1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Heat tolerance

*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) = 0.51

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.

Field Strength

View more offers

This product is an extremely strong magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 30x10x8 mm and a weight of 18 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. As a magnetic bar with high power (approx. 12.13 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. To separate the MPL 30x10x8 / 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. 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. They work great as fasteners under tiles, wood, or glass. Their rectangular shape facilitates precise gluing into milled sockets in wood or plastic.
Cyanoacrylate glues (super glue type) are good only for small magnets; for larger plates, we recommend resins. 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. Such a pole arrangement ensures maximum holding capacity when pressing against the sheet, creating a closed magnetic circuit.
This model is characterized by dimensions 30x10x8 mm, which, at a weight of 18 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. It is a magnetic block with dimensions 30x10x8 mm and a self-weight of 18 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Pros as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Strengths

Apart from their notable magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They have constant strength, and over more than 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • They have excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties due to external fields,
  • By covering with a shiny layer of gold, the element presents an elegant look,
  • Magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet is maximum,
  • Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to versatility in designing and the ability to adapt to unusual requirements,
  • Fundamental importance in high-tech industry – they find application in HDD drives, motor assemblies, diagnostic systems, also modern systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • We recommend cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex forms.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small components of these magnets can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Pull force analysis

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what affects it?

Magnet power is the result of a measurement for the most favorable conditions, including:
  • with the use of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
  • with a surface cleaned and smooth
  • without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • during pulling in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

Holding efficiency is influenced by specific conditions, such as (from most important):
  • Gap between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) significantly weakens the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
  • Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
  • Thermal factor – high temperature weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Adults only

Adult use only. Small elements can be swallowed, causing intestinal necrosis. Store out of reach of kids and pets.

Handling rules

Handle magnets consciously. Their immense force can surprise even experienced users. Stay alert and do not underestimate their power.

Fire risk

Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Risk of cracking

Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are very brittle. Collision of two magnets will cause them shattering into small pieces.

Life threat

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

Skin irritation risks

Allergy Notice: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, cease handling magnets and wear gloves.

Serious injuries

Big blocks can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Never put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Electronic devices

Avoid bringing magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.

Phone sensors

Note: neodymium magnets produce a field that interferes with precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.

Demagnetization risk

Control the heat. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its properties and strength.
