chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.25

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.

Magnetic Induction

View more deals

This product is an incredibly powerful cylinder magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø30x5 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 30x5 / N38 model is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 8.71 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 85.42 N with a weight of only 26.51 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 30.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø30x5), 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 30 mm and height 5 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 8.71 kg (force ~85.42 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 cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 5 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their consistent power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose strength, even during approximately 10 years – the drop in lifting capacity is only ~1% (according to tests),
  • They possess excellent resistance to magnetic field loss due to external magnetic sources,
  • The use of an aesthetic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
  • Magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet is extremely intense,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Due to the possibility of free forming and adaptation to individualized needs, neodymium magnets can be produced in a variety of forms and dimensions, which increases their versatility,
  • Wide application in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in data components, motor assemblies, advanced medical instruments, also modern systems.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Disadvantages

Cons of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • NdFeB magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to 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.
  • Due to limitations in realizing threads and complex forms in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat contributes to it?

The declared magnet strength represents the limit force, measured under optimal environment, meaning:
  • on a plate made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
  • whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
  • characterized by lack of roughness
  • without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • under vertical application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at room temperature

Key elements affecting lifting force

Holding efficiency impacted by specific conditions, such as (from priority):
  • Gap (between the magnet and the plate), because even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
  • Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Temperature – temperature increase results in weakening of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Caution required

Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can react.

Adults only

Absolutely keep magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.

Demagnetization risk

Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Bone fractures

Large magnets can smash fingers instantly. Never put your hand between two strong magnets.

Mechanical processing

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

Beware of splinters

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

Safe distance

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Danger to pacemakers

Health Alert: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Allergic reactions

A percentage of the population suffer from a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching might lead to an allergic reaction. We strongly advise use protective gloves.

Precision electronics

GPS units and mobile phones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.
