1. Shear force

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

2. Steel saturation

*Thin metal sheet (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 Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.22

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.

Other offers

The presented product is a very strong rod magnet, produced from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø14x2 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 14x2 / N38 model features an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 1.48 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in DIY projects, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 14.51 N with a weight of only 2.31 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this precision component. To ensure stability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are suitable for the majority 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 (Ø14x2), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 14 mm and height 2 mm. The value of 14.51 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 2.31 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 14 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their pulling strength, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They retain attractive force for nearly 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (based on simulations),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
  • Thanks to the elegant finish, the layer of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver-plated gives an elegant appearance,
  • They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to freedom in forming and the capacity to adapt to client solutions,
  • Wide application in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in data components, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, also other advanced devices.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated forms in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these magnets are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?

Holding force of 1.48 kg is a theoretical maximum value conducted under the following configuration:
  • with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • with an ground contact surface
  • without any air gap between the magnet and steel
  • under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

In real-world applications, the actual lifting capacity is determined by several key aspects, listed from crucial:
  • Distance – the presence of any layer (rust, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Angle of force application – highest force is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is typically many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of generating force.
  • Material composition – not every steel reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the plate, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, however under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

H&S for magnets
Data carriers

Powerful magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.

Shattering risk

Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Medical interference

People with a ICD have to maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.

Permanent damage

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Fire risk

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Handling rules

Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even professionals. Stay alert and do not underestimate their power.

Impact on smartphones

GPS units and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.

Physical harm

Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Nickel allergy

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction happens, cease handling magnets and wear gloves.

Swallowing risk

Product intended for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to intestinal necrosis. Store away from kids and pets.
