1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely weakens the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.89

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 exceptionally strong cylinder magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø10x10 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 10x10 / N38 model boasts a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 3.18 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building electric motors, advanced sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 31.15 N with a weight of only 5.89 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional component. To ensure stability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are strong enough for the majority of applications in modeling and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø10x10), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 10 mm and height 10 mm. The value of 31.15 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 5.89 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, 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 10 mm. Such an arrangement is standard when connecting magnets in stacks (e.g., in filters) or when mounting in sockets at the bottom of a hole. On request, we can also produce versions magnetized through the diameter if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

Apart from their strong magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They retain full power for almost ten years – the drop is just ~1% (based on simulations),
  • Neodymium magnets remain extremely resistant to magnetic field loss caused by magnetic disturbances,
  • By applying a lustrous layer of gold, the element acquires an aesthetic look,
  • They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • In view of the possibility of precise forming and customization to custom requirements, magnetic components can be modeled in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
  • Significant place in high-tech industry – they serve a role in data components, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, as well as other advanced devices.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in small dimensions, which enables their usage in miniature devices

Disadvantages

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We recommend a housing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these magnets are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat it depends on?

The declared magnet strength concerns the limit force, recorded under optimal environment, meaning:
  • on a plate made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic flux
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • with an ground contact surface
  • with direct contact (without paint)
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • at room temperature

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In practice, the actual holding force is determined by several key aspects, listed from most significant:
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
  • Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel grade – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
  • Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Warnings
Safe operation

Before use, read the rules. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Pacemakers

Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Do not give to children

NdFeB magnets are not intended for children. Accidental ingestion of several magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a critical condition and necessitates immediate surgery.

Threat to electronics

Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Pinching danger

Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Power loss in heat

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Warning for allergy sufferers

Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation occurs, immediately stop working with magnets and wear gloves.

Threat to navigation

A powerful magnetic field disrupts the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Keep magnets near a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.

Machining danger

Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Material brittleness

Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Danger! More info about risks in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
