1. Wall mount (shear)

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains merely a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Heat tolerance

*For standard magnets, the safety limit is 80°C.

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.40

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 50x25x12 / N38 features a flat shape and industrial pulling force, making it an ideal solution for building separators and machines. This rectangular block with a force of 364.18 N is ready for shipment in 24h, allowing for rapid realization of your project. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, giving it an aesthetic appearance.
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 50x25x12 / N38 model, firmly slide one magnet over the edge of the other until the attraction force decreases. We recommend care, because after separation, the magnets may want to violently snap back together, which threatens pinching the skin. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.
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 50x25x12 / N38 model is magnetized axially (dimension 12 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 (50x25 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.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 50 mm (length), 25 mm (width), and 12 mm (thickness). It is a magnetic block with dimensions 50x25x12 mm and a self-weight of 112.5 g, ready to work at temperatures up to 80°C. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (based on calculations),
  • They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by external field influence,
  • By using a shiny layer of silver, the element acquires an nice look,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a maximum magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for action at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to freedom in forming and the ability to customize to unusual requirements,
  • Fundamental importance in advanced technology sectors – they serve a role in HDD drives, electric drive systems, medical equipment, and complex engineering applications.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which allows their use in small systems

Cons

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, when using outdoors
  • Due to limitations in creating threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mount.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Lifting parameters

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat affects it?

The specified lifting capacity concerns the maximum value, obtained under optimal environment, specifically:
  • on a block made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • with direct contact (no paint)
  • during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
  • in neutral thermal conditions

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

Please note that the magnet holding may be lower subject to elements below, starting with the most relevant:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
  • Direction of force – maximum parameter is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Steel thickness – insufficiently thick sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be escaped to the other side.
  • Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. High carbon content worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Surface finish – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture create air cushions, reducing force.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Operating temperature

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its properties and strength.

Bone fractures

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.

Mechanical processing

Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.

Beware of splinters

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Safe operation

Handle magnets consciously. Their immense force can surprise even experienced users. Stay alert and respect their force.

Medical implants

For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt electronics. Keep at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Phone sensors

An intense magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Keep magnets near a device to prevent damaging the sensors.

Electronic hazard

Very strong magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Stay away of min. 10 cm.

Sensitization to coating

Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction appears, cease handling magnets and wear gloves.

Do not give to children

Strictly keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.
