Magnetic force weakens significantly per each millimeter of gap. Keep in mind that even a microscopic distance (e.g., dirt, paint, dust) noticeably reduces the pull force. Neodymiums hold strongest in perfect adhesion; air break drastically cuts the power. Analyze how rapidly the load capacity plummet, when the magnet does not touch flatly to the metal substrate. When calculating the assembly, avoid unnecessary gaps.

The following data shows the theoretical holding capacity required to cause the slippage of the magnet down against a upright steel plate (assuming typical friction). The holding force is relative to the gap size between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces

Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.92 kg / 2.03 LBS 920.0 g / 9.0 N

Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	2.30 kg / 5.07 LBS 2300.0 g / 22.6 N

When mounting a holder on a vertical wall (e.g., a car body), it you can count on barely approx. 20%-30% of its nominal power. Gravitational force and a weak degree of grip cause that magnets slip faster than they pull off. Designing a vertical fastening? Remember that the shear force is significantly lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a slippery surface, the element will slide down under a significantly smaller weight. Using a rubber pad can drastically improve the result.

A thin metal plate is unable to conduct the entire magnetic field, which squanders power of the holder. Should you mount a strong magnet to a too thin substrate, the magnetism will pass right through and the holding will be smaller. To squeeze the maximum of this neodymium's potential, you need a suitably thick piece of metal. The saturation effect means that on delicate walls (e.g., thin profiles), the product shows lower pull force. We advise picking the steel thickness according to the table below.

100 °C	-28.8%	3.28 kg / 7.22 LBS 3275.2 g / 32.1 N

Standard neodymium magnets change their properties power after exceeding the maximum temperature. Avoid high temperatures – heat can irreversibly damage this magnet. As the temperature rises, the magnet's force briefly drops. Do not use this magnet close to heaters exceeding its working range. Ignoring the limit will lead to destruction of magnetic properties.

*Technical advisory: Heat tolerance is determined by both grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (low Pc) are more susceptible to demagnetization sooner than taller cylinders. The danger warning in the table indicates permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two magnets attract each other from a much further distance than a magnet and sheet setup. The connection of magnet-to-magnet creates a more powerful interaction and a wider radius of performance. Designing a powerful holder? Utilize two neodymiums instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Remember that when bringing together two magnets, the impact force is massive. The levitation is a bit weaker than the connection force, but still significant.
*Flux density between like poles is approximately ~0 Gs at the midpoint of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
Important: Results refer to shear force of two matching magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Extremely neodym field is a large risk to electronics and medical implants. These magnets produce a field that prevents correct functioning of digital equipment. Notice: the unseen radiation acts through matter and housings. Special caution must be taken by people with hearing aids and drug dispensers. Also at risk are: automatic timepieces, remotes, speakers, and screens. Do not bring the product near payment cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Magnetic elements are delicate – a strong collision with metal can result in shattering. Control the attraction moment – a magnet released freely speeds with massive force. Striking energy can destroy the magnet or dangerous crushing to skin. Hold the magnet firmly during bringing near metal so it doesn't hit violently against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h means shattering of the magnet. Use safety goggles when working with powerful specimens.

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

*For standard magnets, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.59

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.

This product is an incredibly powerful cylindrical magnet, produced from durable NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø12x6 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 12x6 / N38 component boasts an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 4.60 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard 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 positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 45.09 N with a weight of only 5.09 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.

Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, 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 automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.

Magnets N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø12x6), 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 Ø12x6 mm, which, at a weight of 5.09 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 4.60 kg (force ~45.09 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.

This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 6 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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 neodymium magnets.

Pros

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

Their magnetic field remains stable, and after approximately 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
They do not lose their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
In other words, due to the metallic finish of silver, the element looks attractive,
Neodymium magnets ensure maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
Thanks to versatility in constructing and the ability to customize to individual projects,
Huge importance in high-tech industry – they serve a role in mass storage devices, brushless drives, advanced medical instruments, also industrial machines.
Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets and ways of using them

Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a special holder, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their 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 usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
We suggest a housing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?

The load parameter shown concerns the limit force, obtained under laboratory conditions, meaning:

with the use of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
with an polished contact surface
without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
at temperature room level

Key elements affecting lifting force

During everyday use, the actual holding force is determined by a number of factors, presented from crucial:

Distance – the presence of foreign body (rust, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Base massiveness – too thin steel does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be wasted into the air.
Material type – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
Plate texture – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which increases force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
Temperature – temperature increase results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Warnings

Thermal limits

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Safe distance

Powerful magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.

Magnets are brittle

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

Medical interference

Patients with a pacemaker should keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the functioning of the implant.

Dust explosion hazard

Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Crushing force

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

GPS and phone interference

A strong magnetic field disrupts the functioning of compasses in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.

Skin irritation risks

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If redness happens, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.

Adults only

These products are not intended for children. Swallowing multiple magnets may result in them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.

Do not underestimate power

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