1. Vertical hold

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Heat tolerance

*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.

Field Strength

Other proposals

The presented product is an incredibly powerful cylindrical magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø14x2 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 14x2 / N38 model features an accuracy of ±0.1mm and industrial 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 warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building electric motors, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 14.50 N with a weight of only 2.31 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the best method is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 14.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel 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 even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø14x2), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our warehouse.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 14 mm and height 2 mm. The value of 14.50 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 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 mm. 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.

Pros

Apart from their superior magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They have stable power, and over more than 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
  • They feature excellent resistance to magnetism drop when exposed to opposing magnetic fields,
  • Thanks to the shiny finish, the coating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver-plated gives an clean appearance,
  • They are known for 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 shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of exact forming and optimizing to atypical requirements,
  • Universal use in modern industrial fields – they find application in computer drives, drive modules, diagnostic systems, also multitasking production systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures 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
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • We recommend cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex forms.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, tiny parts of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price is higher than average,

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what contributes to it?

Holding force of 1.48 kg is a result of laboratory testing executed under standard conditions:
  • with the use of a yoke made of special test steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at standard ambient temperature

Key elements affecting lifting force

Holding efficiency impacted by specific conditions, such as (from most important):
  • Clearance – the presence of any layer (rust, tape, gap) acts as an insulator, which reduces capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Load vector – highest force is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is usually many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of generating force.
  • Steel grade – the best choice is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature reduces magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.

H&S for magnets
Nickel coating and allergies

Some people experience a contact allergy to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact might lead to an allergic reaction. It is best to use safety gloves.

Do not underestimate power

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and connect with huge force, often faster than you can react.

Impact on smartphones

Note: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.

Heat sensitivity

Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its magnetic structure and strength.

Danger to pacemakers

Medical warning: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Protective goggles

Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Mechanical processing

Powder generated during machining of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Serious injuries

Watch your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of massive weight, crushing everything in their path. Be careful!

Swallowing risk

Absolutely store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are life-threatening.

Threat to electronics

Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm.
