Magnetic force drops drastically per each millimeter of gap. Keep in mind that every additional insulation layer (e.g., dirt, varnish, rust) noticeably diminishes the holding power. Neodymiums hold most effectively during direct contact; gap weakens the power. Observe how rapidly the parameters drop, when the product does not adhere directly to the steel surface. When designing the arrangement, eliminate unnecessary gaps.

The table below defines the theoretical shear load needed to initiate the downward movement of the magnet down along a vertical steel plate (assuming standard friction coefficient). The holding force is a function of the distance between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (shearing) - vertical pull
MPL 5x5x1.2 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.13 kg / 0.29 lbs 132.0 g / 1.3 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.09 kg / 0.19 lbs 88.0 g / 0.9 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.04 kg / 0.10 lbs 44.0 g / 0.4 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.22 kg / 0.49 lbs 220.0 g / 2.2 N

When mounting a magnet on a vertical plane (e.g., a fridge), it will only hold only approx. 1/5 of its nominal power. Gravity as well as a low friction coefficient mean that holders slide down easier than they detach. Designing a wall mount? Remember that the sliding force is significantly lower than the maximum static pull force. On a smooth steel, the element will slip down under a noticeably lighter weight. Application of an anti-slip coating can drastically improve the result.

12 mm	100%	0.44 kg / 0.97 lbs 440.0 g / 4.3 N

A thin sheet is incapable of take in the entire magnetic field, which weakens actual performance of the holder. Should you install a neodymium to a thin surface, the magnetism will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize the maximum of this magnet's potential, you need a suitably thick piece of steel. The saturation effect causes that on delicate walls (e.g., appliance housings), the product works worse. We advise picking the steel cross-section based on the following data.

Table 5: Working in heat (stability) - resistance threshold

40 °C	-2.2%	0.43 kg / 0.95 lbs 430.3 g / 4.2 N	OK

100 °C	-28.8%	0.31 kg / 0.69 lbs 313.3 g / 3.1 N

Standard neodymium magnets change their properties parameters after exceeding the maximum temperature. Avoid high temperatures – heat can irreversibly damage this magnet. With every degree above norm, the neodymium's force momentarily decreases. Avoid using this product close to ovens exceeding its working range. Ignoring the limit will result in irreversible degradation of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Heat tolerance depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (low Pc) are more susceptible to demagnetization at lower temperatures than taller cylinders. The danger warning in the table signals a risk of irreversible loss for this particular item.

Two strong neodymiums attract each other from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and sheet setup. The setup of two magnets generates a stronger field and a further horizon of performance. Designing a powerful holder? Use a pair of magnets instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Exercise caution that when connecting a pair of magnets, the collision energy is massive. The levitation is marginally weaker than the connection force, but still large.
*The magnetic induction for N-N configuration is approximately ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
* Estimates demonstrate friction force of a pair of identical neodymium magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Table 7: Hazards (implants) - precautionary measures
MPL 5x5x1.2 / N38

Object / Device	Limit (Gauss) / mT	Safe distance
Pacemaker	5 Gs (0.5 mT)	2.5 cm

Powerful magnet radiation is a large risk to electronics and pacemakers. These neodymiums generate a flux that disrupts operation of digital equipment. Notice: the invisible magnetic field acts through matter and plastic. Exceptional care must be exercised by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. The risk also applies to: automatic timepieces, car keys, speakers, and screens. Do not place the magnet near cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Dynamics (cracking risk) - warning

100 mm	142.63 km/h (39.62 m/s)	0.17 J

NdFeB products are delicate – a collision with steel risks their cracking. Control the attraction moment – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can cause material chips or injury to skin. Be sure to control the product during mounting so it doesn't slam with momentum against the steel surface. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h ends with a crack of the magnet. Use safety goggles when handling with powerful specimens.

Corrosion warning: Standard nickel requires drying after every contact with moisture; lack of maintenance will lead to rust spots.

In water, the magnet feels stronger thanks to Archimedes' principle. As a result, your magnet will pull a heavier object from the bottom than if you lifted it in the air.

1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only ~20% of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly weakens the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.30

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 P_c (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 P_c 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.

This product is an extremely strong magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 5x5x1.2 mm and a weight of 0.22 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. As a magnetic bar with high power (approx. 0.44 kg), this product is available immediately from our warehouse in Poland. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, giving it an aesthetic appearance.

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 0.44 kg can pinch very hard and cause hematomas. 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 generators and material handling systems. Thanks to the flat surface and high force (approx. 0.44 kg), they are ideal as hidden locks in furniture making and mounting elements in automation. Customers often choose this model for workshop organization on strips and for advanced DIY and modeling projects, where precision and power count.

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 roughen and wash the magnet surface before gluing, which significantly increases the adhesion of the glue to the nickel coating.

Standardly, the MPL 5x5x1.2 / N38 model is magnetized through the thickness (dimension 1.2 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 (5x5 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 5x5x1.2 mm, which, at a weight of 0.22 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 0.44 kg (force ~4.28 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high grade of the material. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their consistent power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:

They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
They maintain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
In other words, due to the glossy layer of gold, the element is aesthetically pleasing,
The surface of neodymium magnets generates a unique magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
Thanks to versatility in constructing and the ability to modify to individual projects,
Huge importance in high-tech industry – they serve a role in computer drives, electric motors, advanced medical instruments, and technologically advanced constructions.
Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Cons of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals

At strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
Neodymium magnets decrease their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore when using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mount.
Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these magnets are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what affects it?

The force parameter is a theoretical maximum value conducted under the following configuration:

using a plate made of mild steel, acting as a circuit closing element
possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
with a plane free of scratches
without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
at room temperature

Key elements affecting lifting force

Real force is influenced by working environment parameters, such as (from most important):

Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
Load vector – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is typically several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Steel thickness – too thin plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels reduce magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets

Powerful field

Handle magnets consciously. Their immense force can surprise even professionals. Plan your moves and respect their force.

Operating temperature

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

Dust is flammable

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Compass and GPS

GPS units and mobile phones are extremely sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.

Magnet fragility

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets leads to them shattering into small pieces.

Protect data

Data protection: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Do not give to children

These products are not toys. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a direct threat to life and necessitates immediate surgery.

Implant safety

Individuals with a heart stimulator should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the operation of the implant.

Warning for allergy sufferers

Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If redness appears, immediately stop handling magnets and use protective gear.

Pinching danger

Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances place your hand between two attracting surfaces.
