Shopping tips

Flat neodymium magnets min. MPL 5x5x1.5 / N38 are magnets created from neodymium in a rectangular form. They are appreciated for their extremely powerful magnetic properties, which surpass traditional ferrite magnets.
Due to their power, flat magnets are regularly used in products that need very strong attraction.
Typical temperature resistance of these magnets is 80 °C, but depending on the dimensions, this value grows.
In addition, flat magnets usually have special coatings applied to their surfaces, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, to improve their corrosion resistance.
The magnet labeled MPL 5x5x1.5 / N38 i.e. a magnetic force 0.59 kg weighing just 0.28 grams, making it the perfect choice for projects needing a flat magnet.
Neodymium flat magnets present a range of advantages compared to other magnet shapes, which lead to them being an ideal choice for a multitude of projects:
Contact surface: Due to their flat shape, flat magnets ensure a greater contact surface with adjacent parts, which is beneficial in applications needing a stronger magnetic connection.
Technology applications: They are often applied in various devices, e.g. sensors, stepper motors, or speakers, where the flat shape is crucial for their operation.
Mounting: The flat form's flat shape simplifies mounting, particularly when it is necessary to attach the magnet to some surface.
Design flexibility: The flat shape of the magnets permits creators greater flexibility in placing them in devices, which is more difficult with magnets of other shapes.
Stability: In some applications, the flat base of the flat magnet can offer better stability, minimizing the risk of shifting or rotating. However, it's important to note that the optimal shape of the magnet depends on the specific application and requirements. In certain cases, other shapes, like cylindrical or spherical, are a better choice.
How do magnets work? Magnets attract objects made of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, objects containing nickel, cobalt and special alloys of ferromagnetic metals. Moreover, magnets may weaker affect some other metals, such as steel. It’s worth noting that magnets are utilized in various devices and technologies.
Magnets work thanks to the properties of their magnetic field, which arises from the ordered movement of electrons in their structure. Magnetic fields of magnets creates attractive interactions, which attract materials containing cobalt or other ferromagnetic substances.

Magnets have two poles: north (N) and south (S), which attract each other when they are different. Poles of the same kind, e.g. two north poles, act repelling on each other.
Thanks to this principle of operation, magnets are often used in electrical devices, e.g. motors, speakers, sensors, or magnetic locks. Neodymium magnets stand out with the highest power of attraction, making them ideal for applications requiring strong magnetic fields. Moreover, the strength of a magnet depends on its size and the materials used.
Magnets do not attract plastics, glass items, wood and precious stones. Additionally, magnets do not affect certain metals, such as copper items, aluminum, gold. Although these metals conduct electricity, do not exhibit ferromagnetic properties, meaning that they remain unaffected by a magnet, unless exposed to a very strong magnetic field.
It should be noted that extremely high temperatures, above the Curie point, cause a loss of magnetic properties in the magnet. The Curie temperature is specific to each type of magnet, meaning that once this temperature is exceeded, the magnet stops being magnetic. Interestingly, strong magnets can interfere with the operation of devices, such as compasses, credit cards and even medical equipment, like pacemakers. For this reason, it is important to exercise caution when using magnets.
A neodymium magnet N50 and N52 is a strong and extremely powerful magnetic piece shaped like a plate, featuring strong holding power and universal applicability. Good price, 24h delivery, ruggedness and universal usability.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their pulling strength, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

  • Their power is maintained, and after approximately 10 years, it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They remain magnetized despite exposure to magnetic noise,
  • The use of a decorative gold surface provides a eye-catching finish,
  • Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is impressively powerful,
  • Thanks to their high temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C or more,
  • With the option for tailored forming and personalized design, these magnets can be produced in multiple shapes and sizes, greatly improving engineering flexibility,
  • Important function in cutting-edge sectors – they are utilized in HDDs, rotating machines, healthcare devices and sophisticated instruments,
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, in miniature format,

Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:

  • They are prone to breaking when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, it is suggested to place them in a steel housing. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage and strengthens its overall durability,
  • High temperatures may significantly reduce the strength of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent decline 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,
  • They rust in a moist environment. If exposed to rain, we recommend using encapsulated magnets, such as those made of polymer,
  • Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the restrictions in manufacturing threads directly in the magnet,
  • Safety concern due to small fragments may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is crucial in the health of young users. It should also be noted that minuscule fragments from these devices may complicate medical imaging if inside the body,
  • Due to the price of neodymium, their cost is above average,

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

The given pulling force of the magnet represents the maximum force, determined in a perfect environment, specifically:

  • with mild steel, used as a magnetic flux conductor
  • having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
  • with a polished side
  • with zero air gap
  • in a perpendicular direction of force
  • in normal thermal conditions

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is affected by the following aspects, arranged from the most important to the least relevant:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes 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.

* Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.

Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.

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. In addition, they can damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.

Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. However, if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the device when it is in a magnetic field.

Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their power can shock you.

Familiarize yourself with our information to properly handle these magnets and avoid significant swellings to your body and prevent damage to the magnets.

Neodymium magnetic are delicate and can easily break and get damaged.

Neodymium magnets are characterized by considerable 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.

  Magnets are not toys, children should not play with them.

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.

The magnet is coated with nickel. Therefore, exercise caution 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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.

Magnets will attract each other within a distance of several to around 10 cm from each other. Remember not to put fingers between magnets or alternatively in their path when they attract. Magnets, depending on their size, are able even cut off a finger or alternatively there can be a significant pressure or a fracture.

Keep neodymium magnets as far away as possible from GPS and smartphones.

Strong fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

Even though magnets have been observed to maintain their efficacy up to temperatures of 80°C or 175°F, it's essential to consider that this threshold may fluctuate depending on the magnet's type, configuration, and intended usage.

Exercise caution!
