1. Vertical hold

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely ~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 material, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.55

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.

The presented product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø2x10 mm, guarantees optimal power. This specific item features an accuracy of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 0.07 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard 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 maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 0.70 N with a weight of only 0.24 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices 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 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 NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for the majority of applications in automation and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø2x10), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our store.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø2x10 mm, which, at a weight of 0.24 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The value of 0.70 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.24 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it 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. Such an arrangement is most desirable 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their strong power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose power, even during nearly ten years – the decrease in strength is only ~1% (theoretically),
  • They are extremely resistant to demagnetization induced by presence of other magnetic fields,
  • Thanks to the metallic finish, the coating of nickel, gold, or silver-plated gives an clean appearance,
  • They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to flexibility in shaping and the capacity to adapt to complex applications,
  • Significant place in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, diagnostic systems, as well as complex engineering applications.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

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 shields the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. 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. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mount.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?

Breakaway force was determined for the most favorable conditions, including:
  • with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
  • possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
  • with an ground touching surface
  • without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

During everyday use, the real power depends on many variables, listed from the most important:
  • Distance (between the magnet and the metal), since even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
  • 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).
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Chemical composition of the base – mild steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures decrease magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
  • Smoothness – ideal contact is possible only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment weakens pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Risk of cracking

Despite metallic appearance, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.

GPS Danger

Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Avoid contact if allergic

Certain individuals experience a sensitization to Ni, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact may cause a rash. We strongly advise use safety gloves.

Life threat

For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Keep at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Threat to electronics

Intense magnetic fields can erase data on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Stay away of at least 10 cm.

Danger to the youngest

Strictly keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.

Handling rules

Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even professionals. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their force.

Fire risk

Dust produced during cutting of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Crushing risk

Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Thermal limits

Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
