Shopping tips

Neodymium Cylindrical Magnets min. MW 12x4 / N52 are magnets created of neodymium in a cylindrical shape. They are valued for their very strong magnetic properties, which exceed ordinary iron magnets. Because of their strength, they are frequently employed in products that require powerful holding. The standard temperature resistance of such magnets is 80°C, but for magnets in a cylindrical form, this temperature increases with their height. Additionally, various special coatings, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, are frequently applied to the surface of neodymium magnets to increase their durability to corrosion. The cylindrical shape is as well one of the most popular among neodymium magnets. The magnet with the designation MW 12x4 / N52 and a magnetic lifting capacity of 3.6 kg weighs only 3.39 grams.
Cylindrical neodymium magnets, also known as Nd2Fe14B, are the strongest known material for magnet production. The technology of their production requires a specialized approach and includes melting special neodymium alloys with other metals such as iron and boron. After a series of processes, such as heat and mechanical treatment, the magnets become ready for use in varied applications, such as electric motors, audio-video equipment, and in the automotive and aerospace industries.
Moreover, even though neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a coating of epoxy to protect them from corrosion. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, are brittle, which requires special caution during their handling. For this reason, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.

In terms of safety, there are many recommendations regarding the use of these magnets. They should not be used in acidic, basic, organic environments or in solvents, as well as in water or oil. Additionally, they can distort data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not always certain.
Regarding the purchase of cylindrical neodymium magnets, many companies offer such products. One of the suggested suppliers is our company Dhit, situated in Ożarów Mazowiecki, the address is available directly in the contact tab. It's always worth visit the website for the latest information and promotions, and before visiting, we recommend calling.
Due to their strength, cylindrical neodymium magnets are practical in many applications, they can also pose certain dangers. Due to their significant magnetic power, they can attract metallic objects with significant force, which can lead to crushing skin as well as other surfaces, especially hands. One should not use neodymium magnets near electronic devices or data storage devices, such as credit cards, as they can damage these devices in terms of magnetic recording. Moreover, neodymium magnets are prone to corrosion in humid environments, thus they are coated with a thin e.g., nickel layer. Generally, although they are handy, they should be handled with due caution.
Neodymium magnets, with the formula neodymium-iron-boron, are currently the very strong magnets on the market. They are produced through a advanced sintering process, which involves melting special alloys of neodymium with additional metals and then shaping and thermal processing. Their amazing magnetic strength comes from the specific production technology and chemical composition.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often coated with coatings, such as gold, to preserve them from environmental factors and prolong their durability. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a reduction of their magnetic strength, although there are specific types of neodymium magnets that can withstand temperatures up to 230°C.
As for dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic conditions, basic conditions, organic or solvent environments, unless they are insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.
A cylindrical neodymium magnet with classification N52 and N50 is a strong and extremely powerful magnetic piece in the form of a cylinder, that provides strong holding power and universal application. Very good price, fast shipping, resistance and versatility.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

  • Their magnetic field is durable, and after around 10 years, it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They protect against demagnetization induced by ambient magnetic influence effectively,
  • The use of a decorative gold surface provides a eye-catching finish,
  • They exhibit superior levels of magnetic induction near the outer area of the magnet,
  • These magnets tolerate high temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to form),
  • With the option for tailored forming and targeted design, these magnets can be produced in multiple shapes and sizes, greatly improving engineering flexibility,
  • Significant impact in advanced technical fields – they are utilized in computer drives, electric drives, diagnostic apparatus or even high-tech tools,
  • Compactness – despite their small size, they generate strong force, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:

  • They are fragile when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, it is advisable to use in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from fracture , and at the same time increases its overall robustness,
  • High temperatures may significantly reduce the field efficiency of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent loss in performance (depending on size). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
  • Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is advisable to use sealed magnets made of synthetic coating for outdoor use,
  • Limited ability to create complex details in the magnet – the use of a mechanical support is recommended,
  • Possible threat from tiny pieces may arise, especially if swallowed, which is notable in the health of young users. It should also be noted that miniature parts from these assemblies may hinder health screening when ingested,
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their cost is considerably higher,

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditionswhat affects it?

The given holding capacity of the magnet represents the highest holding force, measured under optimal conditions, specifically:

  • with mild steel, serving as a magnetic flux conductor
  • with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
  • with a polished side
  • with no separation
  • under perpendicular detachment force
  • under standard ambient temperature

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

Practical lifting force is dependent on factors, by priority:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
  • Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
  • Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
  • Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
  • Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
  • Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.

* Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap {between} the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safety Precautions

Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, leading to shattering.

Neodymium magnets are characterized by significant fragility. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable as steel. At the moment of collision between the magnets, sharp metal fragments can be dispersed in different directions.

Neodymium magnets are among the most powerful magnets on Earth. The surprising force they generate between each other can shock you.

Read the information on our website on how to properly utilize neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body and unintentional damage to the magnets.

Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets are a source of intense magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.

The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, etc. devices. They can also destroy videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.

People with pacemakers are advised to avoid neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

Despite the fact that magnets have been observed to maintain their efficacy up to temperatures of 80°C or 175°F, it's essential to consider that this threshold may fluctuate depending on the magnet's type, configuration, and intended usage.

It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.

Magnets will jump and also contact together within a radius of several to around 10 cm from each other.

  Neodymium magnets should not be in the vicinity children.

Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.

If you have a nickel allergy, avoid contact with neodymium magnets.

Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
