1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds just a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Thermal stability

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.57

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.

The presented product is a very strong cylindrical magnet, made from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø25x12 mm, guarantees optimal power. This specific item is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 19.60 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building electric motors, advanced sensors, and efficient filters, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 192.25 N with a weight of only 44.18 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this precision component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are strong enough for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest 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 value of 192.25 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 44.18 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet 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 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.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

Apart from their strong holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (based on calculations),
  • Neodymium magnets remain extremely resistant to demagnetization caused by external field sources,
  • A magnet with a metallic nickel surface looks better,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a powerful magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
  • 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...
  • Considering the ability of flexible molding and adaptation to custom requirements, magnetic components can be produced in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which increases their versatility,
  • Key role in high-tech industry – they serve a role in computer drives, electric motors, diagnostic systems, as well as modern systems.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Weaknesses

Cons of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend 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 power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power 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
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • We suggest cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
  • With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Holding force characteristics

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?

Information about lifting capacity was determined for optimal configuration, assuming:
  • with the application of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • with a plane free of scratches
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • in neutral thermal conditions

Key elements affecting lifting force

Bear in mind that the application force may be lower subject to the following factors, starting with the most relevant:
  • Gap (between the magnet and the metal), because even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
  • Force direction – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Steel thickness – too thin sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be wasted into the air.
  • Material type – the best choice is pure iron steel. Cast iron may attract less.
  • Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Avoid contact if allergic

It is widely known that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact or opt for encased magnets.

Handling guide

Handle magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can shock even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their power.

Crushing risk

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!

This is not a toy

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

Threat to electronics

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, timepieces).

Permanent damage

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.

Shattering risk

Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Warning for heart patients

Patients with a pacemaker should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.

Phone sensors

An intense magnetic field disrupts the operation of compasses in smartphones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets near a smartphone to prevent breaking the sensors.

Dust explosion hazard

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
