1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Thermal stability

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.26

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.

Component MPL 40x10x4 / N38 features a low profile and professional pulling force, making it an ideal solution for building separators and machines. This rectangular block with a force of 91.33 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 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 40x10x4 / 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. Never use metal tools for prying, as the brittle NdFeB material may chip and damage your eyes.
They constitute a key element in the production of wind generators and material handling systems. 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. Remember to clean and degrease the magnet surface before gluing, which significantly increases the adhesion of the glue to the nickel coating.
Standardly, the MPL 40x10x4 / N38 model is magnetized through the thickness (dimension 4 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 (40x10 mm), which is ideal for flat mounting. This is the most popular configuration for block magnets used in separators and holders.
This model is characterized by dimensions 40x10x4 mm, which, at a weight of 12 g, makes it an element with high energy density. It is a magnetic block with dimensions 40x10x4 mm and a self-weight of 12 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

Besides their exceptional pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They retain full power for around 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (according to analyses),
  • They maintain their magnetic properties even under close interference source,
  • By covering with a lustrous layer of silver, the element gains an professional look,
  • They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for action at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to versatility in forming and the capacity to modify to complex applications,
  • Versatile presence in future technologies – they are used in mass storage devices, brushless drives, medical devices, and modern systems.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. 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
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we advise using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is casing - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat contributes to it?

Information about lifting capacity was determined for optimal configuration, taking into account:
  • using a base made of low-carbon steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
  • with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
  • with a surface free of scratches
  • without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • under vertical force direction (90-degree angle)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

Effective lifting capacity impacted by working environment parameters, mainly (from most important):
  • Clearance – existence of foreign body (paint, tape, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Base massiveness – insufficiently thick sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be wasted to the other side.
  • Material type – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Stainless steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.

Warnings
Danger to pacemakers

For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields affect medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Keep away from electronics

Note: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your phone, tablet, and GPS.

Do not overheat magnets

Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you require operation above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Magnet fragility

Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

Pinching danger

Protect your hands. Two large magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Skin irritation risks

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid touching magnets with bare hands and choose encased magnets.

Cards and drives

Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Do not underestimate power

Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even professionals. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.

Dust is flammable

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.

Choking Hazard

Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from kids and pets.
