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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.35

This simulation demonstrates the magnetic stability of the selected magnet under specific geometric conditions. 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.

Other products

Component MPL 25x12.5x5 / N38 features a low profile and industrial pulling force, making it a perfect solution for building separators and machines. This rectangular block with a force of 75.74 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.
The key to success is sliding 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 7.72 kg can pinch very hard and cause hematomas. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.
They constitute a key element in the production of generators and material handling systems. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 7.72 kg), they are ideal as closers in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Their rectangular shape facilitates precise gluing into milled sockets in wood or plastic.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 25x12.5x5 / 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 25x12.5x5 / N38 model is magnetized axially (dimension 5 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on its largest, flat surfaces. In practice, this means that this magnet has the greatest attraction force on its main planes (25x12.5 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.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 25 mm (length), 12.5 mm (width), and 5 mm (thickness). The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 7.72 kg (force ~75.74 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high power of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.

Pros

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They have constant strength, and over around 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
  • They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external magnetic sources,
  • Thanks to the shiny finish, the surface of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver gives an visually attractive appearance,
  • Magnets possess maximum magnetic induction on the active area,
  • 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 modularity in constructing and the capacity to adapt to unusual requirements,
  • Huge importance in electronics industry – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, medical devices, as well as industrial machines.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • NdFeB magnets lose strength when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (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
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited ability of creating threads in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is a housing - magnet mounting.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?

Information about lifting capacity was determined for the most favorable conditions, taking into account:
  • using a plate made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a circuit closing element
  • with a thickness minimum 10 mm
  • with an polished contact surface
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
  • for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

Bear in mind that the application force may be lower depending on the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), because even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
  • Angle of force application – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the plate is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Steel thickness – insufficiently thick steel causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be wasted into the air.
  • Metal type – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Surface finish – ideal contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined by applying a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Heat warning

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Physical harm

Large magnets can break fingers instantly. Under no circumstances place your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.

Phone sensors

Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Maintain a separation from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.

Dust is flammable

Fire warning: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.

Nickel coating and allergies

Certain individuals experience a contact allergy to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Extended handling might lead to an allergic reaction. We strongly advise wear safety gloves.

Danger to the youngest

Product intended for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing intestinal necrosis. Store out of reach of children and animals.

Eye protection

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Impact of two magnets leads to them shattering into small pieces.

ICD Warning

For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields affect medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Data carriers

Data protection: Neodymium magnets can ruin payment cards and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, timepieces).

Safe operation

Be careful. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and connect with huge force, often quicker than you can react.
