1. Wall mount (shear)

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly limits the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

*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) = 1.21

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.

Other products

This product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø10x20 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 10x20 / N38 component features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 2.23 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 21.88 N with a weight of only 11.78 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
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 stability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø10x20), 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 20 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 2.23 kg (force ~21.88 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 20 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • Their power is maintained, and after around ten years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
  • A magnet with a shiny silver surface has better aesthetics,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to versatility in forming and the capacity to modify to specific needs,
  • Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are used in computer drives, electric motors, diagnostic systems, and multitasking production systems.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Weaknesses

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength 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
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore when using outdoors, we advise using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

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

The lifting capacity listed is a measurement result conducted under specific, ideal conditions:
  • with the use of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • with a thickness of at least 10 mm
  • with an ground touching surface
  • without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
  • under axial force direction (90-degree angle)
  • at temperature room level

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Effective lifting capacity is affected by specific conditions, including (from priority):
  • Gap (between the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Plate thickness – insufficiently thick plate causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be wasted into the air.
  • Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Surface finish – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Hand protection

Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not place your hand between two strong magnets.

Handling rules

Handle with care. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can move away.

Keep away from electronics

Remember: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.

Eye protection

Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

No play value

These products are not intended for children. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a direct threat to life and requires immediate surgery.

Protect data

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetism can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.

Combustion hazard

Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Nickel coating and allergies

It is widely known that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, prevent touching magnets with bare hands and select coated magnets.

ICD Warning

Patients with a ICD should keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the operation of the implant.

Operating temperature

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.
