Shopping tips

Flat neodymium magnets i.e. MPL 40x5x3 / N38 are magnets created from neodymium in a rectangular form. They are valued for their extremely powerful magnetic properties, which surpass standard ferrite magnets.
Due to their strength, flat magnets are regularly used in devices that need exceptional adhesion.
Most common temperature resistance of flat magnets is 80 °C, but with larger dimensions, this value grows.
Additionally, flat magnets usually have different coatings applied to their surfaces, e.g. nickel, gold, or chrome, to improve their durability.
The magnet named MPL 40x5x3 / N38 i.e. a magnetic strength 3.35 kg which weighs only 4.5 grams, making it the excellent choice for applications requiring a flat shape.
Neodymium flat magnets offer a range of advantages compared to other magnet shapes, which lead to them being an ideal choice for a multitude of projects:
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets guarantee a larger contact surface with adjacent parts, which can be beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: These are often utilized in many devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is necessary for their operation.
Mounting: This form's flat shape simplifies mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets gives the possibility designers greater flexibility in arranging them in structures, which is more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In certain applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can offer better stability, minimizing the risk of shifting or rotating. However, it's important to note that the optimal shape of the magnet is dependent on the specific project and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, such as cylindrical or spherical, are a better choice.
How do magnets work? Magnets attract objects made of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron elements, nickel, materials with cobalt and alloys of metals with magnetic properties. Moreover, magnets may lesser affect some other metals, such as steel. Magnets are used in many fields.
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 forces, which affect materials containing cobalt or other ferromagnetic substances.

Magnets have two poles: north (N) and south (S), which attract each other when they are different. Similar poles, e.g. two north poles, repel each other.
Due to these properties, magnets are regularly used in magnetic technologies, such as motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the highest power of attraction, making them indispensable for applications requiring strong magnetic fields. Additionally, the strength of a magnet depends on its dimensions and the material it is made of.
Magnets do not attract plastics, glass items, wood or most gemstones. Additionally, magnets do not affect certain metals, such as copper, 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 they are subjected to an extremely strong magnetic field.
It should be noted that extremely high temperatures, above the Curie point, cause a loss of magnetic properties in the magnet. The Curie temperature is specific to each type of magnet, meaning that under such conditions, the magnet stops being magnetic. Interestingly, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, magnetic stripe cards or medical equipment, like pacemakers. For this reason, it is important to avoid placing magnets near such devices.
A neodymium magnet with classification N50 and N52 is a strong and extremely powerful magnetic piece in the form of a plate, providing high force and universal applicability. Very good price, availability, ruggedness and universal usability.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

  • They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over around ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • They protect against demagnetization induced by ambient electromagnetic environments effectively,
  • Because of the brilliant layer of gold, the component looks visually appealing,
  • Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is very strong,
  • Neodymium magnets are known for very high magnetic induction and the ability to work at temperatures up to 230°C or higher (depending on the shape),
  • The ability for precise shaping or adjustment to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which amplifies their functionality across industries,
  • Wide application in advanced technical fields – they find application in HDDs, rotating machines, medical equipment or even sophisticated instruments,
  • Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

  • They can break when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, it is advisable to use in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from fracture while also strengthens its overall strength,
  • High temperatures may significantly reduce the magnetic power of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent loss in performance (depending on form). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
  • They rust in a wet environment, especially when used outside, we recommend using sealed magnets, such as those made of polymer,
  • Limited ability to create precision features in the magnet – the use of a mechanical support is recommended,
  • Health risk due to small fragments may arise, especially if swallowed, which is notable in the protection of children. It should also be noted that small elements from these devices have the potential to complicate medical imaging once in the system,
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their cost is considerably higher,

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat it depends on?

The given strength of the magnet corresponds to the optimal strength, calculated under optimal conditions, that is:

  • with the use of low-carbon steel plate serving as a magnetic yoke
  • having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
  • with a refined outer layer
  • in conditions of no clearance
  • in a perpendicular direction of force
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is affected by these factors, from crucial to less important:

  • 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 carried out on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a slight gap {between} the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Caution with Neodymium Magnets

Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever created, and their power 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.

Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.

In the case of neodymium magnets, there is a strong magnetic field. As a result, it interferes with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.

Make sure not to bring neodymium magnets close to the 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. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

Even though magnets have been observed to maintain their efficacy up to temperatures of 80°C or 175°F, it's essential to consider that this threshold may fluctuate depending on the magnet's type, configuration, and intended usage.

 It is important to maintain neodymium magnets out of reach from children.

Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Do not allow children to play with them. Small magnets can pose a serious choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing significant injuries, and even death.

Magnets made of neodymium are known for being fragile, which can cause them to crumble.

Neodymium magnetic are fragile as well as will shatter if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. They are coated with a shiny nickel plating similar to steel, but they are not as hard. In the case of a collision between two magnets, there can be a scattering of small sharp metal fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is essential.

The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel 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.

Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.

Magnets attract each other within a distance of several to around 10 cm from each other. Don't put your fingers in the path of magnet attraction, because a major injury may occur. Magnets, depending on their size, are able even cut off a finger or alternatively there can be a significant pressure or even a fracture.

Never bring neodymium magnets close to a phone and GPS.

Neodymium magnets produce intense magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

Warning!
