Engineering analysis of the magnet - technical parameters

These data are the result of a physical analysis. Results were calculated on models for the class Nd₂Fe₁₄B. Actual performance may deviate from the simulation results. Please consider these data as a supplementary guide when designing systems.

Table 1: Static force (force vs distance) - characteristics
MW 12x50 / N38

Distance (mm)	Induction (Gauss) / mT	Pull Force (kg/lbs/g/N)	Risk Status
0 mm	6146 Gs 614.6 mT	2.62 kg / 5.78 lbs 2620.0 g / 25.7 N	medium risk

50 mm	33 Gs 3.3 mT	0.00 kg / 0.00 lbs 0.1 g / 0.0 N	weak grip

Magnetic force drops sharply with every mm of spacing. Note that even a microscopic distance (e.g., contamination, paint, veneer) noticeably weakens the grip. Neodymiums work most effectively during direct contact; distance weakens the power. Observe how quickly the pull force drop, when the magnet does not adhere tightly to the steel surface. When designing the assembly, discard redundant distances.

Table 2: Shear load (vertical surface)
MW 12x50 / N38

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

The following data shows the theoretical force needed to start the downward movement of the magnet downwards along a vertical steel wall (considering typical friction coefficient). The holding force is a function of the gap size between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (shearing) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MW 12x50 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.79 kg / 1.73 lbs 786.0 g / 7.7 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.52 kg / 1.16 lbs 524.0 g / 5.1 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.26 kg / 0.58 lbs 262.0 g / 2.6 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	1.31 kg / 2.89 lbs 1310.0 g / 12.9 N

When placing a element on a upright plane (e.g., a fridge), it you can count on barely approx. 20%-30% of nominal attraction strength. Gravitational force and a low friction coefficient influence the fact that holders move down faster than they pull off. Planning a hanger? Note that the shear force is noticeably lower than the maximum static pull force. On a painted metal, the holder will slide down under a noticeably lighter cargo. Using a rubber pad can effectively raise the stability.

12 mm	100%	2.62 kg / 5.78 lbs 2620.0 g / 25.7 N

A too thin steel is unable to take in the entire magnetic field, which wastes potential of the magnet. If you install a neodymium to a too thin substrate, the magnetism will pass right through and the holding will be smaller. To utilize full efficiency of this neodymium's power, you need a suitably thick element of metal. The saturation phenomenon causes that on delicate walls (e.g., appliance housings), the product shows lower pull force. We suggest choosing the steel cross-section based on the following data.

Standard neodymium magnets irreversibly lose parameters above the temperature limit. Protect against heat – excessive heat can irreversibly damage this product. With increasing heat, the magnet's force temporarily drops. Avoid using this magnet in hot environments exceeding its working range. Ignoring the limit will cause destruction of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Heat tolerance is determined by both grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Flat magnets (low permeance coefficient) risk losing magnetic properties sooner than long magnets. The danger warning in the table signals permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two magnets attract each other from a much further distance than a neodymium and metal combination. The connection of two magnets creates a more powerful interaction and a larger range of operation. Designing a solid fastener? Apply two magnets instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Exercise caution that when bringing together two magnets, the impact force is massive. The levitation is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still significant.
*Flux density for N-N configuration is approximately ~0 Gs at the midpoint between the magnets (caused by magnetic field nullification).
Important: Results refer to sliding force of a pair of matching neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni layer).

Extremely neodym field poses a serious hazard to electronics and pacemakers. These magnets generate a field that prevents correct functioning of sensitive medical devices. Be aware: the unseen radiation passes through tissues and glass. Special caution must be taken by people with hearing aids and drug dispensers. Also at risk are: mechanical watches, remotes, membranes, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Dynamics (kinetic energy) - collision effects
MW 12x50 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	8.02 km/h (2.23 m/s)	0.11 J
30 mm	13.73 km/h (3.81 m/s)	0.31 J
50 mm	17.73 km/h (4.92 m/s)	0.51 J
100 mm	25.07 km/h (6.96 m/s)	1.03 J

Magnetic elements are very brittle – a collision with steel causes immediate chipping. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can trigger coating fragments or painful pinches to fingers. Hold the magnet firmly during mounting so it doesn't hit violently against the metal. A collision at high speed almost guarantees destruction of the magnet. Use safety goggles when handling with powerful specimens.

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

In water, the magnet feels stronger thanks to Archimedes' principle. As a result, your magnet will pull a heavier object from the bottom than if you lifted it in the air.

1. Sliding resistance

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely weakens the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.49

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 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 offered product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, manufactured from modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø12x50 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 12x50 / N38 component features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 2.62 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 secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

It finds application in DIY projects, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 25.73 N with a weight of only 42.41 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.

Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 12.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure stability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and operational stability. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø12x50), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our warehouse.

The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 12 mm and height 50 mm. The value of 25.73 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 42.41 g. 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. 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.

Advantages

Apart from their notable magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:

They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over more than ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
They do not lose their magnetic properties even under external field action,
Thanks to the shiny finish, the layer of nickel, gold-plated, or silver gives an elegant appearance,
Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet turns out to be strong,
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 option of accurate forming and adaptation to specialized projects, neodymium magnets can be created in a variety of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are commonly used in data components, electric drive systems, medical equipment, as well as complex engineering applications.
Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
Limited ability of producing threads in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is cover - mounting mechanism.
Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?

The force parameter is a measurement result executed under specific, ideal conditions:

using a sheet made of mild steel, serving as a circuit closing element
possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
with a surface perfectly flat
without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

During everyday use, the actual holding force depends on a number of factors, listed from the most important:

Clearance – the presence of foreign body (paint, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets

Heat sensitivity

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its magnetic structure and strength.

Safe operation

Before use, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.

Nickel coating and allergies

Studies show that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, refrain from direct skin contact and opt for coated magnets.

Pacemakers

People with a ICD must maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can stop the functioning of the implant.

Cards and drives

Very strong magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.

Compass and GPS

Be aware: neodymium magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Keep a separation from your phone, tablet, and GPS.

Product not for children

Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing intestinal necrosis. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.

Finger safety

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Protective goggles

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Flammability

Powder created during grinding of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
