Pulling power drops drastically with every subsequent millimeter of distance. Keep in mind that even a very thin break (e.g., dirt, paint, veneer) noticeably diminishes the holding power. Neodymiums work most effectively during direct contact; gap nullifies the power. Analyze how quickly the load capacity plummet, when the magnet does not touch flatly to the steel surface. When calculating the arrangement, avoid additional spacers.

The table below presents the estimated force necessary to cause the shifting of the magnet down on a upright steel plate (assuming standard friction). This value is relative to the air gap between the magnet and the surface.

Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.09 kg / 0.19 pounds 88.0 g / 0.9 N

When placing a holder on a vertical surface (e.g., a car body), it you can count on barely approx. 1/5 of its maximum pull force. Gravitational force as well as a weak degree of grip cause that products slide down faster than they pop off the substrate. Designing a hanger? Remember that the sliding force is much weaker than the maximum static pull force. On a slippery surface, the element will give way down under a much lighter cargo. Using a rubber pad can drastically raise the stability.

A thin metal plate cannot take in the full magnetic flux, which wastes potential of the holder. Should you attach a powerful product to a too thin substrate, the field will penetrate right through and the holding will be smaller. To squeeze 100% of this neodymium's power, you need a suitably thick backing of metal. The material oversaturation means that on delicate walls (e.g., car bodies), the holder holds weaker. We suggest choosing the steel dimension according to the table below.

Classic neodymiums lose power above the temperature limit. Protect against heat – high temperature can permanently damage this product. With every degree above norm, the magnet's force momentarily lowers. Avoid using this product in hot environments exceeding its operating temperature limit. Exceeding the critical threshold will lead to destruction of magnetic properties.

*Engineering note: Heat tolerance is determined by both grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (low permeance coefficient) risk losing magnetic properties sooner compared to rod magnets. Warning indicator in the table signals permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two magnets interact from a significantly greater distance than a neodymium and metal setup. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet produces a massive flux and a larger range of performance. Want to build a powerful holder? Utilize two neodymiums instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Be careful that when attracting two neodymiums, the pinch force is extreme. The repulsion force is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still impressive.
*The magnetic induction for N-N configuration reaches ~0 Gs at the midpoint between the magnets (due to field cancellation).
* Results show friction force of dual identical neodymium magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Extremely neodym field is a serious hazard to electronics as well as medical implants. These magnets produce a flux that destroys function of sensitive medical devices. Be aware: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and plastic. Exceptional care must be exercised by people with cochlear implants and drug dispensers. The risk also applies to: automatic timepieces, car keys, speakers, and displays. Do not place the magnet near cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are prone to chipping – a collision with steel can result in shattering. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose becomes dangerous. Kinetic force can destroy the magnet or painful pinches to fingers. Always hold the magnet during installation so it doesn't hit violently against the metal. A collision at high speed means shattering of the neodymium. Wear eye protection when working with powerful specimens.

Water displaces steel, making heavy objects slightly lighter. Note: for permanent underwater work, we recommend magnets with an anti-corrosive (epoxy) coating.

1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Power loss vs temp

*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

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 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.

Component MPL 5x5x1.2 / N38 features a low profile and industrial pulling force, making it a perfect solution for building separators and machines. As a block magnet with high power (approx. 0.44 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland. 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 5x5x1.2 / 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.

Plate magnets MPL 5x5x1.2 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as magnetic separators and linear motors. They work great as fasteners under tiles, wood, or glass. Customers often choose this model for hanging tools 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. Avoid chemically aggressive glues or hot glue, which can demagnetize neodymium (above 80°C).

Standardly, the MPL 5x5x1.2 / N38 model is magnetized axially (dimension 1.2 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on its largest, flat surfaces. 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.

The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: 5 mm (length), 5 mm (width), and 1.2 mm (thickness). The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 0.44 kg (force ~4.28 N), which, with such a flat shape, proves the high power of the material. The protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

Their magnetic field is durable, and after around 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
Magnets effectively protect themselves against demagnetization caused by external fields,
Thanks to the shimmering finish, the coating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver gives an visually attractive appearance,
Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which allows for strong attraction,
Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
Thanks to versatility in forming and the capacity to customize to complex applications,
Fundamental importance in advanced technology sectors – they are used in magnetic memories, motor assemblies, medical devices, as well as complex engineering applications.
Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
Neodymium magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop 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 recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
Due to limitations in producing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mechanism.
Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small elements of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?

Breakaway force is the result of a measurement for ideal contact conditions, including:

on a block made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
characterized by even structure
without any clearance between the magnet and steel
during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
at room temperature

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

It is worth knowing that the working load may be lower influenced by elements below, in order of importance:

Gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
Base massiveness – insufficiently thick sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the flux to be wasted into the air.
Plate material – mild steel attracts best. Alloy steels lower magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets

Keep away from computers

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Machining danger

Powder created during grinding of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Caution required

Handle magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their force.

Do not give to children

Only for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, causing severe trauma. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.

Medical implants

Medical warning: Strong magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Shattering risk

Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

GPS and phone interference

Remember: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts precision electronics. Keep a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and GPS.

Bodily injuries

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing everything in their path. Be careful!

Demagnetization risk

Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Avoid contact if allergic

Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and select versions in plastic housing.
