1. Wall mount (shear)

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.79

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.

Other products

This product is an exceptionally strong cylinder magnet, composed of advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø10x8 mm, guarantees optimal power. This specific item is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 3.38 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in modeling, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 33.16 N with a weight of only 4.71 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.
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 professional component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are strong enough for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø10x8), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø10x8 mm, which, at a weight of 4.71 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The value of 33.16 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 4.71 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, 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. 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

Apart from their superior power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose strength, even after nearly 10 years – the drop in power is only ~1% (theoretically),
  • They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external magnetic fields,
  • The use of an elegant finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet is impressive,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are able to function (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • In view of the option of accurate molding and adaptation to specialized requirements, magnetic components can be manufactured in a variety of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
  • Fundamental importance in electronics industry – they serve a role in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, medical equipment, also complex engineering applications.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • Due to complex production process, their price exceeds standard values,

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what affects it?

Magnet power was determined for optimal configuration, assuming:
  • on a plate made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic flux
  • whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
  • with a plane cleaned and smooth
  • without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
  • at conditions approx. 20°C

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

During everyday use, the real power results from many variables, listed from the most important:
  • Distance – existence of foreign body (paint, dirt, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Pull-off angle – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Metal type – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
  • Base smoothness – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Maximum temperature

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its properties and strength.

Compass and GPS

A strong magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.

Conscious usage

Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Finger safety

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Nickel allergy

A percentage of the population experience a contact allergy to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling may cause skin redness. It is best to wear safety gloves.

Pacemakers

People with a pacemaker must maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can stop the operation of the life-saving device.

Electronic devices

Powerful magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm.

Machining danger

Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Adults only

Always keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.

Fragile material

Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
