1. Shear force

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

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

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

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.

Magnetic Induction

View also offers

The presented product is an extremely powerful rod magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø25x5 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item 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 impressive force (approx. 7.29 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction 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 electronics and wherever every gram matters.
Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 25.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for the majority of applications in automation 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 store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 25 mm and height 5 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 7.29 kg (force ~71.47 N), which, with such compact 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.
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.

Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even during nearly ten years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (theoretically),
  • They do not lose their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • The use of an elegant finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a strong magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to flexibility in designing and the capacity to modify to specific needs,
  • Wide application in high-tech industry – they serve a role in data components, brushless drives, diagnostic systems, also other advanced devices.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. 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
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Limited ability of producing threads in the magnet and complicated shapes - recommended is a housing - mounting mechanism.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small elements of these devices can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Pull force analysis

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditionswhat contributes to it?

The specified lifting capacity concerns the maximum value, measured under laboratory conditions, meaning:
  • using a sheet made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • with an ground contact surface
  • with total lack of distance (without paint)
  • for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

In real-world applications, the actual lifting capacity results from several key aspects, presented from crucial:
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), because even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
  • Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is usually many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Plate thickness – too thin sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
  • Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Smoothness – full contact is possible only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, reducing force.
  • Temperature – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Permanent damage

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

Implant safety

Warning for patients: Powerful magnets affect electronics. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.

Keep away from electronics

GPS units and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can ruin the internal compass in your phone.

Metal Allergy

Studies show that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from direct skin contact and choose coated magnets.

Risk of cracking

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.

Flammability

Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Caution required

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

Bone fractures

Large magnets can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not place your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.

Protect data

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

Swallowing risk

Strictly store magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
