1. Shear force

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only ~20% of its nominal pull.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

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

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.

Field Strength

View more offers

The offered product is a very strong rod magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø25x5 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 25x5 / N38AH component boasts high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 7.29 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 71.47 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 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 stability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. 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 in continuous sale in our warehouse.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 25 mm and height 5 mm. The value of 71.47 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 18.41 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it 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. 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.

Strengths

Besides their remarkable pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • They have excellent resistance to magnetism drop when exposed to opposing magnetic fields,
  • By using a shiny layer of nickel, the element has an aesthetic look,
  • Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Thanks to freedom in designing and the capacity to adapt to unusual requirements,
  • Key role in advanced technology sectors – they are used in HDD drives, motor assemblies, medical equipment, as well as complex engineering applications.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • NdFeB magnets lose power 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
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited ability of creating nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is cover - magnet mounting.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat it depends on?

Holding force of 7.29 kg is a result of laboratory testing performed under standard conditions:
  • on a plate made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
  • possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with a plane cleaned and smooth
  • without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

Effective lifting capacity is affected by specific conditions, including (from most important):
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), because even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Plate thickness – too thin steel causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the flux to be escaped into the air.
  • Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may attract less.
  • Surface finish – full contact is possible only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment weakens pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Warning for allergy sufferers

Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, prevent touching magnets with bare hands and choose encased magnets.

Do not overheat magnets

Avoid heat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Electronic hazard

Do not bring magnets near a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetism can destroy these devices and wipe information from cards.

Powerful field

Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Dust is flammable

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Compass and GPS

Note: rare earth magnets generate a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, device, and GPS.

Keep away from children

NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of a few magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.

Serious injuries

Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand between two strong magnets.

Shattering risk

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

Life threat

People with a pacemaker must maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the functioning of the implant.

Warning! Learn more about risks in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
