1. Vertical hold

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

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.29

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.

Other offers

The presented product is an incredibly powerful rod magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø25x5 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 25x5 / N38 component boasts high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 7.98 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building electric motors, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient filters, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 78.25 N with a weight of only 18.41 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, 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.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø25x5), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø25x5 mm, which, at a weight of 18.41 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 7.98 kg (force ~78.25 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high grade of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against external factors, 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 25 mm. 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.

Pros as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • Their strength is maintained, and after approximately ten years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • In other words, due to the shiny layer of nickel, the element gains a professional look,
  • They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to flexibility in shaping and the capacity to modify to individual projects,
  • Wide application in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, drive modules, medical equipment, also technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (a factor is the shape as well as dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
  • 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 and corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in creating threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mechanism.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Pull force analysis

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditionswhat it depends on?

Holding force of 7.98 kg is a result of laboratory testing conducted under standard conditions:
  • with the contact of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
  • with a plane cleaned and smooth
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

In real-world applications, the real power depends on many variables, listed from crucial:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined by applying a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Sensitization to coating

A percentage of the population experience a sensitization to nickel, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Extended handling may cause a rash. We recommend wear safety gloves.

Cards and drives

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, timepieces).

Fire warning

Fire warning: Neodymium dust is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Conscious usage

Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Hand protection

Large magnets can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Never place your hand between two strong magnets.

ICD Warning

People with a heart stimulator must keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the functioning of the life-saving device.

Adults only

NdFeB magnets are not toys. Accidental ingestion of a few magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a critical condition and necessitates immediate surgery.

Magnetic interference

GPS units and smartphones are extremely susceptible to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Material brittleness

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets leads to them shattering into small pieces.

Do not overheat magnets

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its magnetic structure and strength.
