Technical analysis of the product - data

The following information represent the direct effect of a engineering analysis. Values are based on algorithms for the class Nd₂Fe₁₄B. Actual conditions may differ from theoretical values. Please consider these calculations as a supplementary guide for designers.

MW 12x4 / N52

Distance (mm)	Induction (Gauss) / mT	Pull Force (kg/lbs/g/N)	Risk Status
0 mm	4003 Gs 400.3 mT	4.68 kg / 10.32 pounds 4680.0 g / 45.9 N	medium risk

50 mm	7 Gs 0.7 mT	0.00 kg / 0.00 pounds 0.0 g / 0.0 N	weak grip

Grip strength weakens sharply with every mm of spacing. Remember that even a microscopic distance (e.g., contamination, varnish, veneer) noticeably diminishes the holding power. Magnets operate most effectively during direct contact; gap kills the force. See how rapidly the load capacity fall, when the magnet does not adhere flatly to the metal substrate. When calculating the mounting, discard unnecessary gaps.

Table 2: Sliding capacity (wall)

50 mm	Stal (~0.2)	0.00 kg / 0.00 pounds 0.0 g / 0.0 N

The following data indicates the estimated holding capacity required to initiate the sliding of the magnet down on a vertical steel plate (considering typical friction). This value is relative to the gap size between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Wall mounting (shearing) - vertical pull
MW 12x4 / N52

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	1.40 kg / 3.10 pounds 1404.0 g / 13.8 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.94 kg / 2.06 pounds 936.0 g / 9.2 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.47 kg / 1.03 pounds 468.0 g / 4.6 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	2.34 kg / 5.16 pounds 2340.0 g / 23.0 N

When mounting a element on a vertical plane (e.g., a fridge), it will only hold barely about 20%-30% of nominal attraction strength. Gravitational force and a weak degree of grip mean that holders move down faster than they detach. Designing a wall mount? Consider that the sliding force is noticeably lower than the maximum static pull force. On a slippery surface, the magnet will slip down under a noticeably lighter weight. Utilizing a rubberized layer can effectively improve the result.

Steel thickness (mm)	% power	Real pull force (kg/lbs/g/N)
0.5 mm	10%	0.47 kg / 1.03 pounds 468.0 g / 4.6 N

2 mm	50%	2.34 kg / 5.16 pounds 2340.0 g / 23.0 N
3 mm	75%	3.51 kg / 7.74 pounds 3510.0 g / 34.4 N
5 mm	100%	4.68 kg / 10.32 pounds 4680.0 g / 45.9 N

12 mm	100%	4.68 kg / 10.32 pounds 4680.0 g / 45.9 N

A too thin steel is incapable of focus the full magnetic flux, which wastes potential of the holder. Should you mount a strong magnet to a too thin substrate, the magnetism will penetrate right through and the holding will be smaller. To squeeze full efficiency of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid piece of steel. The saturation phenomenon causes that on delicate walls (e.g., appliance housings), the holder works worse. We advise picking the steel cross-section based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums lose parameters past the thermal threshold. Protect against heat – high temperature can irreversibly destroy this product. With every degree above norm, the neodymium's capacity momentarily decreases. Do not use this product near heat sources higher than its operating temperature limit. Too high temperature will cause permanent loss of magnetic properties.

*Engineering note: Thermal stability is determined by both grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Flat magnets (pancake types) are more susceptible to demagnetization at lower temperatures than taller cylinders. Warning indicator in the table indicates a risk of irreversible loss for this specific geometry.

Two magnets attract each other from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and sheet combination. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet generates a stronger field and a wider radius of operation. Designing a strong closure? Apply two magnets instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Remember that when attracting two neodymiums, the impact force is extreme. The repulsion force is a bit weaker than the attraction, but still significant.
*Field value for N-N configuration reaches ~0 Gs at the geometric center between the magnets (resulting from vector opposition).
Attention: Figures demonstrate friction force of a pair of identical magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a real danger to electronics as well as medical implants. These neodymiums produce a field that destroys function of digital equipment. Remember: the unseen radiation penetrates the body and plastic. Increased vigilance must be taken by people with hearing aids and drug dispensers. The risk also applies to: automatic timepieces, remotes, membranes, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are prone to chipping – a violent impact against metal can result in shattering. Watch the impact speed – a magnet released freely turns into a projectile. Impact energy can cause material chips or dangerous crushing to skin. Always hold the magnet during mounting so it doesn't slam with momentum against the steel surface. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h almost guarantees destruction of the magnet. Wear eye protection when playing with large magnets.

Warning: This magnet has a standard nickel coating. After use in water, it must be dried and maintained immediately, otherwise it will rust!

The magnetic field penetrates through water without any losses. Buoyancy helps in lifting finds.

1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just ~20% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.44

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 P_c (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 P_c 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 an exceptionally strong cylinder magnet, produced from modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø12x4 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item boasts an accuracy of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 4.68 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

It successfully proves itself in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 45.89 N with a weight of only 3.39 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.

Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional 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.

Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are strong enough 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 (Ø12x4), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.

The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 12 mm and height 4 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 4.68 kg (force ~45.89 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface 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 12 mm. Such an arrangement is most desirable 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.

Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.

Pros

Besides their remarkable pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

They do not lose magnetism, even over approximately 10 years – the drop in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
Neodymium magnets are distinguished by remarkably resistant to demagnetization caused by external magnetic fields,
By using a lustrous coating of silver, the element acquires an proper look,
The surface of neodymium magnets generates a powerful magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
In view of the potential of precise molding and customization to custom solutions, neodymium magnets can be modeled in a variety of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
Universal use in innovative solutions – they find application in data components, electromotive mechanisms, precision medical tools, also industrial machines.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions

Cons

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets: application proposals

To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
Neodymium magnets lose their power 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
When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
Limited possibility of creating nuts in the magnet and complicated shapes - preferred is a housing - mounting mechanism.
Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these devices can complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
Due to complex production process, their price is higher than average,

Pull force analysis

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

The load parameter shown represents the maximum value, recorded under optimal environment, namely:

with the application of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
with an ground contact surface
without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
under vertical force direction (90-degree angle)
in stable room temperature

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

Please note that the application force may be lower influenced by elements below, in order of importance:

Distance (between the magnet and the metal), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Plate thickness – insufficiently thick sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content worsen the interaction with the magnet.
Surface structure – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Warnings

Medical implants

Individuals with a heart stimulator should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the operation of the implant.

Serious injuries

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Compass and GPS

An intense magnetic field disrupts the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets near a device to avoid damaging the sensors.

Machining danger

Dust generated during cutting of magnets is self-igniting. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.

Cards and drives

Intense magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Material brittleness

Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

Respect the power

Use magnets consciously. Their huge power can surprise even experienced users. Stay alert and respect their power.

Heat warning

Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature exceeds 80°C. Damage is permanent.

Avoid contact if allergic

Certain individuals have a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching might lead to a rash. It is best to wear safety gloves.

This is not a toy

Neodymium magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of several magnets may result in them attracting across intestines, which poses a critical condition and requires urgent medical intervention.
