Shopping tips

Flat neodymium magnets i.e. MPL 20x5x5 / N38 are magnets made from neodymium in a rectangular form. They are valued for their very strong magnetic properties, which surpass ordinary ferrite magnets.
Due to their strength, flat magnets are frequently applied in devices that require exceptional adhesion.
Typical temperature resistance of these magnets is 80 °C, but with larger dimensions, this value rises.
Additionally, flat magnets usually have different coatings applied to their surfaces, e.g. nickel, gold, or chrome, to improve their strength.
The magnet named MPL 20x5x5 / N38 and a magnetic strength 3.95 kg weighing just 3.75 grams, making it the excellent choice for applications requiring a flat shape.
Neodymium flat magnets offer a range of advantages versus other magnet shapes, which make them being a perfect solution for many applications:
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets ensure a larger contact surface with other components, which can be beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These magnets are often utilized in various devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the flat shape is important for their operation.
Mounting: The flat form's flat shape makes it easier mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to another surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets permits creators greater flexibility in arranging them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can offer better stability, minimizing the risk of shifting or rotating. However, it's important to note that the optimal shape of the magnet depends on the given use and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, are more appropriate.
How do magnets work? Magnets attract objects made of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron elements, nickel, cobalt or alloys of metals with magnetic properties. Moreover, magnets may weaker affect alloys containing iron, such as steel. It’s worth noting that magnets are utilized in various devices and technologies.
Magnets work thanks to the properties of their magnetic field, which is generated by the movement of electric charges within their material. Magnetic fields of these objects creates attractive forces, which affect materials containing cobalt or other magnetic materials.

Magnets have two poles: north (N) and south (S), which attract each other when they are oppositely oriented. Poles of the same kind, e.g. two north poles, act repelling on each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are regularly used in electrical devices, such as motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the greatest strength of attraction, making them perfect for applications requiring powerful magnetic fields. Additionally, the strength of a magnet depends on its size and the materials used.
Not all materials react to magnets, and examples of such substances are plastics, glass, wood or most gemstones. Moreover, magnets do not affect certain metals, such as copper items, aluminum materials, copper, aluminum, and gold. These metals, although they are conductors of electricity, do not exhibit ferromagnetic properties, meaning that they do not respond to a standard magnetic field, unless exposed to a very strong magnetic field.
It’s worth noting that high temperatures can weaken the magnet's effect. Every magnetic material has its Curie point, meaning that under such conditions, the magnet stops being magnetic. Interestingly, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, magnetic stripe cards or electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. For this reason, it is important to avoid placing magnets near such devices.
A flat magnet in classes N52 and N50 is a powerful and highly strong metallic component in the form of a plate, featuring strong holding power and universal applicability. Good price, fast shipping, resistance and multi-functionality.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

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

  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years, the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
  • They show superior resistance to demagnetization from outside magnetic sources,
  • By applying a shiny layer of gold, the element gains a modern look,
  • They have very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
  • With the right combination of materials, they reach increased thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the form),
  • The ability for custom shaping as well as adaptation to custom needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which enhances their versatility in applications,
  • Significant impact in advanced technical fields – they serve a purpose in data storage devices, rotating machines, medical equipment as well as sophisticated instruments,
  • Compactness – despite their small size, they deliver powerful magnetism, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:

  • They may fracture when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, it is advisable to use in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage and enhances its overall resistance,
  • They lose field intensity at increased temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent reduction in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the dimensions and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
  • Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is common to use sealed magnets made of rubber for outdoor use,
  • The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining fine details in neodymium magnets is restricted,
  • Potential hazard related to magnet particles may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is notable in the health of young users. Additionally, tiny components from these devices have the potential to complicate medical imaging when ingested,
  • Higher purchase price is one of the drawbacks compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat it depends on?

The given strength of the magnet means the optimal strength, assessed under optimal conditions, namely:

  • with mild steel, used as a magnetic flux conductor
  • having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
  • with a smooth surface
  • in conditions of no clearance
  • with vertical force applied
  • under standard ambient temperature

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

The lifting capacity of a magnet is determined by in practice the following factors, from primary to secondary:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
  • Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
  • Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
  • Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
  • Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
  • Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.

* Lifting capacity was measured using a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance {between} the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Caution with Neodymium Magnets

Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.

If joining of neodymium magnets is not under control, then they may crumble and also crack. Remember not to approach them to each other or have them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.

If you have a nickel allergy, avoid contact with neodymium magnets.

Studies show a small percentage of people have allergies to certain metals, including nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.

Neodymium magnets are over 10 times stronger than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their strength can shock you.

To handle magnets properly, it is best to familiarize yourself with our information beforehand. This will help you avoid significant harm to your body and the magnets themselves.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.

Neodymium magnetic are especially fragile, resulting in shattering.

Neodymium magnetic are delicate as well as will crack if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. Despite being made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of collision between the magnets, tiny sharp metal fragments can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

Although magnets have shown to retain their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, this temperature may vary depending on the type of material, shape, and intended use of the magnet.

Keep neodymium magnets away from the wallet, computer, and TV.

Neodymium magnets produce intense magnetic fields that can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.

 It is essential to maintain neodymium magnets out of reach from youngest children.

Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. Small magnets pose a serious choking hazard or can attract to each other in the intestines. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.

Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.

Magnetic fields interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation for air and sea transport, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

Exercise caution!
