Pull Force*
50kg
The Pull Force listed for each magnet is based on lifting 10mm thick steel from a horizontal surface. Magnets on a vertical surface (of 10mm thick steel) are generally able to hold around only 30% of the pull force listed in the product description. This is due to the effects of gravity and the lack of friction between the surface and the shiny magnet. Read More

Neodymium Magnetic Fixing Plate – D60mm | M20 Thread
The Neodymium Magnetic Fixing Plate – D60mm | M20 Thread is a heavy-duty rare earth magnetic mounting solution designed for securely attaching compatible equipment, fixtures and components to ferromagnetic steel surfaces. Featuring a 60mm diameter magnetic base and an M20 threaded connection, this fixing plate combines powerful neodymium magnetic performance with a robust threaded mounting point for industrial, engineering and commercial applications.
The M20 thread provides a convenient mechanical connection for compatible threaded components, allowing the magnetic fixing plate to be incorporated into custom mounting systems without permanently drilling or modifying the supporting steel surface.
Using high-strength neodymium rare earth magnetic material, this magnetic fixing plate provides excellent holding performance relative to its compact size. It is particularly useful for temporary, removable and repositionable mounting applications on machinery, steel frames, fabrication tables, equipment and other suitable ferromagnetic surfaces.

M20 Threaded Magnetic Mounting
The integrated M20 thread provides a substantial mechanical connection point for compatible threaded components.
Depending on the application, the fixing plate can be incorporated into custom brackets, supports, fixtures, handles and equipment assemblies, providing a magnetic connection between the mounted component and a suitable steel surface.
The threaded design also allows the magnetic base to be removed and reused when equipment layouts or mounting requirements change.
Always confirm the M20 thread type, engagement length and compatibility with the component being attached before installation.
Why Choose a Neodymium Magnetic Fixing Plate?
Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB) is one of the strongest commercially available permanent magnetic materials. Its high magnetic energy allows substantial magnetic holding performance to be achieved from relatively compact magnetic assemblies.
With a 60mm diameter, this magnetic fixing plate provides a broad contact surface for mounting against compatible steel. This makes it useful where a compact but powerful magnetic base is required.
Unlike permanent mechanical fasteners, a magnetic fixing plate can provide a non-invasive mounting solution where drilling, welding or otherwise modifying the supporting steel structure is undesirable.

Removable and Repositionable Magnetic Fixing
A key advantage of the D60mm M20 magnetic fixing plate is its ability to create a strong mounting point without requiring permanent modification to the supporting steel surface.
This can be useful for:
- Temporary equipment installations
- Prototype development
- Adjustable fixtures
- Frequently repositioned equipment
- Workshop and fabrication setups
- Machinery accessories
- Removable mounting systems
The magnetic base can be repositioned as requirements change, providing greater flexibility than many permanently drilled or welded mounting points.
Getting the Best Magnetic Holding Performance
For maximum holding performance, the magnetic fixing plate should make direct, flat contact with clean and sufficiently thick ferromagnetic steel.
Magnetic holding performance can be reduced by:
- Thin steel
- Paint and protective coatings
- Rust or surface contamination
- Air gaps
- Curved or uneven mounting surfaces
- Sideways or shear loading
- Peeling forces
Magnetic pull-force ratings, where specified separately, are generally measured under controlled direct-pull conditions against clean, thick, flat steel. Real-world holding capacity may be substantially lower depending on the installation.
Industrial and Engineering Applications
The combination of a 60mm neodymium magnetic base and M20 threaded connection makes this fixing plate suitable for engineers, manufacturers, fabricators and maintenance teams requiring a robust but removable magnetic attachment point.
It can be used on suitable steel machinery, fabrication tables, structural frames, industrial equipment and other ferromagnetic surfaces, provided the complete installation is appropriate for the intended load and operating conditions.
Please Note
This is a powerful neodymium magnetic assembly and should be handled carefully. Keep fingers clear when positioning the fixing plate against steel, as sudden magnetic attraction can create a pinch or crush hazard.
Always ensure the M20 threaded connection is correctly engaged and securely fastened before use.
Actual magnetic holding performance depends on the steel thickness and grade, surface condition, contact area, air gaps and direction of applied force. Shear, sideways and peeling loads can significantly reduce effective holding capacity compared with direct pull.
This magnetic fixing plate should not be used as certified lifting equipment, an overhead suspension point or a safety-critical mounting device unless the complete installation has been appropriately engineered and tested for that purpose.
Keep strong magnets away from children, pacemakers, medical implants, magnetic storage media and sensitive electronic equipment.
NB: Ranges are indicative for product category, please check individual products for specic values within that range.
The most common coating for Neodymium magnets is Nickel + Copper + Nickel (Ni + Cu + Ni). This coating offers the magnet relatively good protection from corrosion and passive applications. If the magnet will be exposed to moisture or liquid then consider the use of an organic coating such as Epoxy. A hard wearing coating, Epoxy is suited to applications where the magnet will come under some friction or knocking.
Magnets are readily available in Blocks, Discs, Cylinders & Rings. AMF Magnetics specializes in the supply of short-run prototype magnets including Arc Segments, various magnetic orientations etc. If you need a magnet size that we don't carry in stock, submit a Design-a-Magnet enquiry for a quote on your custom magnet design.
Neodymium magnets are offered in several different grades. The first section N30-54 has an operating temperature of up to 80 degrees. Most of our stock only goes up to N38. The second section, denoted with the "M" prefix after the grade has an operating temperature 100 degrees. After this the grades are "H", "SH", "UH" & "EH". In order for the magnet to withstand a higher operating temperature, during production more of the raw material PrNd is incorporated as these elements have a naturally occurring resistance to high temperatures.
