1. Vertical hold

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

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.71

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 Pc (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 Pc 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.

Magnetic Field

Other proposals

This product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø14.9x10 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 14.9x10 / N38 model features high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 7.60 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building electric motors, advanced sensors, and efficient filters, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 74.57 N with a weight of only 13.08 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 14.9.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure stability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets 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 even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø14.9x10), 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 Ø14.9x10 mm, which, at a weight of 13.08 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 7.60 kg (force ~74.57 N), which, with such defined 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 14.9 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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

Besides their remarkable pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They retain magnetic properties for nearly 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
  • Magnets very well protect themselves against loss of magnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
  • In other words, due to the glossy surface of gold, the element looks attractive,
  • Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet is exceptional,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to modularity in constructing and the capacity to modify to client solutions,
  • Universal use in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in HDD drives, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, and complex engineering applications.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Due to limitations in producing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic mechanism.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price exceeds standard values,

Pull force analysis

Maximum magnetic pulling forcewhat it depends on?

Information about lifting capacity is the result of a measurement for the most favorable conditions, including:
  • using a sheet made of mild steel, serving as a circuit closing element
  • possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
  • with an polished touching surface
  • without any clearance between the magnet and steel
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Please note that the working load may be lower influenced by the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Distance (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
  • Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity was assessed using a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Respect the power

Before use, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Serious injuries

Big blocks can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Never put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Shattering risk

Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Nickel coating and allergies

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

Permanent damage

Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Choking Hazard

Adult use only. Small elements pose a choking risk, causing intestinal necrosis. Keep out of reach of children and animals.

Fire warning

Powder generated during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Health Danger

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt electronics. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.

GPS Danger

A powerful magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of compasses in phones and GPS navigation. Do not bring magnets close to a device to prevent breaking the sensors.

Data carriers

Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.

Important! More info about hazards in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
