Shopping tips

Neodymium Cylindrical Magnets i.e. MW 38x12 / N38 are magnets created of neodymium in a cylindrical shape. They are valued for their very strong magnetic properties, which outperform traditional iron magnets. Because of their power, they are frequently employed in products that need powerful holding. The standard temperature resistance of such magnets is 80°C, but for cylindrical magnets, this temperature increases with their height. Additionally, various special coatings, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, are often applied to the surface of neodymium magnets to enhance their resistance to corrosion. The cylindrical shape is as well one of the most popular among neodymium magnets. The magnet with the designation MW 38x12 / N38 and a magnetic strength 25.21 kg weighs only 102.07 grams.
Cylindrical neodymium magnets, often referred to as Nd2Fe14B, represent the strongest known material for magnet production. Their production process is complicated and includes melting special neodymium alloys with other metals such as iron and boron. After appropriate processing, such as heat and mechanical treatment, the magnets become ready for use in varied applications, such as electric motors, audio-video equipment, and in the automotive and aerospace industries.
Moreover, even though neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a coating of nickel to protect them from corrosion. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, are brittle, which requires care during their handling. Therefore, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.

In terms of safety, there are many recommendations regarding the use of these magnets. It is advisable to avoid their use in acidic, basic, organic environments or where solvents are present, as well as in water or oil. Additionally, they can damage data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not guaranteed.
Regarding the purchase of cylindrical neodymium magnets, many companies offer such products. One of the suggested suppliers is our company Dhit, situated in Ożarów Mazowiecki, the address is available directly in the contact tab. It is recommended to visit the website for the latest information as well as offers, and before visiting, we recommend calling.
Although, cylindrical neodymium magnets are practical in various applications, they can also constitute certain risk. Due to their significant magnetic power, they can attract metallic objects with uncontrolled force, which can lead to crushing skin or other surfaces, especially fingers. Do not use neodymium magnets near electronic devices or data storage devices, such as credit cards, as they can destroy these devices in terms of magnetic recording. Moreover, neodymium magnets are prone to corrosion in humid environments, thus they are coated with a thin protective layer. In short, although they are handy, one should handle them carefully.
Neodymium magnets, with the formula neodymium-iron-boron, are at this time the strongest available magnets on the market. They are produced through a complicated sintering process, which involves fusing specific alloys of neodymium with additional metals and then shaping and heat treating. Their amazing magnetic strength comes from the unique production technology and chemical composition.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are sensitive to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often coated with coatings, such as nickel, to shield them from external factors and extend their lifespan. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a deterioration of their magnetic properties, although there are specific types of neodymium magnets that can tolerate temperatures up to 230°C.
As for potential dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic environments, basic environments, organic or solvent environments, unless they are properly protected. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may forfeit their magnetic strength.
A neodymium magnet in classes N50 and N52 is a strong and extremely powerful magnetic product designed as a cylinder, providing high force and broad usability. Attractive price, 24h delivery, durability and versatility.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

  • Their magnetic field is durable, and after approximately 10 years, it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They protect against demagnetization induced by ambient magnetic influence very well,
  • Because of the reflective layer of gold, the component looks high-end,
  • They exhibit extremely high levels of magnetic induction near the outer area of the magnet,
  • They are suitable for high-temperature applications, operating effectively at 230°C+ due to advanced heat resistance and form-specific properties,
  • The ability for custom shaping and customization to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which extends the scope of their use cases,
  • Significant impact in modern technologies – they are used in hard drives, electric motors, clinical machines or even other advanced devices,
  • Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in small dimensions, which allows for use in compact constructions

Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:

  • They are prone to breaking when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, it is suggested to place them in a protective case. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and strengthens its overall strength,
  • They lose strength at elevated temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent degradation in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the form and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
  • They rust in a moist environment, especially when used outside, we recommend using encapsulated magnets, such as those made of polymer,
  • Limited ability to create threads in the magnet – the use of a external casing is recommended,
  • Possible threat due to small fragments may arise, in case of ingestion, which is crucial in the family environments. Additionally, miniature parts from these magnets have the potential to interfere with diagnostics if inside the body,
  • In cases of mass production, neodymium magnet cost may be a barrier,

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The given lifting capacity of the magnet corresponds to the maximum lifting force, measured under optimal conditions, specifically:

  • with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
  • with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
  • with a refined outer layer
  • in conditions of no clearance
  • in a perpendicular direction of force
  • in normal thermal conditions

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is conditioned by these factors, from crucial to less important:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
  • Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
  • Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
  • Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
  • Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
  • Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.

* Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a small distance {between} the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.

Safety Precautions

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

In certain circumstances, Neodymium magnets may experience demagnetization when subjected to high temperatures.

Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.

In the case of neodymium magnets, there is a strong magnetic field. As a result, it interferes with the operation of a heart pacemaker. However, if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the device when it is in a magnetic field.

Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.

Neodymium magnets are over 10 times stronger than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their strength can surprise you.

Familiarize yourself with our information to correctly handle these magnets and avoid significant injuries to your body and prevent disruption to the magnets.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.

The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious if you have an allergy.

Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Keep neodymium magnets as far away as possible from GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets are a source of strong magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

  Neodymium magnets should not be around children.

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.

Magnets made of neodymium are known for being fragile, which can cause them to crumble.

Neodymium magnets are highly fragile, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will crumble. Magnets made of neodymium are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable as steel. At the moment of connection between the magnets, sharp metal fragments can be dispersed in different directions.

Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.

If joining of neodymium magnets is not under control, then they may crumble and crack. Remember not to move them to each other or have them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.

Be careful!
