1. Shear force

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just ~20% of its nominal pull.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.29

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.

View more offers

The offered product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, produced from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø10x2 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 10x2 / N38 component boasts high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 1.27 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in DIY projects, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 12.50 N with a weight of only 1.18 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this professional component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and operational stability. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø10x2), 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 2 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 1.27 kg (force ~12.50 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 oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 2 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.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Besides their tremendous strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even after nearly ten years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (theoretically),
  • Magnets very well defend themselves against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
  • In other words, due to the shiny surface of gold, the element looks attractive,
  • Magnets exhibit excellent magnetic induction on the outer side,
  • Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to versatility in designing and the ability to adapt to specific needs,
  • Huge importance in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, also technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices

Disadvantages

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and 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 suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, when using outdoors
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price exceeds standard values,

Holding force characteristics

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?

Magnet power was defined for optimal configuration, taking into account:
  • on a base made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
  • with a thickness no less than 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • with total lack of distance (without impurities)
  • under vertical application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

What influences lifting capacity in practice

In real-world applications, the actual lifting capacity results from many variables, ranked from the most important:
  • Distance (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds much less (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may attract less.
  • Surface quality – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.

Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Electronic hazard

Device Safety: Strong magnets can ruin payment cards and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).

Medical interference

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Keep away from children

Always keep magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are fatal.

Fire risk

Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

GPS and phone interference

GPS units and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.

Finger safety

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.

Eye protection

Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

Immense force

Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and connect with huge force, often faster than you can move away.

Metal Allergy

Medical facts indicate that nickel (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If you have an allergy, prevent direct skin contact and opt for encased magnets.

Demagnetization risk

Control the heat. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and strength.
