plane (e.g., a fridge), it will maintain just approx. 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravitational force and a low friction coefficient cause that holders slip easier than they detach. Designing a wall mount? Remember that the shear force is significantly lower than the maximum static pull force. On a painted metal, the element will give way down under a significantly smaller cargo. Application of an anti-slip pad can significantly raise the stability.

12 mm	100%	6.15 kg / 13.56 lbs 6150.0 g / 60.3 N

A thin sheet is unable to focus the entire magnetic field, which squanders power of the holder. Should you install a neodymium to a thin surface, the flux will pass right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize the maximum of this magnet's power, you need a suitably thick piece of metal. The material oversaturation means that on sheet metal structures (e.g., appliance housings), the product shows lower pull force. We suggest choosing the steel dimension based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums irreversibly lose parameters past the thermal threshold. Watch out for overheating – high temperature can permanently destroy this product. With every degree above norm, the neodymium's capacity momentarily lowers. Avoid using this product close to heaters higher than its working range. Exceeding the critical threshold will result in destruction of magnetic properties.

*Engineering note: Heat tolerance is determined by both grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Flat magnets (pancake types) are more susceptible to demagnetization at lower temperatures compared to rod magnets. Red status in the table indicates a risk of irreversible loss for this specific geometry.

Two magnets attract each other from a wider radius than a magnet and sheet combination. Such a system of two magnets produces a massive flux and a wider radius of action. Planning to create a solid fastener? Utilize two neodymiums instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Remember that when bringing together two magnets, the impact force is massive. The levitation is a bit weaker than the connection force, but still impressive.
*Flux density between like poles reaches ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
Note: Estimates demonstrate shear force of two same magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni layer).

Table 7: Safety (HSE) (electronics) - precautionary measures
MPL 20x10x5 / N38

Object / Device	Limit (Gauss) / mT	Safe distance
Pacemaker	5 Gs (0.5 mT)	7.5 cm
Hearing aid	10 Gs (1.0 mT)	6.0 cm
Mechanical watch	20 Gs (2.0 mT)	4.5 cm

Extremely neodym field is a real danger to electronic devices as well as pacemakers. These NdFeB products generate a flux that destroys function of digital equipment. Remember: the invisible magnetic field acts through matter and glass. Exceptional care must be taken by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: automatic timepieces, remotes, speakers, and screens. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Impact energy (kinetic energy) - collision effects
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

NdFeB products are delicate – a violent impact against metal can result in shattering. Watch the impact speed – a magnet released freely turns into a projectile. Striking energy can cause material chips or painful pinches to fingers. Hold the magnet firmly during bringing near metal so it doesn't hit violently against the steel surface. A collision at high speed means shattering of the neodymium. Wear eye protection when playing with large magnets.

Environment	Effective steel pull	Effect
Air (land)	6.15 kg	Standard
Water (riverbed)	7.04 kg (+0.89 kg buoyancy gain)	+14.5%

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

In water, the magnet feels stronger thanks to Archimedes' principle. As a result, your magnet will pull a heavier object from the bottom than if you lifted it in the air.

1. Shear force

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Thermal stability

*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) = 0.42

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.

5253.21 ZŁ brutto / pcs

This product is a very powerful magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 20x10x5 mm and a weight of 7.5 g, guarantees premium class connection. As a magnetic bar with high power (approx. 6.15 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland. 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 20x10x5 / 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.

They constitute a key element in the production of wind generators and material handling systems. They work great as invisible mounts 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.

Cyanoacrylate glues (super glue type) are good only for small magnets; for larger plates, we recommend resins. 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.

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 high energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force 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.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Advantages

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

Their magnetic field is maintained, and after around 10 years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
Neodymium magnets are characterized by exceptionally resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external magnetic fields,
By applying a shiny layer of nickel, the element gains an modern look,
They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
Possibility of precise modeling as well as adapting to individual applications,
Key role in innovative solutions – they serve a role in data components, motor assemblies, precision medical tools, also technologically advanced constructions.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in tiny dimensions, which enables their usage in miniature devices

Weaknesses

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.

To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
Neodymium magnets lose their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
We suggest cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Lifting parameters

Highest magnetic holding force – what it depends on?

Magnet power was defined for optimal configuration, assuming:

with the contact of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
characterized by even structure
with direct contact (without coatings)
during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
in neutral thermal conditions

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

Bear in mind that the working load will differ subject to elements below, in order of importance:

Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels reduce magnetic properties and holding force.
Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
Temperature – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets

Crushing risk

Watch your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!

Do not give to children

Absolutely store magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are tragic.

Allergy Warning

Medical facts indicate that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact and select encased magnets.

Impact on smartphones

Note: rare earth magnets produce a field that interferes with precision electronics. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, device, and navigation systems.

Beware of splinters

Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Safe distance

Powerful magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Stay away of at least 10 cm.

Operating temperature

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its properties and pulling force.

Flammability

Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.

Medical implants

Patients with a ICD must maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.

Respect the power

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