1. Wall mount (shear)

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

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Thermal stability

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

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

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

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.

Magnet pull force


Magnetic Induction

Other offers

This product is an incredibly powerful cylinder magnet, produced from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø24x6 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 24x6 / N38 component is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 9.98 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in DIY projects, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 97.88 N with a weight of only 20.36 g, this rod 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 stability in industry, anaerobic resins 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 industrial neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and operational stability. 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 available off-the-shelf in our store.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø24x6 mm, which, at a weight of 20.36 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 9.98 kg (force ~97.88 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it 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. 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 and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Besides their durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They do not lose strength, even after approximately ten years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (theoretically),
  • They show high resistance to demagnetization induced by external field influence,
  • By covering with a shiny coating of silver, the element acquires an elegant look,
  • Magnets exhibit impressive magnetic induction on the outer layer,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to the possibility of flexible shaping and adaptation to unique requirements, NdFeB magnets can be produced in a wide range of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
  • Huge importance in advanced technology sectors – they find application in hard drives, electric drive systems, diagnostic systems, and modern systems.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited possibility of creating nuts in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is cover - magnet mounting.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Pull force analysis

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnetwhat affects it?

The declared magnet strength refers to the maximum value, measured under optimal environment, namely:
  • using a base made of low-carbon steel, serving as a magnetic yoke
  • whose thickness reaches at least 10 mm
  • with an ideally smooth touching surface
  • with zero gap (no paint)
  • during pulling in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

In real-world applications, the actual holding force is determined by a number of factors, listed from the most important:
  • Gap between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) drastically reduces the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • 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.
  • Metal type – not every steel reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
  • Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Dust explosion hazard

Powder created during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.

Skin irritation risks

A percentage of the population experience a sensitization to nickel, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching might lead to skin redness. We strongly advise use protective gloves.

Material brittleness

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

Serious injuries

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.

Electronic devices

Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Threat to navigation

A powerful magnetic field negatively affects the operation of magnetometers in phones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets close to a device to avoid damaging the sensors.

Caution required

Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.

Demagnetization risk

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you require resistance above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Swallowing risk

Always store magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.

Warning for heart patients

Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt electronics. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Attention! Details about hazards in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
