1. Shear force

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds just ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.35

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.

The presented product is an exceptionally strong cylindrical magnet, manufactured from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø24x6 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 24x6 / N38 model is characterized by a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 9.98 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 97.88 N with a weight of only 20.36 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 24.1 mm) using epoxy glues. 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 popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø24x6), 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 24 mm and height 6 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 9.98 kg (force ~97.88 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 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 24 mm. Such an arrangement is most desirable 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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They do not lose strength, even over around 10 years – the drop in power is only ~1% (theoretically),
  • They maintain their magnetic properties even under close interference source,
  • The use of an metallic finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Possibility of custom shaping and adjusting to defined needs,
  • Huge importance in electronics industry – they are utilized in HDD drives, brushless drives, medical devices, as well as other advanced devices.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a steel housing, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • We suggest a housing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Holding force characteristics

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat it depends on?

The force parameter is a theoretical maximum value performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
  • possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
  • characterized by even structure
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (surface-to-surface)
  • under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
  • at room temperature

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

In real-world applications, the actual holding force results from many variables, presented from crucial:
  • Space between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) drastically reduces the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Direction of force – highest force is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the plate is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Chemical composition of the base – mild steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content lower magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
  • Surface condition – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases force. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

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 load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Compass and GPS

Note: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Keep a safe distance from your mobile, tablet, and GPS.

Crushing risk

Big blocks can crush fingers instantly. Never put your hand between two strong magnets.

Warning for heart patients

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.

Heat warning

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) lose magnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.

Magnet fragility

Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. Wear goggles.

No play value

Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to intestinal necrosis. Keep out of reach of children and animals.

Dust explosion hazard

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Caution required

Use magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can shock even professionals. Stay alert and respect their power.

Electronic hazard

Do not bring magnets close to a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.

Skin irritation risks

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent direct skin contact and choose versions in plastic housing.
