Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
Due to their power, flat magnets are commonly applied in structures that require exceptional adhesion.
Most common temperature resistance of these magnets is 80 °C, but depending on the dimensions, this value rises.
Additionally, flat magnets usually have special coatings applied to their surfaces, e.g. nickel, gold, or chrome, to increase their durability.
The magnet named MPL 50x20x20 / N38 i.e. a magnetic strength 49.94 kg weighing a mere 150.00 grams, making it the perfect choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets ensure a greater contact surface with other components, which can be beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: They are often utilized in different devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the thin and wide shape is important for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape makes mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets allows creators greater flexibility in placing them in devices, which can be more difficult with magnets of more complex shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can provide better stability, minimizing the risk of shifting or rotating. However, one should remember that the optimal shape of the magnet is dependent on the specific project and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, are a better choice.
Magnets have two poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are oppositely oriented. Similar poles, such as two north poles, act repelling on each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are commonly used in electrical devices, 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. Moreover, the strength of a magnet depends on its size and the materials used.
It’s worth noting that high temperatures can weaken the magnet's effect. Every magnetic material has its Curie point, meaning that under such conditions, the magnet stops being magnetic. Additionally, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, credit cards and even electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. For this reason, it is important to exercise caution when using magnets.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to immense strength, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose strength over time - after approximately 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are highly resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic field,
- Thanks to the shiny finish and nickel, gold, or silver coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
- They possess very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- Thanks to their high temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Thanks to the flexibility in shaping and the ability to adapt to specific requirements – neodymium magnets can be produced in many variants of shapes and sizes, which amplifies their universality in usage.
- Key role in modern technologies – are used in HDD drives, electric drive mechanisms, medical devices and very highly developed apparatuses.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, we recommend using magnets in a protective case. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts and at the same time increases its overall strength,
- They lose strength at high temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent loss of strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the shape and height). However, we also offer special magnets with high temperature resistance, up to 230°C,
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore, when using them outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic, or other moisture-resistant materials,
- The use of a cover - a magnetic holder is recommended due to the limited production capabilities of creating threads or complex shapes in the magnet
- Potential hazard associated with microscopic parts of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of children's health. Additionally, small elements of these devices are able to hinder the diagnostic process when they are in the body.
Handle Neodymium Magnets Carefully
Neodymium magnetic are especially fragile, resulting in damage.
Magnets made of neodymium are extremely delicate, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will break. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable 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 are the strongest, most remarkable magnets on the planet, and the surprising force between them can shock you at first.
To use magnets properly, it is best to familiarize yourself with our information beforehand. This will help you avoid significant harm to your body and the magnets themselves.
Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere 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.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Whilst Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures, it's important to note that the extent of this effect can vary based on factors such as the magnet's material, shape, and intended application.
Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.
Magnetic fields interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation for air and sea transport, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Magnetic 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. In addition, they can damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.
It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.
In the case of placing a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in such a case, a cut or a fracture may occur.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Keep neodymium magnets away from children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.
The magnet is coated with nickel. Therefore, exercise caution if you have an 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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
