1. Vertical hold

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Power loss vs temp

*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.26

This simulation demonstrates the magnetic stability of the selected magnet under specific geometric conditions. 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.

Magnetic Induction

Other products

This product is an extremely strong magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 50x50x10 mm and a weight of 187.5 g, guarantees premium class connection. As a block magnet with high power (approx. 33.73 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland. The durable anti-corrosion layer ensures a long lifespan in a dry environment, protecting the core from oxidation.
Separating block magnets requires a technique based on sliding (moving one relative to the other), rather than forceful pulling apart. Watch your fingers! Magnets with a force of 33.73 kg can pinch very hard and cause hematomas. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.
Plate magnets MPL 50x50x10 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as filters catching filings and linear motors. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 33.73 kg), they are ideal as hidden locks in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. 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. For lighter applications or mounting on smooth surfaces, branded foam tape (e.g., 3M VHB) will work, provided the surface is perfectly degreased. Remember to clean and degrease the magnet surface before gluing, which significantly increases the adhesion of the glue to the nickel coating.
The magnetic axis runs through the shortest dimension, which is typical for gripper magnets. Thanks to this, it works best when "sticking" to sheet metal or another magnet with a large surface area. This is the most popular configuration for block magnets used in separators and holders.
This model is characterized by dimensions 50x50x10 mm, which, at a weight of 187.5 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 33.73 kg (force ~330.92 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high grade of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

Besides their immense field intensity, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • Their strength remains stable, and after around 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external fields,
  • In other words, due to the aesthetic surface of gold, the element gains visual value,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a intense magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of precise machining and adjusting to concrete applications,
  • Universal use in modern technologies – they are commonly used in HDD drives, electric motors, medical equipment, and multitasking production systems.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in small systems

Disadvantages

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • NdFeB magnets lose power 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
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore when using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic mechanism.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat affects it?

Magnet power was determined for the most favorable conditions, assuming:
  • using a base made of mild steel, functioning as a ideal flux conductor
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
  • for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • in neutral thermal conditions

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

During everyday use, the real power depends on many variables, presented from crucial:
  • Space between surfaces – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel type – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy steels lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Pacemakers

Individuals with a ICD must keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the functioning of the life-saving device.

No play value

NdFeB magnets are not toys. Eating several magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a direct threat to life and necessitates immediate surgery.

Crushing force

Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Magnet fragility

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are very brittle. Impact of two magnets leads to them breaking into shards.

Conscious usage

Use magnets consciously. Their huge power can surprise even professionals. Be vigilant and do not underestimate their power.

Compass and GPS

A strong magnetic field negatively affects the operation of compasses in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.

Mechanical processing

Dust generated during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Data carriers

Device Safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, timepieces).

Do not overheat magnets

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Allergic reactions

Certain individuals have a contact allergy to Ni, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling may cause skin redness. We recommend use protective gloves.

Attention! Details about hazards in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
