The 20 x 5mm N42H Neodymium Disc Magnet is a powerful rare earth permanent magnet designed for applications requiring strong magnetic holding force in a compact size. Manufactured from high-performance Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB), this round magnet offers excellent magnetic strength, durability and resistance to demagnetisation.
With a 20mm diameter, 5mm thickness and a rated pulling force of 7.43kg, this magnet is ideal for industrial applications, electronics, magnetic fixtures, DIY projects, crafts and general holding or mounting applications.
The magnet features a triple-layer Nickel-Copper-Nickel (Ni-Cu-Ni) coating, providing a smooth silver finish and protection against corrosion under normal indoor conditions. Its N42H grade allows for a maximum operating temperature of up to 120°C, making it suitable for applications where higher temperature resistance is required.

Important Handling and Safety Information
-
Neodymium magnets are extremely strong and should be handled carefully to prevent pinching injuries.
-
The magnet is brittle and may crack, chip or shatter if dropped or allowed to collide with another magnet or metal surface.
-
Do not drill, cut, grind or machine neodymium magnets.
-
Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or corrosive environments, particularly if the nickel coating becomes damaged.
-
Keep away from small children, as swallowed magnets can cause serious internal injuries.
-
Keep magnets away from pacemakers, sensitive electronic devices and equipment that may be affected by strong magnetic fields.
-
Although N42H magnets are rated for operation up to 120°C, excessive temperatures can cause permanent loss of magnetic strength.
Please Note: The rated 7.43kg pulling force represents an ideal direct-pull measurement against a suitable thick, flat steel surface. Actual holding strength will vary depending on the mounting surface, air gap, material thickness, pulling direction and operating conditions. Sliding or shear holding force is generally lower than direct pulling force.
Package Includes: 1 x Round Neodymium Disc Magnet 20 x 5mm – N42H.
