1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces 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) = 1.21

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.

Other deals

This product is an extremely powerful rod magnet, produced from modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø2x4 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item features high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 0.09 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in modeling, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 0.86 N with a weight of only 0.09 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø2x4), 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 2 mm and height 4 mm. The value of 0.86 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.09 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 4 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 as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Besides their immense strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • Their strength is maintained, and after approximately ten years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss as a result of opposing magnetic fields,
  • A magnet with a metallic gold surface is more attractive,
  • Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of accurate creating and optimizing to atypical conditions,
  • Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in magnetic memories, brushless drives, advanced medical instruments, and industrial machines.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength 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
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material stable to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mechanism.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Lifting parameters

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat affects it?

Magnet power was determined for the most favorable conditions, assuming:
  • on a base made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
  • with a thickness no less than 10 mm
  • with an polished touching surface
  • without any clearance between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • at standard ambient temperature

What influences lifting capacity in practice

Real force impacted by specific conditions, including (from most important):
  • Distance – the presence of foreign body (paint, tape, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Force direction – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which improves force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
  • Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was measured with the use of a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Pacemakers

Individuals with a heart stimulator must keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the implant.

Power loss in heat

Watch the temperature. Exposing the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and strength.

Adults only

Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing severe trauma. Store out of reach of children and animals.

Magnets are brittle

Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Fire warning

Dust created during grinding of magnets is combustible. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.

Compass and GPS

GPS units and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.

Sensitization to coating

A percentage of the population suffer from a sensitization to nickel, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching may cause skin redness. It is best to use safety gloves.

Pinching danger

Big blocks can crush fingers instantly. Never put your hand between two strong magnets.

Respect the power

Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.

Data carriers

Data protection: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, timepieces).
