Shopping tips

Flat neodymium magnets i.e. MPL 20x8x4 / N38 are magnets created from neodymium in a flat form. They are appreciated for their exceptionally potent magnetic properties, which are much stronger than ordinary ferrite magnets.
Thanks to their mighty power, flat magnets are regularly applied in devices that require very strong attraction.
Most common temperature resistance of these magnets is 80°C, but depending on the dimensions, this value rises.
In addition, flat magnets often have special coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their strength.
The magnet with the designation MPL 20x8x4 / N38 and a lifting capacity of 4 kg with a weight of just 4.8 grams, making it the ideal choice for applications requiring a flat shape.
Neodymium flat magnets present a range of advantages versus other magnet shapes, which lead to them being the best choice for a multitude of projects:
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets ensure a greater contact surface with adjacent parts, which can be beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These magnets are often applied in various devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is necessary for their operation.
Mounting: The flat form's flat shape simplifies mounting, especially when it is required to attach the magnet to another surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets permits creators greater flexibility in placing them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can offer better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. It’s important to keep in mind that the optimal shape of the magnet depends on the specific project and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, may be a better choice.
How do magnets work? Magnets attract ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, nickel, cobalt and alloys of metals with magnetic properties. Additionally, magnets may lesser affect some other metals, such as steel. Magnets are used in many fields.
Magnets work thanks to the properties of their magnetic field, which arises from the ordered movement of electrons in their structure. The magnetic field of these objects creates attractive interactions, which attract objects made of cobalt or other magnetic materials.

Magnets have two main poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are oppositely oriented. Poles of the same kind, e.g. two north poles, repel each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are commonly used in magnetic technologies, such as motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the greatest strength of attraction, making them indispensable for applications requiring powerful magnetic fields. Moreover, the strength of a magnet depends on its dimensions and the materials used.
Magnets do not attract plastics, glass, wooden materials or most gemstones. Furthermore, magnets do not affect certain metals, such as copper items, aluminum, copper, aluminum, and gold. These metals, although they are conductors of electricity, do not exhibit ferromagnetic properties, meaning that they remain unaffected by a magnet, unless they are subjected to an extremely strong magnetic field.
It’s worth noting that high temperatures can weaken the magnet's effect. The Curie temperature is specific to each type of magnet, 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 and even electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. For this reason, it is important to exercise caution when using magnets.
A neodymium plate magnet with classification N52 and N50 is a strong and extremely powerful metal object with the shape of a plate, that offers strong holding power and universal application. Very good price, 24h delivery, stability and multi-functionality.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their immense magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

  • They retain their magnetic properties for nearly 10 years – the drop is just ~1% (in theory),
  • They protect against demagnetization induced by surrounding magnetic influence remarkably well,
  • In other words, due to the metallic gold coating, the magnet obtains an aesthetic appearance,
  • They possess intense magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
  • Thanks to their enhanced temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the geometry) even at temperatures up to 230°C or more,
  • The ability for precise shaping as well as adjustment to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which extends the scope of their use cases,
  • Wide application in modern technologies – they find application in hard drives, electric drives, healthcare devices and other advanced devices,
  • Thanks to their efficiency per volume, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, with minimal size,

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

  • They may fracture when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, it is suggested to place them in a steel housing. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and additionally strengthens its overall robustness,
  • High temperatures may significantly reduce the magnetic power of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent loss in performance (depending on height). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
  • Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is recommended to use sealed magnets made of rubber for outdoor use,
  • The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining threads in neodymium magnets is difficult,
  • Health risk linked to microscopic shards may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is crucial in the context of child safety. It should also be noted that small elements from these products may interfere with diagnostics if inside the body,
  • High unit cost – neodymium magnets are pricier than other types of magnets (e.g., ferrite), which may limit large-scale applications

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat affects it?

The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, determined under optimal conditions, that is:

  • with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
  • having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
  • with a polished side
  • in conditions of no clearance
  • under perpendicular detachment force
  • in normal thermal conditions

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

Practical lifting force is determined by factors, by priority:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause 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 testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Handle with Care: Neodymium Magnets

Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their power can surprise you.

Read the information on our website on how to properly utilize neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body and unintentional damage to the magnets.

Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets are a source of intense magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

  Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. 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.

The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel allergy.

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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets are extremely fragile, leading to breaking.

In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. Despite being made of metal as well as coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of connection between the magnets, tiny sharp metal pieces can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.

Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.

Neodymium magnets bounce and also touch each other mutually within a distance of several to almost 10 cm from each other.

Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.

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

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, etc. 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.

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.

Pay attention!
