1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.35

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.

Magnet pull force

Magnetic Field

Other offers

This product is an extremely strong magnet in the shape of a plate made of NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of 60x20x10 mm and a weight of 90 g, guarantees the highest quality connection. This rectangular block with a force of 349.34 N is ready for shipment in 24h, allowing for rapid realization of your project. The durable anti-corrosion layer ensures a long lifespan in a dry environment, protecting the core from oxidation.
Separating strong flat magnets requires a technique based on sliding (moving one relative to the other), rather than forceful pulling apart. To separate the MPL 60x20x10 / N38 model, firmly slide one magnet over the edge of the other until the attraction force decreases. We recommend care, because after separation, the magnets may want to violently snap back together, which threatens pinching the skin. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.
Plate magnets MPL 60x20x10 / N38 are the foundation for many industrial devices, such as filters catching filings and linear motors. They work great as fasteners under tiles, wood, or glass. Their rectangular shape facilitates precise gluing into milled sockets in wood or plastic.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 60x20x10 / N38, it is best to use strong epoxy glues (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. Double-sided tape cushions vibrations, which is an advantage when mounting in moving elements. 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 60x20x10 mm, which, at a weight of 90 g, makes it an element with impressive energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 35.61 kg (force ~349.34 N), which, with such a compact shape, proves the high grade of the material. The product meets the standards for N38 grade magnets.

Pros and cons of neodymium magnets.

Strengths

Besides their tremendous magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They have stable power, and over more than ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • They do not lose their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
  • By covering with a lustrous layer of silver, the element presents an aesthetic look,
  • Magnets are characterized by exceptionally strong magnetic induction on the outer side,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Thanks to versatility in designing and the ability to modify to client solutions,
  • Key role in innovative solutions – they find application in HDD drives, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in tiny dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices

Limitations

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • We suggest casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Lifting parameters

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?

The lifting capacity listed is a result of laboratory testing executed under standard conditions:
  • using a sheet made of mild steel, serving as a magnetic yoke
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • characterized by even structure
  • with direct contact (no impurities)
  • under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

Real force is influenced by working environment parameters, such as (from priority):
  • Gap between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Angle of force application – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the plate is typically many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

H&S for magnets
Danger to the youngest

Only for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, causing intestinal necrosis. Store away from children and animals.

GPS and phone interference

GPS units and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.

Pinching danger

Large magnets can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Never put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Threat to electronics

Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Allergic reactions

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. For allergy sufferers, prevent touching magnets with bare hands or opt for coated magnets.

Warning for heart patients

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.

Dust is flammable

Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is explosive. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Safe operation

Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Beware of splinters

Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets leads to them cracking into small pieces.

Heat sensitivity

Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet to high heat will ruin its properties and pulling force.
