1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just ~20% of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically reduces the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.44

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.

View more deals

The offered product is an incredibly powerful cylindrical magnet, made from durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø29.9x10 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 29.9x10 / N38 model boasts high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 21.50 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, 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 electric motors, advanced sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 210.90 N with a weight of only 52.66 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this professional component. To ensure long-term durability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø29.9x10), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 29.9 mm and height 10 mm. The value of 210.90 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 52.66 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 10 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Strengths and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Pros

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • Their strength is durable, and after around ten years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They do not lose their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
  • By covering with a smooth layer of silver, the element has an aesthetic look,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a intense magnetic field – this is a key feature,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of precise forming and optimizing to precise requirements,
  • Significant place in electronics industry – they are utilized in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, precision medical tools, also other advanced devices.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mount.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat contributes to it?

The specified lifting capacity refers to the peak performance, recorded under optimal environment, specifically:
  • with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • with a thickness minimum 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at ambient temperature room level

What influences lifting capacity in practice

In real-world applications, the actual lifting capacity is determined by several key aspects, ranked from most significant:
  • Clearance – existence of foreign body (paint, dirt, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet holds significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of generating force.
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening 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 the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Warnings
Health Danger

Individuals with a heart stimulator should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the functioning of the implant.

This is not a toy

Strictly keep magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.

Nickel allergy

Allergy Notice: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If redness appears, cease handling magnets and use protective gear.

Magnet fragility

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

Electronic hazard

Device Safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Phone sensors

Remember: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Maintain a separation from your mobile, device, and GPS.

Immense force

Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can react.

Demagnetization risk

Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose magnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Machining danger

Machining of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Crushing risk

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so great that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
