1. Vertical hold

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Power loss vs temp

*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.40

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.

This product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, made from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø100x30 mm, guarantees optimal power. This specific item boasts a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 215.17 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in modeling, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 2110.78 N with a weight of only 1767.15 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.
Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 100.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø100x30), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our warehouse.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 100 mm and height 30 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 215.17 kg (force ~2110.78 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
Standardly, the magnetic axis runs through the center of the cylinder, causing the greatest attraction force to occur on the bases with a diameter of 100 mm. Thanks to this, the magnet can be easily glued into a hole and achieve a strong field on the front surface. On request, we can also produce versions magnetized diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their notable magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They have constant strength, and over nearly ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
  • Magnets very well resist against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
  • Thanks to the elegant finish, the plating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an elegant appearance,
  • Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet remains impressive,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Considering the possibility of flexible shaping and adaptation to unique requirements, NdFeB magnets can be manufactured in a wide range of geometric configurations, which amplifies use scope,
  • Significant place in future technologies – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, motor assemblies, diagnostic systems, also multitasking production systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Cons of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their force 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 stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we advise using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Pull force analysis

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what affects it?

The load parameter shown refers to the maximum value, obtained under optimal environment, namely:
  • using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
  • whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
  • characterized by even structure
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

In practice, the real power depends on several key aspects, ranked from crucial:
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), because 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 dirt).
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
  • Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

H&S for magnets
Operating temperature

Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Nickel coating and allergies

Some people experience a sensitization to Ni, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact may cause a rash. We recommend use safety gloves.

Conscious usage

Before use, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

GPS and phone interference

Remember: rare earth magnets generate a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your mobile, tablet, and GPS.

Danger to pacemakers

For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Swallowing risk

Only for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from children and animals.

Risk of cracking

Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Collision of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.

Bodily injuries

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.

Safe distance

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Fire risk

Dust generated during grinding of magnets is combustible. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
