1. Shear force

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

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Heat tolerance

*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) = 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.

The offered product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, made from modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø10x8 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item boasts 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. 3.38 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient filters, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 33.16 N with a weight of only 4.71 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this precision component. To ensure stability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where extreme 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 in continuous sale in our warehouse.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø10x8 mm, which, at a weight of 4.71 g, makes it an element with high 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

Besides their immense strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They do not lose power, even during nearly ten years – the drop in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Magnets perfectly defend themselves against loss of magnetization caused by external fields,
  • Thanks to the glossy finish, the layer of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver-plated gives an professional appearance,
  • Magnets have exceptionally strong magnetic induction on the active area,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Possibility of exact creating and optimizing to complex conditions,
  • Huge importance in high-tech industry – they are commonly used in hard drives, electric drive systems, diagnostic systems, and other advanced devices.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • NdFeB magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (a factor is the shape as well as 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
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited ability of creating threads in the magnet and complicated shapes - preferred is cover - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Lifting parameters

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

The force parameter is a theoretical maximum value conducted under specific, ideal conditions:
  • with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
  • with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
  • with a surface cleaned and smooth
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
  • at standard ambient temperature

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

In practice, the actual holding force is determined by a number of factors, listed from the most important:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in lifting capacity 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 exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Base massiveness – too thin sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped into the air.
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy steels lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal factor – hot environment reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Medical implants

Individuals with a heart stimulator must maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the operation of the implant.

GPS and phone interference

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

Safe operation

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

Do not give to children

Only for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, leading to intestinal necrosis. Store away from kids and pets.

Nickel allergy

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from direct skin contact and select encased magnets.

Material brittleness

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

Thermal limits

Avoid heat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, look for HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Threat to electronics

Avoid bringing magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Dust explosion hazard

Machining of neodymium magnets poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Finger safety

Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
