Pulling power drops significantly with every subsequent millimeter of gap. Remember that even a microscopic distance (e.g., dirt, paint, rust) strongly reduces the pull force. Magnets work optimally at the point of direct contact; gap kills the power. See how rapidly the parameters fall, when the product does not touch tightly to the steel surface. When designing the arrangement, eliminate redundant distances.

The table below calculates the estimated force sufficient to start the sliding of the magnet downwards on a upright steel wall (assuming standard friction). This value is a function of the air gap between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (shearing) - vertical pull
MW 15x5 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	1.62 kg / 3.56 pounds 1617.0 g / 15.9 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	1.08 kg / 2.38 pounds 1078.0 g / 10.6 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.54 kg / 1.19 pounds 539.0 g / 5.3 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	2.70 kg / 5.94 pounds 2695.0 g / 26.4 N

When mounting a element on a vertical surface (e.g., a car body), it you can count on just about 20%-30% of its nominal power. Gravity as well as a weak degree of grip influence the fact that magnets slide down easier than they pull off. Want to create a hanger? Remember that the shear force is noticeably lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a smooth steel, the holder will give way down under a noticeably lighter cargo. Utilizing a rubberized layer can effectively increase the grip.

3 mm	75%	4.04 kg / 8.91 pounds 4042.5 g / 39.7 N
5 mm	100%	5.39 kg / 11.88 pounds 5390.0 g / 52.9 N
10 mm	100%	5.39 kg / 11.88 pounds 5390.0 g / 52.9 N
11 mm	100%	5.39 kg / 11.88 pounds 5390.0 g / 52.9 N
12 mm	100%	5.39 kg / 11.88 pounds 5390.0 g / 52.9 N

A too thin steel is not enough to conduct the entire magnetic field, which squanders power of the magnet. Should you install a neodymium to a thin surface, the field will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize 100% of this neodymium's potential, you require a sufficiently solid piece of steel. The saturation phenomenon means that on thin elements (e.g., car bodies), the product works worse. We suggest choosing the steel thickness based on the following data.

Table 5: Thermal resistance (stability) - resistance threshold
MW 15x5 / N38

Ambient temp. (°C)	Power loss	Remaining pull (kg/lbs/g/N)	Status
20 °C	0.0%	5.39 kg / 11.88 pounds 5390.0 g / 52.9 N	OK
40 °C	-2.2%	5.27 kg / 11.62 pounds 5271.4 g / 51.7 N	OK
60 °C	-4.4%	5.15 kg / 11.36 pounds 5152.8 g / 50.5 N
80 °C	-6.6%	5.03 kg / 11.10 pounds 5034.3 g / 49.4 N
100 °C	-28.8%	3.84 kg / 8.46 pounds 3837.7 g / 37.6 N

Classic neodymiums change their properties strength past the thermal threshold. Protect against heat – heat can permanently damage this magnet. With increasing heat, the magnet's power briefly lowers. Refrain from using this magnet close to ovens higher than its operating temperature limit. Too high temperature will result in destruction of magnetic properties.

*Engineering note: Temperature resistance is determined by both grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Low-profile magnets (low permeance coefficient) are more susceptible to demagnetization at lower temperatures than taller cylinders. Red status in the table signals permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two magnets interact from a wider radius than a magnet and steel combination. Such a system of two magnets produces a massive flux and a further horizon of action. Designing a strong closure? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a steel. Exercise caution that when connecting a pair of magnets, the impact force is extreme. The repulsion force is a bit weaker than the connection force, but still large.
*The magnetic induction in repulsion mode drops to ~0 Gs at the midpoint of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
Attention: Calculations refer to friction force of two same neodymium magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a large risk to IT equipment and medical implants. These NdFeB products produce a flux that destroys function of sensitive medical devices. Notice: the unseen radiation acts through matter and plastic. Increased vigilance must be taken by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. The risk also applies to: automatic timepieces, car keys, membranes, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or sensitive navigation tools.

Table 8: Dynamics (cracking risk) - warning
MW 15x5 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	29.27 km/h (8.13 m/s)	0.22 J
30 mm	49.81 km/h (13.84 m/s)	0.63 J
50 mm	64.30 km/h (17.86 m/s)	1.06 J
100 mm	90.93 km/h (25.26 m/s)	2.12 J

NdFeB products are very brittle – a violent impact against metal can result in shattering. Control the attraction moment – a magnet released freely speeds with massive force. Impact energy can cause material chips or injury to fingers. Be sure to control the product during mounting so it doesn't slam with momentum against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h means shattering of the magnet. Wear eye protection when playing with powerful specimens.

Corrosion warning: Remember to wipe the magnet thoroughly after removing it from water and apply a protective layer (e.g., oil) to avoid corrosion.

Contrary to myths, water does not block the magnetic field. Note: for permanent underwater work, we recommend magnets with an anti-corrosive (epoxy) coating.

1. Vertical hold

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just ~20% of its nominal pull.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly weakens the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.44

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 P_c (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 P_c 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 presented product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø15x5 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 15x5 / N38 model features high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 5.39 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Moreover, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

This model is created for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 52.83 N with a weight of only 6.63 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices 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 precision component. To ensure long-term durability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and operational stability. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø15x5), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our store.

This model is characterized by dimensions Ø15x5 mm, which, at a weight of 6.63 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 5.39 kg (force ~52.83 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.

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 15 mm. Such an arrangement is standard 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their consistent magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:

They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external fields,
A magnet with a smooth nickel surface has an effective appearance,
Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which increases force concentration,
Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
Due to the possibility of precise shaping and customization to individualized needs, NdFeB magnets can be manufactured in a variety of forms and dimensions, which amplifies use scope,
Wide application in modern technologies – they find application in magnetic memories, electric motors, medical devices, as well as multitasking production systems.
Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Cons

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

At strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore while using outdoors, we suggest using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic mount.
Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small components of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Holding force characteristics

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

Magnet power is the result of a measurement for optimal configuration, assuming:

using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
with a thickness minimum 10 mm
with an ground touching surface
with total lack of distance (without paint)
for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
in temp. approx. 20°C

Key elements affecting lifting force

Please note that the magnet holding may be lower subject to elements below, in order of importance:

Distance (between the magnet and the plate), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
Surface quality – the more even the plate, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets

Precision electronics

Note: neodymium magnets produce a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Maintain a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.

Machining danger

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

Power loss in heat

Control the heat. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and pulling force.

Physical harm

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

Allergy Warning

Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, refrain from direct skin contact and choose versions in plastic housing.

Warning for heart patients

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

Protect data

Intense magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.

Handling guide

Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.

Risk of cracking

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets will cause them cracking into shards.

No play value

Always keep magnets away from children. Choking hazard is high, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
