Shopping tips

Flat neodymium magnets i.e. MPL 3x3x3 / N38 are magnets made from neodymium in a flat form. They are appreciated for their very strong magnetic properties, which are much stronger than traditional ferrite magnets.
Due to their strength, flat magnets are frequently used in products that need strong holding power.
Typical temperature resistance of flat magnets is 80°C, but with larger dimensions, this value can increase.
Additionally, flat magnets commonly have special coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their strength.
The magnet with the designation MPL 3x3x3 / N38 i.e. a magnetic force 0.71 kg weighing only 0.2 grams, making it the perfect choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Neodymium flat magnets offer a range of advantages compared to other magnet shapes, which cause them being the best choice for a multitude of projects:
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets guarantee a larger contact surface with other components, which is beneficial in applications requiring a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These magnets are often applied in various devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape makes mounting, particularly when there's a need to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets allows designers a lot of flexibility in arranging them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can provide better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. However, it's important to note that the optimal shape of the magnet depends on the specific application and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, such as cylindrical or spherical, may be more appropriate.
How do magnets work? Magnets attract objects made of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron elements, nickel, cobalt and special alloys of ferromagnetic metals. Moreover, magnets may weaker affect alloys containing iron, such as steel. It’s worth noting that magnets are utilized in various devices and technologies.
The operation of magnets is based on the properties of the magnetic field, which is generated by the movement of electric charges within their material. The magnetic field of magnets creates attractive interactions, which affect objects made of nickel or other ferromagnetic substances.

Magnets have two main poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are different. Similar poles, e.g. two north poles, act repelling on each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are commonly used in magnetic technologies, such as motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the highest power of attraction, making them perfect for applications requiring strong magnetic fields. Additionally, the strength of a magnet depends on its dimensions and the materials used.
Not all materials react to magnets, and examples of such substances are plastic, glass items, wood and precious stones. Additionally, magnets do not affect most metals, such as copper items, aluminum materials, copper, aluminum, and gold. Although these metals conduct electricity, do not exhibit ferromagnetic properties, meaning that they do not respond to a standard magnetic field, unless exposed to a very strong magnetic field.
It should be noted that high temperatures can weaken the magnet's effect. The Curie temperature is specific to each type of magnet, meaning that once this temperature is exceeded, the magnet stops being magnetic. Interestingly, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as navigational instruments, credit cards or medical equipment, like pacemakers. Therefore, it is important to avoid placing magnets near such devices.
A neodymium plate magnet of class N52 and N50 is a strong and powerful magnetic piece shaped like a plate, that offers strong holding power and versatile application. Competitive price, availability, stability and multi-functionality.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

  • They do not lose their even over nearly ten years – the decrease of power is only ~1% (according to tests),
  • Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is impressive,
  • The use of a mirror-like nickel surface provides a refined finish,
  • They possess significant magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
  • They are suitable for high-temperature applications, operating effectively at 230°C+ due to advanced heat resistance and form-specific properties,
  • The ability for precise shaping or customization to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which amplifies their functionality across industries,
  • Wide application in advanced technical fields – they are utilized in HDDs, electric drives, medical equipment and high-tech tools,
  • Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions

Disadvantages of magnetic elements:

  • They are fragile when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, it is suggested to place them in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage while also reinforces its overall robustness,
  • They lose strength at increased temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent reduction in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the dimensions and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
  • They rust in a humid environment, especially when used outside, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of non-metallic materials,
  • The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining multi-axis shapes in neodymium magnets is not feasible,
  • Health risk from tiny pieces may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is crucial in the family environments. Additionally, minuscule fragments from these products have the potential to disrupt scanning when ingested,
  • Due to a complex production process, their cost is relatively high,

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnetwhat affects it?

The given holding capacity of the magnet represents the highest holding force, calculated in ideal conditions, that is:

  • with mild steel, serving as a magnetic flux conductor
  • of a thickness of at least 10 mm
  • with a smooth surface
  • with no separation
  • with vertical force applied
  • at room temperature

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is conditioned by the following aspects, from crucial to less important:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
  • Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
  • Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
  • Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
  • Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
  • Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.

* Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.

Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets

Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets are a source of intense magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful if you have an allergy.

Studies show a small percentage of people have allergies to certain metals, including nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Comparing neodymium magnets to ferrite magnets (found in speakers), they are 10 times stronger, and their strength can shock you.

Make sure to review all the information we have provided. This will help you avoid harm to your body and damage to the magnets.

Neodymium magnets are primarily characterized by their significant internal force. They attract to each other, and any object that comes in their way will be affected.

In the case of holding a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in that situation, a cut or even a fracture may occur.

Neodymium magnets are particularly delicate, resulting in shattering.

Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will crack. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel surface, but they are not as hard as steel. In the event of a collision between two magnets, there may be a scattering of fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is crucial in such a situation.

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.

 Keep neodymium magnets far from youngest children.

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In the case of small magnets, they can be swallowed and cause choking. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.

Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.

Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.

Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
