Corrosion warning: Remember to wipe the magnet thoroughly after removing it from water and apply a protective layer (e.g., oil) to avoid corrosion.
1. Shear force

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely weakens the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

*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) = 0.16

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.

Magnetic Induction

Other products

The offered product is a very strong cylinder magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø25x2.5 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 25x2.5 / N38 model features high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 2.55 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 25.03 N with a weight of only 9.2 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics 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 precision component. To ensure stability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø25x2.5), 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 Ø25x2.5 mm, which, at a weight of 9.2 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The value of 25.03 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 9.2 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 2.5 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their superior power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • Their strength is maintained, and after approximately ten years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by presence of other magnetic fields,
  • Thanks to the shimmering finish, the surface of nickel, gold-plated, or silver gives an visually attractive appearance,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a strong magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to modularity in forming and the ability to adapt to unusual requirements,
  • Universal use in future technologies – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, motor assemblies, medical devices, as well as other advanced devices.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions

Cons

Cons of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a special holder, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their 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, as well as 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 when using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • We suggest casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Lifting parameters

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat affects it?

The force parameter is a measurement result conducted under specific, ideal conditions:
  • using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
  • with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
  • with an ideally smooth touching surface
  • without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
  • for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at ambient temperature room level

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

It is worth knowing that the working load may be lower influenced by the following factors, starting with the most relevant:
  • Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), as even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
  • Load vector – highest force is available only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of generating force.
  • Metal type – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Heat – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they lose power, and at low temperatures 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, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

H&S for magnets
Impact on smartphones

Note: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts precision electronics. Keep a separation from your mobile, device, and GPS.

Powerful field

Before use, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.

Health Danger

Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.

Flammability

Powder created during machining of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Heat warning

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Material brittleness

Despite the nickel coating, the material is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

No play value

Adult use only. Small elements pose a choking risk, causing serious injuries. Store away from kids and pets.

Finger safety

Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances put your hand between two attracting surfaces.

Safe distance

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Nickel allergy

A percentage of the population experience a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in skin redness. We suggest use safety gloves.
