1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 material, the safety limit 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.

This product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø15x10 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 15x10 / N38 component is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 7.70 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Moreover, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 75.55 N with a weight of only 13.25 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and operational stability. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø15x10), 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 15 mm and height 10 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 7.70 kg (force ~75.55 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high grade of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 10 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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 and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their pulling strength, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (based on calculations),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • Thanks to the smooth finish, the surface of nickel, gold, or silver-plated gives an aesthetic appearance,
  • Magnets have exceptionally strong magnetic induction on the surface,
  • 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 constructing and the capacity to modify to complex applications,
  • Fundamental importance in high-tech industry – they are used in magnetic memories, electromotive mechanisms, medical equipment, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore when using outdoors, we advise using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Due to limitations in producing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mechanism.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small elements of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat contributes to it?

The specified lifting capacity represents the peak performance, recorded under optimal environment, namely:
  • with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
  • whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
  • with a plane perfectly flat
  • with zero gap (without impurities)
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

What influences lifting capacity in practice

In practice, the actual lifting capacity depends on many variables, presented from crucial:
  • Space between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) drastically reduces the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of generating force.
  • Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
  • Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Do not underestimate power

Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Fire risk

Powder produced during cutting of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Crushing risk

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Warning for allergy sufferers

Some people have a sensitization to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling might lead to a rash. We suggest wear safety gloves.

Eye protection

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Medical implants

Individuals with a ICD must maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the operation of the implant.

Phone sensors

A strong magnetic field disrupts the functioning of compasses in smartphones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets near a device to avoid breaking the sensors.

Choking Hazard

Neodymium magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of multiple magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which poses a critical condition and necessitates urgent medical intervention.

Data carriers

Intense magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Maximum temperature

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.
