1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 grade, the safety limit 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.

Model MPL 60x20x10 / 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. 35.61 kg), this product is available immediately from our warehouse in Poland. 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. Watch your fingers! Magnets with a force of 35.61 kg can pinch very hard and cause hematomas. Using a screwdriver risks destroying the coating and permanently cracking the magnet.
They constitute a key element in the production of wind generators and material handling systems. They work great as invisible mounts 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.
For mounting flat magnets MPL 60x20x10 / N38, we recommend utilizing strong epoxy glues (e.g., UHU Endfest, Distal), which ensure a durable bond with metal or plastic. 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 60x20x10 / N38 model is magnetized through the thickness (dimension 10 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 (60x20 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 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 protective [NiCuNi] coating secures the magnet against corrosion.

Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their strong magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • Their magnetic field is durable, and after approximately 10 years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • Magnets perfectly defend themselves against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
  • Thanks to the reflective finish, the layer of nickel, gold, or silver-plated gives an clean appearance,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet turns out to be maximum,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to modularity in shaping and the capacity to customize to complex applications,
  • Universal use in modern technologies – they serve a role in magnetic memories, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, also industrial machines.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Weaknesses

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mechanism.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Holding force characteristics

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnetwhat it depends on?

The force parameter is a result of laboratory testing performed under standard conditions:
  • with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • in neutral thermal conditions

What influences lifting capacity in practice

Holding efficiency impacted by specific conditions, mainly (from priority):
  • Distance – the presence of any layer (rust, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the plate is standardly several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Base massiveness – too thin sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
  • Metal type – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Thermal environment – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Safe operation

Handle magnets with awareness. Their huge power can surprise even experienced users. Stay alert and respect their force.

Allergy Warning

A percentage of the population have a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact might lead to an allergic reaction. We suggest wear protective gloves.

Protect data

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

Compass and GPS

Navigation devices and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.

Material brittleness

Despite metallic appearance, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

Dust is flammable

Fire warning: Neodymium dust is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Do not give to children

Adult use only. Tiny parts can be swallowed, leading to severe trauma. Store out of reach of children and animals.

Demagnetization risk

Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Warning for heart patients

For implant holders: Powerful magnets affect electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Bone fractures

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
