1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*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) = 0.57

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.

Other deals

The offered product is an incredibly powerful cylinder magnet, manufactured from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø25x12 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 25x12 / N38 component boasts high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 19.60 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in modeling, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 192.25 N with a weight of only 44.18 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the best method is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 25.1 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 high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are strong enough for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø25x12), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our warehouse.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø25x12 mm, which, at a weight of 44.18 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 19.60 kg (force ~192.25 N), which, with such defined 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.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 12 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their superior magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose strength, even after approximately 10 years – the drop in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under close interference source,
  • In other words, due to the reflective finish of gold, the element becomes visually attractive,
  • Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which increases force concentration,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of individual creating as well as optimizing to individual requirements,
  • Universal use in innovative solutions – they are used in HDD drives, motor assemblies, advanced medical instruments, as well as multitasking production systems.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in small dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • We suggest cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?

Holding force of 19.60 kg is a measurement result performed under the following configuration:
  • using a sheet made of mild steel, acting as a circuit closing element
  • whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
  • with a surface perfectly flat
  • with zero gap (without impurities)
  • under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

Bear in mind that the working load will differ influenced by elements below, in order of importance:
  • Clearance – existence of foreign body (paint, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which reduces power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel type – mild steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Rough texture create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
  • Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Do not give to children

Absolutely keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.

Warning for heart patients

Patients with a heart stimulator have to keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.

Protect data

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

Phone sensors

Navigation devices and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.

Do not drill into magnets

Powder generated during cutting of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.

Protective goggles

Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Thermal limits

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its properties and strength.

Respect the power

Use magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and respect their power.

Avoid contact if allergic

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid direct skin contact or select encased magnets.

Pinching danger

Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
