1. Vertical hold

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

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Power loss vs temp

*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.55

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.

Magnetic Induction

Other products

The offered product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, produced from modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø21.9x10 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 21.9x10 / N38 model boasts 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. 14.65 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building electric motors, advanced sensors, and efficient filters, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 143.71 N with a weight of only 28.25 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this professional component. To ensure long-term durability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø21.9x10), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 21.9 mm and height 10 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 14.65 kg (force ~143.71 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 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 21.9 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They have stable power, and over nearly 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • They are extremely resistant to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
  • The use of an shiny finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet is extremely intense,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Due to the ability of accurate molding and adaptation to specialized needs, NdFeB magnets can be created in a variety of shapes and sizes, which increases their versatility,
  • Huge importance in advanced technology sectors – they are utilized in computer drives, brushless drives, diagnostic systems, as well as modern systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We recommend casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat affects it?

The declared magnet strength concerns the maximum value, measured under laboratory conditions, specifically:
  • on a base made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic flux
  • with a thickness no less than 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • with total lack of distance (without impurities)
  • under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Holding efficiency impacted by specific conditions, including (from priority):
  • Gap between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) drastically reduces the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Base massiveness – insufficiently thick steel does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be lost to the other side.
  • Metal type – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Smoothness – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined by applying a smooth 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 slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Safe operation

Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Medical interference

Life threat: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.

Physical harm

Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, crushing everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Threat to electronics

Data protection: Strong magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Nickel coating and allergies

Allergy Notice: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, cease working with magnets and use protective gear.

Keep away from electronics

Remember: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your phone, tablet, and GPS.

Operating temperature

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Eye protection

Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are fragile like glass. Impact of two magnets leads to them shattering into shards.

Dust is flammable

Machining of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Keep away from children

Strictly store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.
