1. Shear force

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

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

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

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

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

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 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.

The offered product is a very strong cylinder magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø14.9x10 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item features high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 7.60 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring 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 74.57 N with a weight of only 13.08 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this precision component. 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.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest 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 impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 7.60 kg (force ~74.57 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.
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • Their magnetic field is maintained, and after approximately ten years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external field influence,
  • The use of an metallic finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
  • They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to modularity in constructing and the capacity to adapt to specific needs,
  • Huge importance in future technologies – they are utilized in hard drives, motor assemblies, precision medical tools, also other advanced devices.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Cons

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets and proposals for their use:
  • They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • Due to limitations in creating threads and complex forms in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic holder.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Lifting parameters

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat affects it?

The specified lifting capacity refers to the limit force, measured under laboratory conditions, meaning:
  • using a plate made of mild steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
  • whose transverse dimension is min. 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
  • during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at ambient temperature room level

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

It is worth knowing that the working load may be lower influenced by the following factors, starting with the most relevant:
  • Space between surfaces – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Angle of force application – maximum parameter is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is usually many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Steel grade – the best choice is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was determined using a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, in contrast under shearing force 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
Threat to electronics

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.

Operating temperature

Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you require operation above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Shattering risk

Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Avoid contact if allergic

Certain individuals experience a sensitization to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching can result in an allergic reaction. We strongly advise use protective gloves.

Flammability

Mechanical processing of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Crushing force

Watch your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!

GPS Danger

An intense magnetic field interferes with the functioning of compasses in smartphones and navigation systems. Keep magnets close to a device to prevent breaking the sensors.

Handling guide

Handle magnets consciously. Their huge power can surprise even experienced users. Be vigilant and respect their force.

Implant safety

Health Alert: Strong magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Danger to the youngest

Absolutely store magnets away from children. Choking hazard is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
