1. Vertical hold

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly limits the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

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

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.

Pulling force

Magnetic Induction

View also products

Model MPL 25x12.5x5 / N38 features a flat shape and professional pulling force, making it an ideal solution for building separators and machines. As a magnetic bar with high power (approx. 7.72 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, giving it an aesthetic appearance.
Separating block magnets requires a technique based on sliding (moving one relative to the other), rather than forceful pulling apart. To separate the MPL 25x12.5x5 / N38 model, firmly slide one magnet over the edge of the other until the attraction force decreases. We recommend extreme caution, because after separation, the magnets may want to violently snap back together, which threatens pinching the skin. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.
They constitute a key element in the production of wind generators and material handling systems. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 7.72 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 25x12.5x5 / N38, it is best to use strong epoxy glues (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. Double-sided tape cushions vibrations, which is an advantage when mounting in moving elements. 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.
This model is characterized by dimensions 25x12.5x5 mm, which, at a weight of 11.72 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 7.72 kg (force ~75.74 N), which, with such a compact shape, proves the high grade of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
  • Neodymium magnets remain extremely resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external field sources,
  • By using a reflective coating of gold, the element gains an proper look,
  • Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of precise machining and adapting to individual needs,
  • Fundamental importance in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in computer drives, electric motors, diagnostic systems, as well as industrial machines.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices

Cons

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.
  • They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength 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
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
  • Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complex forms - recommended is a housing - mounting mechanism.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is higher than average,

Pull force analysis

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

The specified lifting capacity refers to the limit force, obtained under laboratory conditions, meaning:
  • using a sheet made of mild steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
  • possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an ground touching surface
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • during pulling in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • at ambient temperature room level

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

Real force is affected by working environment parameters, mainly (from most important):
  • Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
  • Load vector – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is typically several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
  • Smoothness – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was determined by applying a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
GPS and phone interference

GPS units and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Product not for children

Absolutely store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.

Allergy Warning

Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.

Permanent damage

Control the heat. Exposing the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its properties and pulling force.

Medical interference

Individuals with a pacemaker must keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the implant.

Protect data

Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Handling rules

Handle magnets with awareness. Their immense force can surprise even experienced users. Be vigilant and respect their power.

Bone fractures

Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!

Mechanical processing

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

Material brittleness

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Warning! Details about risks in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
