Pulling power drops drastically per each millimeter of spacing. Note that even the smallest gap (e.g., contamination, varnish, veneer) significantly reduces the pull force. Magnets work most effectively at the point of direct contact; air break kills the force. Notice how rapidly the parameters drop, when the magnet does not touch directly to the metal substrate. When designing the assembly, discard redundant distances.

The following data presents the estimated weight limit needed to cause the shifting of the magnet down along a upright steel wall (assuming standard friction coefficient). This value varies with the distance between the magnet and the surface.

Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.59 kg / 1.31 pounds 594.0 g / 5.8 N

When mounting a magnet on a upright surface (e.g., a board), it you can count on barely about 1/5 of its maximum pull force. Gravity and a weak degree of grip influence the fact that holders move down easier than they pull off. Designing a hanger? Remember that the sliding force is noticeably lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a slippery surface, the holder will give way down under a noticeably lighter weight. Utilizing a rubberized pad can drastically raise the stability.

A thin metal plate is not enough to absorb the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the magnet. Should you mount a strong magnet to a thin surface, the flux will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To achieve full efficiency of this neodymium's potential, you require a sufficiently solid piece of metal. The saturation phenomenon causes that on sheet metal structures (e.g., car bodies), the product holds weaker. We advise picking the steel cross-section based on the following data.

Ordinary NdFeB products irreversibly lose strength above the temperature limit. Watch out for overheating – heat can irreversibly demagnetize this product. As the temperature rises, the neodymium's force briefly decreases. Refrain from using this magnet close to ovens higher than its safe range. Exceeding the critical threshold will lead to permanent loss of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Heat tolerance is determined by both grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Low-profile magnets (low permeance coefficient) risk losing magnetic properties at lower temperatures than taller cylinders. The danger warning in the table signals permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two magnets interact from a much further distance than a magnet and sheet setup. The connection of magnet-to-magnet produces a massive flux and a wider radius of action. Designing a strong closure? Apply two magnets instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Be careful that when attracting two neodymiums, the impact force is massive. The repulsion force is slightly lower than the connection force, but still impressive.
*The magnetic induction between like poles drops to ~0 Gs at the geometric center between the magnets (resulting from vector opposition).
Attention: Figures demonstrate sliding force of two matching magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Powerful magnet radiation is a real danger to electronics and pacemakers. These magnets generate a flux that destroys function of digital equipment. Remember: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and glass. Exceptional care must be taken by people with hearing aids and drug dispensers. Also at risk are: mechanical watches, remotes, speakers, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Impact energy (kinetic energy) - warning
MW 16x3 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	26.50 km/h (7.36 m/s)	0.12 J
30 mm	44.78 km/h (12.44 m/s)	0.35 J
50 mm	57.81 km/h (16.06 m/s)	0.58 J
100 mm	81.75 km/h (22.71 m/s)	1.17 J

Magnetic elements are very brittle – a violent impact against metal causes immediate chipping. Control the attraction moment – a magnet released freely becomes dangerous. Kinetic force can destroy the magnet or painful pinches to skin. Always hold the magnet during mounting so it doesn't slam with momentum against the metal. A collision at high speed means shattering of the magnet. Wear eye protection when working with large magnets.

Contrary to myths, water does not block the magnetic field. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.27

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 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 offered product is an incredibly powerful rod magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø16x3 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 16x3 / N38 component features high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 2.97 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard 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 pull force of 29.11 N with a weight of only 4.52 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.

Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, the best method is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 16.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.

Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and operational stability. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø16x3), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our store.

This model is characterized by dimensions Ø16x3 mm, which, at a weight of 4.52 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 2.97 kg (force ~29.11 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. 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 16 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.

Pros and cons of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

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

They have stable power, and over more than ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
They do not lose their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
Thanks to the shiny finish, the plating of nickel, gold, or silver gives an aesthetic appearance,
They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
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...
Thanks to modularity in forming and the ability to customize to specific needs,
Significant place in innovative solutions – they serve a role in hard drives, electromotive mechanisms, medical devices, and multitasking production systems.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions

Weaknesses

Cons of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals

To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, 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.
Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore during using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
Limited ability of producing nuts in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is a housing - mounting mechanism.
Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what affects it?

Breakaway force was defined for the most favorable conditions, including:

with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
with a thickness minimum 10 mm
with a plane free of scratches
with total lack of distance (no impurities)
during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
at temperature room level

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

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

Distance (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
Direction of force – maximum parameter is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the plate is usually several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels lower magnetic properties and holding force.
Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.

H&S for magnets

Product not for children

Neodymium magnets are not toys. Eating a few magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a severe health hazard and requires immediate surgery.

Avoid contact if allergic

Certain individuals have a sensitization to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact might lead to skin redness. We strongly advise use safety gloves.

Mechanical processing

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Keep away from electronics

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

Safe operation

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

Bone fractures

Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Operating temperature

Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Magnetic media

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.

Warning for heart patients

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Fragile material

Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets leads to them shattering into shards.
