1. Shear force

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

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

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

The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. 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 rod magnet, made from modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø10x10 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 10x10 / N38 model is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 3.18 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 31.15 N with a weight of only 5.89 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., 10.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure stability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are suitable for the majority of applications in automation and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest 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 store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 10 mm and height 10 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 3.18 kg (force ~31.15 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high grade of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 10 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their strong holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose power, even over approximately ten years – the drop in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under close interference source,
  • Thanks to the glossy finish, the coating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an aesthetic appearance,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which increases force concentration,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of accurate creating as well as adapting to precise requirements,
  • Key role in modern industrial fields – they are used in HDD drives, electric motors, medical devices, also modern systems.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • We recommend casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • Due to complex production process, their price exceeds standard values,

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

The specified lifting capacity represents the limit force, recorded under optimal environment, specifically:
  • using a base made of high-permeability steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • with total lack of distance (no impurities)
  • during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at standard ambient temperature

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

Holding efficiency is influenced by specific conditions, including (from priority):
  • Distance (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
  • Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is standardly several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Surface finish – ideal contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
  • Thermal factor – high temperature weakens pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.

Warnings
Allergic reactions

Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid touching magnets with bare hands or choose versions in plastic housing.

Respect the power

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can move away.

Operating temperature

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. Damage is permanent.

Eye protection

Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

This is not a toy

Adult use only. Tiny parts can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from kids and pets.

Dust explosion hazard

Powder generated during grinding of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.

Crushing risk

Large magnets can smash fingers instantly. Never place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Data carriers

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.

Precision electronics

A powerful magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets near a device to prevent breaking the sensors.

Medical interference

People with a pacemaker must maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the operation of the implant.
