1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Heat tolerance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.09

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.

Magnet pull force

Magnetic Induction

Other proposals

This product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, made from durable NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø10x15 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 2.60 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 25.51 N with a weight of only 8.84 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 10.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating 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 (Ø10x15), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our store.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø10x15 mm, which, at a weight of 8.84 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 2.60 kg (force ~25.51 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high grade 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 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

Apart from their strong holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even over approximately ten years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Neodymium magnets prove to be highly resistant to demagnetization caused by external magnetic fields,
  • The use of an metallic layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is a key feature,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to freedom in forming and the capacity to modify to complex applications,
  • Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they find application in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, diagnostic systems, also industrial machines.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Cons

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mount.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small elements of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Holding force characteristics

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

The lifting capacity listed is a theoretical maximum value executed under standard conditions:
  • on a base made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
  • with a thickness minimum 10 mm
  • characterized by even structure
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • in stable room temperature

What influences lifting capacity in practice

During everyday use, the actual holding force results from many variables, ranked from the most important:
  • Distance (between the magnet and the plate), because even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Angle of force application – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is typically several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Thermal environment – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Warnings
Danger to the youngest

Always store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.

GPS Danger

Note: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts precision electronics. Keep a safe distance from your mobile, device, and GPS.

Operating temperature

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Cards and drives

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Fire warning

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Safe operation

Use magnets consciously. Their immense force can surprise even experienced users. Stay alert and respect their force.

Pinching danger

Big blocks can crush fingers instantly. Under no circumstances place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Magnet fragility

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.

ICD Warning

People with a ICD have to keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the implant.

Warning for allergy sufferers

Allergy Notice: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, cease working with magnets and wear gloves.
