Frequently asked questions

What is the hole in a ring magnet for?
For mounting on a screw or a shaft. The bore may be cylindrical or countersunk for a screw head. The hole removes magnet volume, so a ring holds less than a disc of the same outside diameter.
What is the polarisation?
Axial as standard — poles on the flat faces of the ring. Diametrical polarisation is made to order.
What sizes are available?
Outside diameter from 5 to 62 mm from stock. To order up to 200 mm outside diameter, 180 mm bore and 40 mm height, with a lead time of 25–35 days.

1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just ~20% of its max power.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Thermal stability

*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.28

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


Field Strength

Other proposals

It is ideally suited for places where solid attachment of the magnet to the substrate is required without the risk of detachment. Thanks to the hole (often for a screw), this model enables easy screwing to wood, wall, plastic, or metal. This product with a force of 2.53 kg works great as a cabinet closure, speaker holder, or mounting element in devices.
This is a crucial issue when working with model MP 14x8/4x3 / N38. Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle and inelastic. One turn too many can destroy the magnet, so do it slowly. The flat screw head should evenly press the magnet. Remember: cracking during assembly results from material properties, not a product defect.
These magnets are coated with standard Ni-Cu-Ni plating, which protects them in indoor conditions, but is not sufficient for rain. Damage to the protective layer during assembly is the most common cause of rusting. If you must use it outside, paint it with anti-corrosion paint after mounting.
The inner hole diameter determines the maximum size of the mounting element. For magnets with a straight hole, a conical head can act like a wedge and burst the magnet. Aesthetic mounting requires selecting the appropriate head size.
The presented product is a ring magnet with dimensions Ø14 mm (outer diameter) and height 3 mm. The pulling force of this model is an impressive 2.53 kg, which translates to 24.85 N in newtons. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating and is made of NdFeB material. Inner hole dimension: 8/4 mm.
These magnets are magnetized axially (through the thickness), which means one flat side is the N pole and the other is S. If you want two such magnets screwed with cones facing each other (faces) to attract, you must connect them with opposite poles (N to S). When ordering a larger quantity, magnets are usually packed in stacks, where they are already naturally paired.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Pros

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They do not lose power, even over nearly 10 years – the drop in strength is only ~1% (theoretically),
  • They possess excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties when exposed to opposing magnetic fields,
  • Thanks to the smooth finish, the plating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver gives an professional appearance,
  • Magnets are distinguished by extremely high magnetic induction on the working surface,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for action at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of exact shaping as well as adapting to precise conditions,
  • Universal use in modern technologies – they are commonly used in HDD drives, electric drive systems, medical equipment, as well as multitasking production systems.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Cons

Cons of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Due to limitations in creating nuts and complex forms in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mechanism.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price is relatively high,

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat affects it?

The load parameter shown represents the limit force, recorded under optimal environment, namely:
  • with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • characterized by even structure
  • with total lack of distance (without impurities)
  • under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Real force is influenced by working environment parameters, such as (from priority):
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
  • Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet holds much less (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Steel thickness – too thin steel does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be wasted to the other side.
  • Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Surface structure – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering 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, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Beware of splinters

Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets leads to them breaking into small pieces.

Nickel allergy

Certain individuals experience a sensitization to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact might lead to a rash. We strongly advise use protective gloves.

Implant safety

People with a heart stimulator must keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.

Bodily injuries

Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together instantly with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Flammability

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Maximum temperature

Control the heat. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and pulling force.

Data carriers

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

GPS and phone interference

A powerful magnetic field disrupts the operation of compasses in phones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets close to a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.

No play value

Adult use only. Tiny parts can be swallowed, leading to intestinal necrosis. Keep away from children and animals.

Conscious usage

Be careful. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can move away.
