1. Shear force

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For standard magnets, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.21

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.

Other products

The offered product is an extremely powerful rod magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø2x4 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 2x4 / N38 component is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 0.09 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient filters, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 0.86 N with a weight of only 0.09 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this precision component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets 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 even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø2x4), 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 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 secures it 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 2 mm. Such an arrangement is standard 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.

Benefits

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even over approximately 10 years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Magnets effectively defend themselves against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
  • By covering with a lustrous coating of gold, the element gains an aesthetic look,
  • They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
  • 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...
  • In view of the ability of free shaping and adaptation to specialized needs, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a broad palette of geometric configurations, which amplifies use scope,
  • Key role in modern industrial fields – they serve a role in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, and industrial machines.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Cons

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience 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 start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • We recommend a housing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small components of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Pull force analysis

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat it depends on?

The force parameter is a measurement result executed under the following configuration:
  • with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose thickness reaches at least 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • without any air gap between the magnet and steel
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at standard ambient temperature

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Bear in mind that the application force may be lower depending on the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Clearance – existence of foreign body (paint, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which reduces power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Force direction – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
  • Material type – the best choice is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
  • Base smoothness – the more even the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature reduces magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity was measured by applying a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.

H&S for magnets
Eye protection

Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Physical harm

Protect your hands. Two large magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

GPS and phone interference

A strong magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a device to prevent breaking the sensors.

Demagnetization risk

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

Allergic reactions

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction appears, cease handling magnets and wear gloves.

Dust explosion hazard

Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Caution required

Use magnets consciously. Their immense force can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and respect their force.

Data carriers

Do not bring magnets close to a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

Implant safety

Individuals with a heart stimulator should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the operation of the implant.

No play value

These products are not suitable for play. Eating several magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which constitutes a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.
