Shopping tips

Neodymium Cylindrical Magnets min. MW 38x3.5 / N38 are magnets created of neodymium in a cylindrical shape. They are valued for their very strong magnetic properties, which exceed ordinary ferrite magnets. Thanks to their power, they are frequently used in devices that require powerful holding. The typical temperature resistance of such magnets is 80°C, but for magnets in a cylindrical form, 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 increase their durability to corrosion. The cylindrical shape is as well very popular among neodymium magnets. The magnet with the designation MW 38x3.5 / N38 with a magnetic strength 7.35 kg has a weight of only 29.77 grams.
Cylindrical neodymium magnets, often referred to as Nd2Fe14B, are 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, including 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. Interestingly that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, easily break, which requires special caution during their handling. For this reason, 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 in solvents, as well as in water or oil. Furthermore, 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 can be found directly in the contact tab. It is recommended to visit the site for the latest information and offers, and before visiting, we recommend calling.
Due to their strength, cylindrical neodymium magnets are very practical in many applications, they can also pose certain dangers. Due to their significant magnetic power, they can pull metallic objects with significant force, which can lead to crushing skin and other surfaces, especially be careful with fingers. Do not use neodymium magnets near equipment or data storage devices, such as credit cards, as they can destroy these devices in terms of magnetic recording. Furthermore, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments, therefore they are coated with a thin e.g., nickel layer. In short, although they are handy, one should handle them with due caution.
Neodymium magnets, with the formula neodymium-iron-boron, are currently the strong magnets on the market. They are produced through a advanced sintering process, which involves melting specific alloys of neodymium with other metals and then forming and thermal processing. Their amazing magnetic strength comes from the specific production technology and chemical structure.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often covered with thin coatings, such as silver, to shield them from environmental factors and prolong their durability. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a loss of their magnetic properties, although there are specific types of neodymium magnets that can withstand temperatures up to 230°C.
As for dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic environments, basic conditions, organic or solvent environments, unless they are adequately insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in water, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may forfeit their magnetic properties.
A cylindrical neodymium magnet in classes N52 and N50 is a strong and extremely powerful metallic component designed as a cylinder, that provides strong holding power and versatile application. Very good price, 24h delivery, resistance and versatility.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

  • Their power is durable, and after approximately 10 years, it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They are extremely resistant to demagnetization caused by external field interference,
  • In other words, due to the shiny silver coating, the magnet obtains an aesthetic appearance,
  • The outer field strength of the magnet shows remarkable magnetic properties,
  • Neodymium magnets are known for exceptionally strong magnetic induction and the ability to work at temperatures up to 230°C or higher (depending on the geometry),
  • The ability for precise shaping as well as adjustment to custom needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which amplifies their functionality across industries,
  • Important function in advanced technical fields – they are utilized in HDDs, rotating machines, healthcare devices along with sophisticated instruments,
  • Thanks to their efficiency per volume, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, with minimal size,

Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:

  • They may fracture when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, it is advisable to use in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and additionally enhances its overall resistance,
  • Magnets lose pulling force when exposed to temperatures exceeding 80°C. In most cases, this leads to irreversible magnetic decay (influenced by the magnet’s structure). To address this, we provide [AH] models with superior thermal resistance, able to operate even at 230°C or more,
  • Magnets exposed to humidity can corrode. Therefore, for outdoor applications, it's best to use waterproof types made of plastic,
  • The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining internal cuts in neodymium magnets is difficult,
  • Health risk related to magnet particles may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is significant in the protection of children. It should also be noted that small elements from these devices have the potential to hinder health screening if inside the body,
  • High unit cost – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g., ferrite), which may limit large-scale applications

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat affects it?

The given pulling force of the magnet means the maximum force, assessed in ideal conditions, that is:

  • using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
  • having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
  • with a smooth surface
  • in conditions of no clearance
  • under perpendicular detachment force
  • in normal thermal conditions

Key elements affecting lifting force

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is affected by these factors, in descending order of importance:

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause 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 determined by applying a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a slight gap {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.

Handle with Care: Neodymium Magnets

Neodymium magnetic are extremely fragile, leading to breaking.

In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. Despite being made of metal as well as coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. In the case of a collision between two magnets, there can be a scattering of small sharp metal fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is essential.

Neodymium magnets can attract to each other due to their immense internal force, causing the skin and other body parts to get pinched and resulting in significant injuries.

Magnets will crack or alternatively crumble with careless connecting to each other. Remember not to approach them to each other or have them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.

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

Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. In addition, they can damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.

 It is essential to maintain neodymium magnets away from youngest children.

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. Small magnets pose a serious choking hazard or can attract to each other in the intestines. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.

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

Read the information on our website on how to properly utilize neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body and unintentional disruption to the magnets.

Avoid contact with neodymium magnets if you have a nickel 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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.

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

Intense magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

People with pacemakers are advised to avoid neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.

Exercise caution!
