Shopping tips

Neodymium flat magnets i.e. MPL 40x40x15 / N38 are magnets created from neodymium in a flat form. They are appreciated for their extremely powerful magnetic properties, which are much stronger than traditional iron magnets.
Due to their strength, flat magnets are regularly used in devices that require strong holding power.
Most common temperature resistance of flat magnets is 80 °C, but with larger dimensions, this value rises.
Moreover, flat magnets commonly have different coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their strength.
The magnet labeled MPL 40x40x15 / N38 i.e. a magnetic force 47.38 kg weighing a mere 180 grams, making it the perfect choice for applications requiring a flat shape.
Neodymium flat magnets offer a range of advantages compared to other magnet shapes, which make them being a perfect solution 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: They are often used in many devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the flat shape is important for their operation.
Mounting: This form's flat shape makes it easier mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to another surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets allows creators greater flexibility in arranging them in devices, which can be more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can offer better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. It’s important to keep in mind 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.
Magnets attract ferromagnetic materials, such as iron elements, nickel, cobalt and alloys of metals with magnetic properties. Additionally, magnets may weaker affect alloys containing iron, such as steel. It’s worth noting that magnets are utilized in various devices and technologies.
Magnets work thanks to the properties of their magnetic field, which is generated by the movement of electric charges within their material. Magnetic fields of these objects creates attractive forces, which attract objects made of nickel or other magnetic materials.

Magnets have two main poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are oppositely oriented. Similar poles, such as two north poles, repel each other.
Due to these properties, magnets are often used in electrical devices, such as motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the greatest strength of attraction, making them indispensable for applications requiring powerful magnetic fields. Moreover, the strength of a magnet depends on its dimensions and the material it is made of.
Magnets do not attract plastic, glass, wooden materials or precious stones. Additionally, magnets do not affect certain metals, such as copper, aluminum, copper, aluminum, and gold. These metals, although they are conductors of 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 electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. Therefore, it is important to avoid placing magnets near such devices.
A neodymium magnet of class N50 and N52 is a strong and powerful metal object shaped like a plate, that provides high force and versatile application. Very good price, availability, durability and broad range of uses.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years, the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
  • They protect against demagnetization induced by ambient electromagnetic environments effectively,
  • Thanks to the glossy finish and silver coating, they have an elegant appearance,
  • They possess significant magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
  • These magnets tolerate high temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to build),
  • The ability for accurate shaping and adjustment to custom needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which extends the scope of their use cases,
  • Significant impact in modern technologies – they find application in computer drives, electric motors, healthcare devices along with high-tech tools,
  • Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling strength in compact dimensions, which allows for use in miniature devices

Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:

  • They are prone to breaking when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, we recommend in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks , and at the same time enhances its overall robustness,
  • They lose power at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent loss 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,
  • Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is recommended to use sealed magnets made of plastic for outdoor use,
  • The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining multi-axis shapes in neodymium magnets is risky,
  • Safety concern related to magnet particles may arise, in case of ingestion, which is notable in the health of young users. Furthermore, small elements from these devices have the potential to interfere with diagnostics once in the system,
  • In cases of mass production, neodymium magnet cost may not be economically viable,

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat it depends on?

The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, measured in the best circumstances, that is:

  • using a steel plate with low carbon content, acting as a magnetic circuit closure
  • of a thickness of at least 10 mm
  • with a refined outer layer
  • in conditions of no clearance
  • in a perpendicular direction of force
  • under standard ambient temperature

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is affected by the following aspects, in descending order of importance:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause 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.

* Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Moreover, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets

Magnets made of neodymium are incredibly fragile, they easily crack and can become damaged.

Neodymium magnets are characterized by significant fragility. 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.

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

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

Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.

Magnetic fields can interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in aviation and maritime navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices. There are neodymium magnets in every smartphone, for example, in the microphone and speakers.

  Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.

Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. 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.

Neodymium Magnets can attract to each other due to their immense internal force, causing the skin and other body parts to get pinched and resulting in significant injuries.

If joining of neodymium magnets is not controlled, at that time they may crumble and crack. Remember not to approach them to each other or have them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.

Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This is because many of these devices are equipped with a function that deactivates the device 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.

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

In certain circumstances, Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetism when subjected to high temperatures.

Avoid contact with neodymium magnets if you have a nickel allergy.

Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets ever invented. Their power can surprise 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.
