1. Wall mount (shear)

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly weakens 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) = 0.59

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.

The presented product is a very strong rod magnet, composed of advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø10x5 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 3.19 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical 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 maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 31.28 N with a weight of only 2.95 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics 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 precision component. To ensure stability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and operational stability. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø10x5), 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 Ø10x5 mm, which, at a weight of 2.95 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 3.19 kg (force ~31.28 N), which, with such compact 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 5 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Pros

Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They retain attractive force for almost 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (according to analyses),
  • Neodymium magnets are exceptionally resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external field sources,
  • The use of an metallic finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
  • Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet is maximum,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Thanks to freedom in shaping and the ability to adapt to unusual requirements,
  • Wide application in electronics industry – they serve a role in computer drives, electric motors, precision medical tools, and technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Cons

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • NdFeB magnets lose strength when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat contributes to it?

Breakaway force was defined for the most favorable conditions, taking into account:
  • using a plate made of mild steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
  • with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • without any clearance between the magnet and steel
  • under vertical application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at conditions approx. 20°C

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

Real force impacted by working environment parameters, including (from priority):
  • Clearance – the presence of foreign body (paint, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Angle of force application – maximum parameter is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is typically several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Steel thickness – insufficiently thick sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be lost to the other side.
  • Material composition – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases force. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

H&S for magnets
Maximum temperature

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

Magnetic interference

GPS units and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Bodily injuries

Danger of trauma: The attraction force is so immense that it can cause hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.

Allergy Warning

It is widely known that nickel (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and select versions in plastic housing.

Data carriers

Do not bring magnets close to a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Respect the power

Handle magnets consciously. Their huge power can shock even professionals. Plan your moves and respect their force.

Medical interference

Life threat: Strong magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Fire warning

Mechanical processing of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Magnet fragility

Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them breaking into shards.

Do not give to children

NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Eating a few magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.
