1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.25

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.

Model MPL 25x10x3 / 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 40.56 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 4.14 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.
They constitute a key element in the production of wind generators and material handling systems. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 4.14 kg), they are ideal as hidden locks in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Customers often choose this model for hanging tools 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 clean and degrease 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.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 25 mm (length), 10 mm (width), and 3 mm (thickness). The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 4.14 kg (force ~40.56 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high power of the material. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Strengths and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • Their strength remains stable, and after around 10 years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
  • Neodymium magnets remain extremely resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external interference,
  • In other words, due to the glossy finish of silver, the element gains visual value,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet remains strong,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to freedom in constructing and the capacity to adapt to individual projects,
  • Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they serve a role in magnetic memories, brushless drives, precision medical tools, also modern systems.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited ability of creating threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is a housing - mounting mechanism.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The specified lifting capacity represents the limit force, obtained under laboratory conditions, specifically:
  • with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
  • with an ground contact surface
  • with total lack of distance (without coatings)
  • during pulling in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • in neutral thermal conditions

Key elements affecting lifting force

It is worth knowing that the magnet holding will differ influenced by the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Gap between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) drastically reduces the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of generating force.
  • Steel grade – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Surface structure – the more even the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature – temperature increase results in weakening of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Fragile material

Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching shards into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Do not drill into magnets

Mechanical processing of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Pinching danger

Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Handling guide

Before use, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Avoid contact if allergic

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction appears, immediately stop working with magnets and use protective gear.

Danger to pacemakers

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Threat to electronics

Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Danger to the youngest

Always keep magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.

Threat to navigation

GPS units and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.

Heat warning

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
