1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its max power.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Thermal stability

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.31

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.

The offered product is an exceptionally strong cylindrical magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø14x3 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 14x3 / N38 component is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 2.76 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Moreover, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 27.06 N with a weight of only 3.46 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 immediate cracking of this precision component. To ensure stability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for the majority of applications in modeling and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø14x3), 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 3 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 2.76 kg (force ~27.06 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high grade 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 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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

Besides their immense magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They retain magnetic properties for around ten years – the loss is just ~1% (according to analyses),
  • Magnets effectively resist against loss of magnetization caused by external fields,
  • A magnet with a metallic nickel surface looks better,
  • Magnets exhibit exceptionally strong magnetic induction on the working surface,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of detailed forming as well as adjusting to precise needs,
  • Universal use in future technologies – they are commonly used in HDD drives, motor assemblies, medical equipment, and multitasking production systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in force. 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
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We suggest cover - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex forms.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these magnets can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The lifting capacity listed is a measurement result performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • with the contact of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an ground contact surface
  • with zero gap (no coatings)
  • for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In practice, the actual holding force is determined by many variables, ranked from the most important:
  • Space between surfaces – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) diminishes the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Angle of force application – highest force is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding 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.
  • Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

H&S for magnets
Warning for heart patients

For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Do not underestimate power

Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Skin irritation risks

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation appears, cease handling magnets and wear gloves.

Mechanical processing

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Eye protection

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching shards into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Safe distance

Equipment safety: Strong magnets can ruin payment cards and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).

Threat to navigation

Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.

Pinching danger

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!

Permanent damage

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

This is not a toy

Only for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from kids and pets.
