1. Sliding resistance

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*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) = 0.38

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 a very powerful magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 25x10x5 mm and a weight of 9.38 g, guarantees premium class connection. This magnetic block with a force of 73.45 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. To separate the MPL 25x10x5 / N38 model, firmly slide one magnet over the edge of the other until the attraction force decreases. We recommend care, because after separation, the magnets may want to violently snap back together, which threatens pinching the skin. Never use metal tools for prying, as the brittle NdFeB material may chip and damage your eyes.
Plate magnets MPL 25x10x5 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as filters catching filings and linear motors. They work great as fasteners under tiles, wood, or glass. Their rectangular shape facilitates precise gluing into milled sockets in wood or plastic.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 25x10x5 / N38, it is best to use 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. Remember to roughen and wash the magnet surface before gluing, which significantly increases the adhesion of the glue to the nickel coating.
Standardly, the MPL 25x10x5 / N38 model is magnetized axially (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. Such a pole arrangement ensures maximum holding capacity when pressing against the sheet, creating a closed magnetic circuit.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 25 mm (length), 10 mm (width), and 5 mm (thickness). It is a magnetic block with dimensions 25x10x5 mm and a self-weight of 9.38 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Besides their tremendous strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over more than ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • Neodymium magnets prove to be extremely resistant to demagnetization caused by external magnetic fields,
  • A magnet with a smooth nickel surface has an effective appearance,
  • Magnets exhibit huge magnetic induction on the active area,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Considering the potential of free molding and customization to custom needs, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a wide range of geometric configurations, which increases their versatility,
  • Key role in innovative solutions – they are utilized in computer drives, electromotive mechanisms, precision medical tools, and technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • At strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of power (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • We suggest casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complex forms.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat contributes to it?

The specified lifting capacity represents the limit force, obtained under optimal environment, meaning:
  • using a plate made of high-permeability steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
  • with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • with direct contact (no paint)
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at standard ambient temperature

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

Effective lifting capacity is affected by specific conditions, such as (from most important):
  • Distance (between the magnet and the metal), since even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Steel thickness – too thin sheet does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be escaped into the air.
  • Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Plate texture – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Immense force

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and connect with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.

Magnetic media

Powerful magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Stay away of min. 10 cm.

GPS Danger

GPS units and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.

Pinching danger

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Do not give to children

Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to intestinal necrosis. Keep away from children and animals.

Fire risk

Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.

Eye protection

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

Implant safety

Warning for patients: Powerful magnets affect electronics. Keep at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Allergic reactions

Some people suffer from a sensitization to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in skin redness. We suggest use protective gloves.

Demagnetization risk

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Important! Details about risks in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
