1. Wall mount (shear)

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

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Power loss vs temp

*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) = 0.45

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.

This product is an exceptionally strong cylinder magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø29x10 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 29x10 / N38 model is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 20.82 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 204.22 N with a weight of only 49.54 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this professional component. 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 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 (Ø29x10), 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 29 mm and height 10 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 20.82 kg (force ~204.22 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 oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet 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.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Besides their remarkable magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external field influence,
  • Thanks to the glossy finish, the coating of nickel, gold, or silver gives an professional appearance,
  • Neodymium magnets ensure maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for action at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of exact creating as well as adapting to complex conditions,
  • Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in computer drives, motor assemblies, medical devices, and industrial machines.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Cons

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • They are prone to damage upon heavy 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 strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power 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
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • We suggest cover - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small components of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Lifting parameters

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

Magnet power is the result of a measurement for optimal configuration, assuming:
  • using a plate made of high-permeability steel, serving as a circuit closing element
  • possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an polished contact surface
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
  • for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at standard ambient temperature

What influences lifting capacity in practice

Bear in mind that the magnet holding may be lower depending on elements below, in order of importance:
  • Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
  • Angle of force application – highest force is available only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is typically several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel grade – the best choice is pure iron steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of induction. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was assessed using a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

H&S for magnets
Electronic devices

Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.

Metal Allergy

A percentage of the population suffer from a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling may cause dermatitis. We strongly advise use protective gloves.

Permanent damage

Control the heat. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and strength.

Dust explosion hazard

Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Hand protection

Watch your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together instantly with a force of massive weight, crushing everything in their path. Be careful!

Powerful field

Use magnets with awareness. Their immense force can surprise even professionals. Be vigilant and do not underestimate their power.

Risk of cracking

Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Danger to pacemakers

Patients with a ICD have to maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.

Keep away from electronics

Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your mobile, device, and GPS.

This is not a toy

Only for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
