1. Wall mount (shear)

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically reduces the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.61

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 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.

Pulling force


Magnetic Induction

Other products

This product is an incredibly powerful cylindrical magnet, manufactured from durable NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø18.9x10 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 18.9x10 / N38 model features an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 11.68 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in DIY projects, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 114.54 N with a weight of only 21.04 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional component. To ensure stability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are strong enough for the majority of applications in automation and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø18.9x10), 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 Ø18.9x10 mm, which, at a weight of 21.04 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 11.68 kg (force ~114.54 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high power 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 18.9 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.

Pros

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They do not lose power, even over approximately ten years – the drop in lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Neodymium magnets are distinguished by extremely resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by magnetic disturbances,
  • A magnet with a metallic nickel surface looks better,
  • Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of accurate forming and adapting to complex needs,
  • Fundamental importance in future technologies – they are commonly used in computer drives, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures them against impacts but also increases their durability
  • NdFeB magnets lose force when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (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
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mount.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Maximum magnetic pulling forcewhat it depends on?

Breakaway force was determined for the most favorable conditions, assuming:
  • using a base made of low-carbon steel, serving as a circuit closing element
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • with a surface cleaned and smooth
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

What influences lifting capacity in practice

Holding efficiency is influenced by specific conditions, including (from priority):
  • Gap (between the magnet and the metal), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
  • Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Plate thickness – insufficiently thick plate does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be lost into the air.
  • Plate material – mild steel attracts best. Alloy steels decrease magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Handling guide

Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and connect with huge force, often quicker than you can react.

Swallowing risk

Only for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, leading to severe trauma. Keep away from children and animals.

Finger safety

Risk of injury: The attraction force is so immense that it can result in hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Operating temperature

Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Medical interference

Health Alert: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.

Allergic reactions

Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and select coated magnets.

Safe distance

Data protection: Strong magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Flammability

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Protective goggles

Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

Threat to navigation

Note: neodymium magnets generate a field that disrupts precision electronics. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and navigation systems.
