Pulling power decreases significantly with every subsequent millimeter of gap. Remember that even the smallest gap (e.g., dirt, paint, dust) strongly reduces the pull force. Neodymiums work most effectively at the point of direct contact; gap nullifies the force. See how rapidly the load capacity drop, when the magnet does not adhere flatly to the metal substrate. When designing the arrangement, discard additional spacers.

The following data calculates the theoretical force required to cause the slippage of the magnet vertically on a vertical steel plate (assuming standard friction). This value depends on the distance between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (shearing) - vertical pull
MPL 3x3x3 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.10 kg / 0.22 pounds 102.0 g / 1.0 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.07 kg / 0.15 pounds 68.0 g / 0.7 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.03 kg / 0.07 pounds 34.0 g / 0.3 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.17 kg / 0.37 pounds 170.0 g / 1.7 N

When placing a element on a vertical wall (e.g., a board), it will maintain barely approx. 1/5 of nominal attraction strength. Gravitational force and a weak degree of grip mean that magnets slide down easier than they pop off the substrate. Planning a vertical fastening? Consider that the sliding force is much weaker than the maximum static pull force. On a slippery surface, the magnet will slide down under a much lighter cargo. Utilizing a rubberized coating can drastically raise the stability.

12 mm	100%	0.34 kg / 0.75 pounds 340.0 g / 3.3 N

A too thin steel is incapable of take in the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the holder. Should you install a neodymium to a too thin substrate, the magnetism will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize 100% of this magnet's potential, you require a sufficiently solid backing of metal. The saturation phenomenon causes that on delicate walls (e.g., car bodies), the product holds weaker. We advise picking the steel thickness according to the table below.

Table 5: Working in heat (material behavior) - power drop
MPL 3x3x3 / N38

40 °C	-2.2%	0.33 kg / 0.73 pounds 332.5 g / 3.3 N	OK
60 °C	-4.4%	0.33 kg / 0.72 pounds 325.0 g / 3.2 N	OK

100 °C	-28.8%	0.24 kg / 0.53 pounds 242.1 g / 2.4 N

Classic neodymiums irreversibly lose power past the thermal threshold. Watch out for overheating – heat can irreversibly destroy this product. With every degree above norm, the magnet's power briefly lowers. Avoid using this magnet close to ovens exceeding its operating temperature limit. Too high temperature will result in permanent loss of magnetic properties.

*Engineering note: Temperature resistance depends not only on the material grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Thin magnets (pancake types) are more susceptible to demagnetization at lower temperatures than long magnets. Warning indicator in the table points to a risk of irreversible loss for this particular item.

Two strong neodymiums interact from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and sheet combination. The setup of magnet-to-magnet produces a massive flux and a wider radius of action. Want to build a solid fastener? Apply two magnets instead of one magnet and a steel. Be careful that when connecting a pair of magnets, the collision energy is massive. The levitation is slightly lower than the connection force, but still significant.
*The magnetic induction in repulsion mode is approximately ~0 Gs in the exact middle between the magnets (resulting from vector opposition).
Important: Estimates apply to shear force of dual identical magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a serious hazard to IT equipment and pacemakers. These NdFeB products generate a flux that destroys function of sensitive medical devices. Notice: the invisible magnetic field acts through matter and glass. Increased vigilance must be exercised by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: mechanical watches, remotes, speakers, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or sensitive navigation tools.

Magnetic elements are prone to chipping – a strong collision with metal causes immediate chipping. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose turns into a projectile. Striking energy can cause material chips or dangerous crushing to fingers. Hold the magnet firmly during installation so it doesn't slam with momentum against the metal. A collision at high speed ends with a crack of the neodymium. Wear safety glasses when handling with powerful specimens.

Rust risk: Remember to wipe the magnet thoroughly after removing it from water and apply a protective layer (e.g., oil) to avoid corrosion.

Water displaces steel, making heavy objects slightly lighter. Note: for permanent underwater work, we recommend magnets with an anti-corrosive (epoxy) coating.

1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its max power.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.84

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 P_c (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 P_c 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 magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 3x3x3 mm and a weight of 0.2 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. This magnetic block with a force of 3.37 N is ready for shipment in 24h, allowing for rapid realization of your project. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, giving it an aesthetic appearance.

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 0.34 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.

Plate magnets MPL 3x3x3 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as filters catching filings and linear motors. They work great as invisible mounts 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. Avoid chemically aggressive glues or hot glue, which can demagnetize neodymium (above 80°C).

The magnetic axis runs through the shortest dimension, which is typical for gripper magnets. In practice, this means that this magnet has the greatest attraction force on its main planes (3x3 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.

This model is characterized by dimensions 3x3x3 mm, which, at a weight of 0.2 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 0.34 kg (force ~3.37 N), which, with such a compact shape, proves the high power of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Strengths

Besides their tremendous pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

They do not lose strength, even during approximately 10 years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
They maintain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
In other words, due to the metallic surface of nickel, the element looks attractive,
Magnets have impressive magnetic induction on the surface,
Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
Thanks to freedom in designing and the ability to modify to individual projects,
Key role in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, brushless drives, diagnostic systems, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Weaknesses

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals

At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
Due to limitations in creating threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mechanism.
Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these products are able to complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Pull force analysis

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The declared magnet strength refers to the limit force, obtained under optimal environment, specifically:

with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
with a thickness of at least 10 mm
with an ground contact surface
under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
at conditions approx. 20°C

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

Real force impacted by working environment parameters, mainly (from most important):

Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Base massiveness – too thin plate causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be wasted into the air.
Plate material – mild steel attracts best. Higher carbon content lower magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets

Life threat

Medical warning: Neodymium magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Data carriers

Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

Phone sensors

Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Keep a separation from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.

Serious injuries

Risk of injury: The attraction force is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Danger to the youngest

Neodymium magnets are not intended for children. Eating multiple magnets may result in them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a direct threat to life and necessitates immediate surgery.

Allergy Warning

Some people have a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Extended handling might lead to skin redness. We recommend wear protective gloves.

Operating temperature

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Dust is flammable

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Safe operation

Handle with care. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can react.

Material brittleness

Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

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