1. Sliding resistance

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly weakens the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.38

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.

This product is an extremely strong plate magnet made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 25x10x5 mm and a weight of 9.38 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. As a block magnet with high power (approx. 7.49 kg), this product is available immediately from our warehouse in Poland. The durable anti-corrosion layer ensures a long lifespan in a dry environment, protecting the core from oxidation.
The key to success is shifting 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 7.49 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. 7.49 kg), they are ideal as closers in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Customers often choose this model for workshop organization on strips and for advanced DIY and modeling projects, where precision and power count.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 25x10x5 / 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).
Standardly, the MPL 25x10x5 / N38 model is magnetized through the thickness (dimension 5 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. This is the most popular configuration for block magnets used in separators and holders.
This model is characterized by dimensions 25x10x5 mm, which, at a weight of 9.38 g, makes it an element with high energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 7.49 kg (force ~73.45 N), which, with such a compact shape, proves the high power of the material. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Strengths

Besides their immense field intensity, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They retain attractive force for nearly 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (according to analyses),
  • Neodymium magnets are remarkably resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external field sources,
  • The use of an refined coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
  • Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to flexibility in constructing and the ability to customize to specific needs,
  • Fundamental importance in innovative solutions – they are used in data components, drive modules, medical devices, and industrial machines.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets and proposals for their use:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore when using outdoors, we suggest using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mechanism.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small elements of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat contributes to it?

The lifting capacity listed is a theoretical maximum value performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • on a plate made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
  • possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
  • with a plane perfectly flat
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
  • for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at ambient temperature room level

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Bear in mind that the magnet holding will differ subject to elements below, in order of importance:
  • Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) significantly weakens the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Angle of force application – maximum parameter is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures decrease magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Fire warning

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Cards and drives

Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.

Shattering risk

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Powerful field

Use magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can surprise even experienced users. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their force.

Thermal limits

Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its properties and strength.

Warning for heart patients

Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.

Metal Allergy

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If redness happens, cease working with magnets and use protective gear.

GPS and phone interference

An intense magnetic field interferes with the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a device to avoid damaging the sensors.

Crushing risk

Large magnets can crush fingers instantly. Never put your hand between two strong magnets.

Choking Hazard

Only for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Store away from kids and pets.
