Pulling power decreases sharply with every subsequent millimeter of gap. Note that even a very thin break (e.g., contamination, varnish, rust) significantly diminishes the holding power. Neodymiums work optimally at the point of direct contact; distance nullifies the force. Notice how flashily the load capacity fall, when the magnet does not adhere directly to the steel surface. When calculating the mounting, avoid unnecessary gaps.

The following data indicates the estimated force necessary to initiate the shifting of the magnet downwards along a vertical metal surface (considering typical friction). The holding force varies with the air gap between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (sliding) - vertical pull
MW 12x6 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	1.38 kg / 3.04 pounds 1380.0 g / 13.5 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.92 kg / 2.03 pounds 920.0 g / 9.0 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.46 kg / 1.01 pounds 460.0 g / 4.5 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	2.30 kg / 5.07 pounds 2300.0 g / 22.6 N

When mounting a magnet on a upright wall (e.g., a fridge), it will only hold barely approx. 20%-30% of nominal attraction strength. Gravity and a weak degree of grip influence the fact that products slide down easier than they detach. Designing a hanger? Remember that the shear force is noticeably lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a slippery surface, the magnet will slip down under a noticeably lighter cargo. Using a rubber pad can effectively improve the result.

12 mm	100%	4.60 kg / 10.14 pounds 4600.0 g / 45.1 N

A too thin steel is not enough to conduct the full magnetic flux, which wastes potential of the holder. If you mount a strong magnet to a weak sheet, the flux will penetrate right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To achieve full efficiency of this neodymium's potential, you require a sufficiently solid backing of steel. The saturation effect means that on delicate walls (e.g., thin profiles), the product holds weaker. We recommend selecting the steel thickness from these parameters.

Ordinary NdFeB products lose strength above the temperature limit. Watch out for overheating – high temperature can irreversibly demagnetize this magnet. As the temperature rises, the magnet's capacity momentarily lowers. Do not use this magnet close to heaters higher than its working range. Too high temperature will result in irreversible degradation of magnetic properties.

*Engineering note: Temperature resistance is determined by both grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Flat magnets (pancake types) may lose charge permanently under lower heat stress compared to rod magnets. The danger warning in the table signals permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two magnets interact from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and steel combination. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet creates a more powerful interaction and a further horizon of operation. Designing a solid fastener? Apply two magnets instead of a neodymium and a steel. Be careful that when bringing together two magnets, the collision energy is extreme. The repulsion force is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still significant.
*Field value between like poles is approximately ~0 Gs at the midpoint between the magnets (caused by magnetic field nullification).
Attention: Figures refer to friction force of two matching magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Extremely neodym field poses a large risk to electronics and pacemakers. These NdFeB products produce a flux that destroys function of digital equipment. Notice: the unseen radiation penetrates the body and plastic. Special caution must be exercised by people with cochlear implants and drug dispensers. Influence will be felt by: mechanical watches, remotes, membranes, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

100 mm	95.87 km/h (26.63 m/s)	1.81 J

NdFeB products are delicate – a collision with steel can result in shattering. Watch the impact speed – a magnet released freely turns into a projectile. Striking energy can cause material chips or injury to skin. Be sure to control the product during bringing near metal so it doesn't hit violently against the steel surface. A collision at high speed ends with a crack of the neodymium. Use safety goggles when working with powerful specimens.

Corrosion warning: Standard nickel requires drying after every contact with moisture; lack of maintenance will lead to rust spots.

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. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Power loss vs temp

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

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

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

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 offered product is a very strong cylindrical magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø12x6 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 12x6 / N38 model 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. 4.60 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

This model is created for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient filters, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 45.09 N with a weight of only 5.09 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.

Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional component. To ensure stability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Grade N38 is the most popular standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø12x6), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf 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 lifting capacity 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 protects the surface 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. 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their pulling strength, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

They do not lose strength, even over nearly 10 years – the drop in lifting capacity is only ~1% (theoretically),
They show high resistance to demagnetization induced by external field influence,
The use of an refined layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
In view of the ability of accurate molding and customization to custom projects, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a variety of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are commonly used in data components, electromotive mechanisms, medical equipment, also modern systems.
Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Cons

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets and ways of using them

At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, in case of application outdoors
Limited ability of creating nuts in the magnet and complicated shapes - preferred is a housing - mounting mechanism.
Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
Due to expensive raw materials, their price is higher than average,

Holding force characteristics

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?

Holding force of 4.60 kg is a result of laboratory testing executed under standard conditions:

using a plate made of low-carbon steel, acting as a circuit closing element
with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
with a plane perfectly flat
with direct contact (no paint)
during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
in stable room temperature

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

During everyday use, the actual holding force is determined by many variables, listed from the most important:

Clearance – existence of foreign body (paint, tape, gap) acts as an insulator, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
Direction of force – highest force is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
Material composition – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
Temperature influence – hot environment weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity was assessed using a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

H&S for magnets

Fragile material

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

GPS and phone interference

A powerful magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of compasses in phones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets near a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.

Dust is flammable

Dust created during cutting of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Demagnetization risk

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. Damage is permanent.

Handling rules

Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even professionals. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.

Electronic devices

Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Bone fractures

Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.

Warning for allergy sufferers

Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If redness happens, cease handling magnets and use protective gear.

Do not give to children

Always keep magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is high, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are tragic.

Life threat

People with a heart stimulator must keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.
