2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.24

The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. 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 40x7x3 / N38 features a low profile and industrial pulling force, making it an ideal solution for building separators and machines. This magnetic block with a force of 70.02 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 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. To separate the MPL 40x7x3 / 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. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 7.14 kg), they are ideal as hidden locks in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Customers often choose this model for hanging tools on strips and for advanced DIY and modeling projects, where precision and power count.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 40x7x3 / N38, we recommend utilizing two-component adhesives (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. For lighter applications or mounting on smooth surfaces, branded foam tape (e.g., 3M VHB) will work, provided the surface is perfectly degreased. 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 (40x7 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 40x7x3 mm, which, at a weight of 6.3 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. It is a magnetic block with dimensions 40x7x3 mm and a self-weight of 6.3 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

Apart from their consistent magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They have constant strength, and over around ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
  • They possess excellent resistance to magnetism drop when exposed to external fields,
  • Thanks to the elegant finish, the layer of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an elegant appearance,
  • They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, making them more effective,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are able to function (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Thanks to flexibility in forming and the ability to adapt to individual projects,
  • Versatile presence in innovative solutions – they serve a role in magnetic memories, motor assemblies, precision medical tools, also multitasking production systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • NdFeB magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of power (a factor is the shape as well as dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material stable to moisture, when using outdoors
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mount.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

Information about lifting capacity is the result of a measurement for the most favorable conditions, taking into account:
  • on a block made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
  • whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
  • with an ground touching surface
  • without any air gap between the magnet and steel
  • under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Please note that the application force may be lower depending on the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Distance (between the magnet and the metal), as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
  • Angle of force application – highest force is available only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Steel thickness – too thin sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
  • Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
  • Base smoothness – the more even the surface, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was assessed with the use of a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, however under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Eye protection

Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Power loss in heat

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Handling rules

Be careful. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and connect with huge force, often quicker than you can react.

Electronic hazard

Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.

Flammability

Mechanical processing of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Pacemakers

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

Metal Allergy

Certain individuals have a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching might lead to an allergic reaction. We recommend use safety gloves.

Compass and GPS

A powerful magnetic field negatively affects the operation of magnetometers in phones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to prevent breaking the sensors.

Danger to the youngest

Only for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing serious injuries. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.

Bodily injuries

Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can result in hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
