1. Sliding resistance

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

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits 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) = 0.55

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.

Magnet pull force

Magnetic Induction

Other products

The presented product is a very strong cylinder magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø21.9x10 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 14.65 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient filters, where maximum induction 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 miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, 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 do not react with the nickel coating 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 even stronger 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 value of 143.71 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 28.25 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder 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.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They do not lose strength, even during around 10 years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss due to opposing magnetic fields,
  • Thanks to the shimmering finish, the plating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver-plated gives an visually attractive appearance,
  • Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet remains extremely intense,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of exact shaping and optimizing to defined applications,
  • Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they serve a role in mass storage devices, drive modules, precision medical tools, as well as modern systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.
  • At strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength 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
  • They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited ability of creating threads in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is a housing - magnet mounting.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat it depends on?

Breakaway force is the result of a measurement for ideal contact conditions, taking into account:
  • with the application of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
  • with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
  • for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at temperature room level

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

Effective lifting capacity is influenced by working environment parameters, including (from most important):
  • Distance – existence of any layer (rust, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of generating force.
  • Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content lower magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Plate texture – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Respect the power

Be careful. Rare earth magnets attract from a long distance and connect with huge force, often faster than you can move away.

Danger to pacemakers

People with a heart stimulator should maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.

GPS Danger

A strong magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets near a device to prevent damaging the sensors.

Machining danger

Powder produced during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Magnetic media

Avoid bringing magnets close to a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

This is not a toy

Absolutely store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are life-threatening.

Hand protection

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Power loss in heat

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Allergy Warning

Certain individuals suffer from a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching can result in an allergic reaction. We strongly advise wear protective gloves.

Material brittleness

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.
