Grip strength decreases significantly with every subsequent millimeter of gap. Note that even the smallest gap (e.g., contamination, varnish, dust) significantly diminishes the holding power. Neodymiums work strongest at the point of direct contact; distance drastically cuts the power. Analyze how quickly the load capacity fall, when the magnet does not touch flatly to the steel surface. When calculating the arrangement, discard redundant distances.

This section defines the estimated force required to cause the slippage of the magnet downwards on a upright steel plate (assuming standard friction). This parameter varies with the distance between the magnet and the surface.

When hanging a magnet on a upright plane (e.g., a car body), it will only hold barely approx. 1/5 of its maximum pull force. Gravitational force as well as a weak degree of grip cause that magnets slide down easier than they pop off the substrate. Want to create a wall mount? Remember that the shear force is much weaker than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a smooth steel, the element will slip down under a noticeably lighter cargo. Application of an anti-slip pad can drastically raise the stability.

A thin sheet cannot focus the entire magnetic field, which squanders power of the holder. Should you install a neodymium to a weak sheet, the magnetism will pass right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize the maximum of this neodymium's potential, you require a sufficiently solid backing of steel. The material oversaturation causes that on sheet metal structures (e.g., appliance housings), the magnet holds weaker. We suggest choosing the steel thickness based on the following data.

Standard neodymium magnets change their properties power above the temperature limit. Watch out for overheating – high temperature can permanently damage this magnet. With increasing heat, the magnet's power briefly lowers. Avoid using this magnet near heat sources higher than its safe range. Exceeding the critical threshold will result in irreversible degradation of magnetic properties.
*Technical advisory: Thermal stability is determined by both grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Low-profile magnets (low permeance coefficient) may lose charge permanently at lower temperatures than taller cylinders. Warning indicator in the table points to permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two magnetic products attract each other from a much further distance than a magnet and sheet combination. Such a system of two magnets generates a stronger field and a larger range of action. Want to build a solid fastener? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Exercise caution that when bringing together two magnets, the impact force is huge. The levitation is slightly lower than the attraction, but still large.
*Field value in repulsion mode is approximately ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
Attention: Results show friction force of two same magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni layer).

Extremely neodym field poses a real danger to IT equipment and medical implants. These magnets produce a field that disrupts operation of digital equipment. Remember: the invisible magnetic field acts through matter and plastic. Special caution must be taken by people with hearing aids and drug dispensers. Influence will be felt by: automatic timepieces, remotes, speakers, and displays. Do not place the magnet near cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are delicate – a collision with steel risks their cracking. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can destroy the magnet or dangerous crushing to fingers. Always hold the magnet during mounting so it doesn't hit violently against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h ends with a crack of the magnet. Wear eye protection when playing with powerful specimens.

1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.84

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 Pc (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 Pc 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 20x20x20 / N38 features a flat shape and professional pulling force, making it an ideal solution for building separators and machines. This rectangular block with a force of 151.12 N is ready for shipment in 24h, allowing for rapid realization of your project. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, giving it an aesthetic appearance.
The key to success is sliding the magnets along their largest connection plane (using e.g., the edge of a table), which is easier than trying to tear them apart directly. Watch your fingers! Magnets with a force of 15.40 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 20x20x20 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as magnetic separators and linear motors. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 15.40 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.
Cyanoacrylate glues (super glue type) are good only for small magnets; for larger plates, we recommend resins. 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).
Standardly, the MPL 20x20x20 / N38 model is magnetized through the thickness (dimension 20 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. Such a pole arrangement ensures maximum holding capacity when pressing against the sheet, creating a closed magnetic circuit.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 20 mm (length), 20 mm (width), and 20 mm (thickness). The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 15.40 kg (force ~151.12 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high grade of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Pros

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They have stable power, and over around ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
  • Magnets very well protect themselves against demagnetization caused by external fields,
  • Thanks to the smooth finish, the layer of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an clean appearance,
  • They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of accurate creating and adjusting to precise needs,
  • Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in computer drives, electric drive systems, advanced medical instruments, also modern systems.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Weaknesses

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mount.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what contributes to it?

The lifting capacity listed is a theoretical maximum value conducted under the following configuration:
  • on a base made of structural steel, effectively closing the magnetic flux
  • with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
  • with a surface free of scratches
  • under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at temperature room level

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

During everyday use, the actual holding force depends on a number of factors, presented from the most important:
  • Distance (between the magnet and the plate), because even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
  • Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Steel thickness – insufficiently thick plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be wasted into the air.
  • Plate material – low-carbon steel attracts best. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal factor – high temperature weakens pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

Crushing force

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Handling rules

Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Do not overheat magnets

Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you require resistance above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Warning for allergy sufferers

Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction appears, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.

Data carriers

Data protection: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Keep away from electronics

Navigation devices and smartphones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.

Fire warning

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Magnets are brittle

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Keep away from children

Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Keep away from children and animals.

Warning for heart patients

For implant holders: Powerful magnets affect medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
