1. Sliding resistance

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

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

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

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

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 industrial pulling force, making it a perfect solution for building separators and machines. This magnetic 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.
Plate magnets MPL 25x10x3 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as magnetic separators and linear motors. They work great as fasteners under tiles, wood, or glass. Customers often choose this model for hanging tools on strips and for advanced DIY and modeling projects, where precision and power count.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 25x10x3 / N38, we recommend utilizing two-component adhesives (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. For lighter applications or mounting on smooth surfaces, branded foam tape (e.g., 3M VHB) will work, provided the surface is perfectly degreased. Avoid chemically aggressive glues or hot glue, which can demagnetize neodymium (above 80°C).
The magnetic axis runs through the shortest dimension, which is typical for gripper magnets. In practice, this means that this magnet has the greatest attraction force on its main planes (25x10 mm), which is ideal for flat mounting. Such a pole arrangement ensures maximum holding capacity when pressing against the sheet, creating a closed magnetic circuit.
This model is characterized by dimensions 25x10x3 mm, which, at a weight of 5.63 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. It is a magnetic block with dimensions 25x10x3 mm and a self-weight of 5.63 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their strong power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose power, even over approximately 10 years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Neodymium magnets are extremely resistant to magnetic field loss caused by magnetic disturbances,
  • By applying a shiny layer of silver, the element has an professional look,
  • Magnets exhibit extremely high magnetic induction on the surface,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Thanks to modularity in designing and the capacity to customize to specific needs,
  • Key role in future technologies – they serve a role in computer drives, motor assemblies, diagnostic systems, and technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets and proposals for their use:
  • At strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease 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 durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • We recommend a housing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small components of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?

The force parameter is a result of laboratory testing conducted under specific, ideal conditions:
  • on a base made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
  • possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
  • characterized by smoothness
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
  • under vertical force direction (90-degree angle)
  • at standard ambient temperature

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

Effective lifting capacity is affected by working environment parameters, such as (from priority):
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
  • Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Plate thickness – too thin plate does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be lost into the air.
  • Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.

H&S for magnets
Keep away from electronics

GPS units and mobile phones are extremely sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.

Beware of splinters

Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.

Electronic hazard

Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Do not drill into magnets

Machining of neodymium magnets poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Bodily injuries

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!

Demagnetization risk

Avoid heat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Warning for heart patients

Individuals with a ICD should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the operation of the life-saving device.

Metal Allergy

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and choose coated magnets.

Handling rules

Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can react.

No play value

Neodymium magnets are not toys. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a critical condition and requires immediate surgery.
