Flat neodymium magnets min. MPL 5x5x1.5 / N38 are magnets made from neodymium in a flat form. They are appreciated for their extremely powerful magnetic properties, which are much stronger than traditional ferrite magnets.
Thanks to their high strength, flat magnets are regularly applied in devices that need very strong attraction.
The standard temperature resistance of flat magnets is 80°C, but depending on the dimensions, this value can increase.
In addition, flat magnets usually have special coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, for enhancing their strength.
The magnet named MPL 5x5x1.5 / N38 i.e. a magnetic force 0.59 kg with a weight of a mere 0.28 grams, making it the perfect choice for applications requiring a flat shape.

Neodymium flat magnets present a range of advantages versus other magnet shapes, which cause them being the best choice for various uses:
Contact surface: Thanks to their flat shape, flat magnets guarantee a greater contact surface with other components, which is beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: They are often used in different devices, such as sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the flat shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: Their flat shape makes it easier mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets permits designers greater flexibility in arranging them in devices, which can be more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet may offer better stability, minimizing the risk of sliding or rotating. However, it's important to note that the optimal shape of the magnet depends on the specific project and requirements. In some cases, other shapes, such as cylindrical or spherical, are more appropriate.

Magnets attract objects made of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron elements, nickel, cobalt or special alloys of ferromagnetic metals. Moreover, magnets may lesser affect alloys containing iron, such as steel. Magnets are used in many fields.

The operation of magnets is based on the properties of their magnetic field, which arises from the ordered movement of electrons in their structure. Magnetic fields of these objects creates attractive forces, which affect objects made of cobalt or other ferromagnetic substances.

Magnets have two main poles: north (N) and south (S), which interact with each other when they are oppositely oriented. Poles of the same kind, such as two north poles, repel each other.
Due to these properties, 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 indispensable for applications requiring strong magnetic fields. Additionally, the strength of a magnet depends on its dimensions and the material it is made of.

Not all materials react to magnets, and examples of such substances are plastic, glass, wooden materials or most gemstones. Moreover, magnets do not affect certain metals, such as copper items, aluminum, items made of gold. These metals, although they are conductors of electricity, do not exhibit ferromagnetic properties, meaning that they do not respond to a standard magnetic field, unless they are subjected to an extremely strong magnetic field.
It should be noted that extremely high temperatures, above the Curie point, cause a loss of magnetic properties in the magnet. Every magnetic material has its Curie point, meaning that once this temperature is exceeded, the magnet stops being magnetic. Additionally, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, credit cards or electronic devices sensitive to magnetic fields. For this reason, it is important to avoid placing magnets near such devices.

A neodymium plate magnet of class N52 and N50 is a powerful and highly strong magnetic product in the form of a plate, featuring strong holding power and broad usability. Very good price, 24h delivery, resistance and versatility.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

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

They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years, the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
They remain magnetized despite exposure to magnetic surroundings,
Because of the reflective layer of silver, the component looks aesthetically refined,
They exhibit extremely high levels of magnetic induction near the outer area of the magnet,
With the right combination of compounds, they reach significant thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the design),
The ability for accurate shaping and adaptation to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which extends the scope of their use cases,
Important function in modern technologies – they are used in computer drives, electromechanical systems, diagnostic apparatus or even technologically developed systems,
Compactness – despite their small size, they provide high effectiveness, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

They are fragile when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, we recommend in a steel housing. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks while also strengthens its overall robustness,
High temperatures may significantly reduce the field efficiency of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent loss in performance (depending on shape). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is recommended to use sealed magnets made of protective material for outdoor use,
Limited ability to create threads in the magnet – the use of a magnetic holder is recommended,
Possible threat related to magnet particles may arise, especially if swallowed, which is crucial in the family environments. Moreover, minuscule fragments from these devices have the potential to disrupt scanning once in the system,
Due to a complex production process, their cost is above average,

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

The given strength of the magnet represents the optimal strength, determined in ideal conditions, specifically:

with the use of low-carbon steel plate serving as a magnetic yoke
having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
with a smooth surface
in conditions of no clearance
with vertical force applied
in normal thermal conditions

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

Practical lifting force is dependent on factors, listed from the most critical to the less significant:

Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.

* Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets

Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.

If have a finger between or alternatively on the path of attracting magnets, there may be a serious cut or even a fracture.

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

Whilst Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetic properties 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.

Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This is because many of these devices are equipped with a function that deactivates the device in a magnetic field.

Magnets made of neodymium are extremely fragile, they easily fall apart as well as can crumble.

Neodymium magnets are characterized by significant fragility. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel surface, but they are not as hard 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.

Make sure not to bring neodymium magnets close to the TV, wallet, and computer HDD.

Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.

It is important to keep neodymium magnets out of reach from children.

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In the case of small magnets, they can be swallowed and cause choking. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.

Neodymium magnets are among the most powerful magnets on Earth. The astonishing force they generate between each other can surprise you.

Please review the information on how to handle neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body, as well as prevent unintentional damage to the magnets.

Exercise caution!
