Magnetic force weakens significantly with every subsequent millimeter of distance. Note that even a microscopic distance (e.g., dirt, varnish, dust) significantly reduces the pull force. Magnetic products hold optimally during direct contact; distance nullifies the power. Analyze how flashily the parameters drop, when the magnet does not adhere tightly to the steel surface. When calculating the assembly, avoid additional spacers.

The following data defines the estimated holding capacity needed to initiate the shifting of the magnet vertically against a upright steel wall (assuming standard friction coefficient). This value varies with the air gap between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MW 3x6 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.06 kg / 0.13 LBS 60.0 g / 0.6 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.04 kg / 0.09 LBS 40.0 g / 0.4 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.02 kg / 0.04 LBS 20.0 g / 0.2 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.10 kg / 0.22 LBS 100.0 g / 1.0 N

When placing a magnet on a upright wall (e.g., a car body), it will maintain barely about 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravitational force and a low friction coefficient influence the fact that products slide down easier than they pull off. Want to create a wall mount? Consider that the sliding force is significantly lower than the maximum static pull force. On a smooth steel, the element will slide down under a significantly smaller load. Application of an anti-slip layer can significantly improve the result.

A thin sheet cannot take in the entire magnetic field, which weakens actual performance of the holder. Should you attach a powerful product to a weak sheet, the magnetism will pass right through and the holding will be smaller. To squeeze the maximum of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid element of steel. The saturation effect means that on thin elements (e.g., car bodies), the magnet works worse. We suggest choosing the steel dimension based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums irreversibly lose parameters past the thermal threshold. Avoid high temperatures – high temperature can irreversibly demagnetize this magnet. With increasing heat, the neodymium's force briefly drops. Do not use this product close to heaters exceeding its working range. Ignoring the limit will result in destruction of magnetism.

*Technical advisory: Thermal stability depends not only on the material grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Low-profile magnets (pancake types) may lose charge permanently under lower heat stress than taller cylinders. The danger warning in the table signals permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two magnetic products interact from a much further distance than a neodymium and metal setup. The connection of magnet-to-magnet generates a stronger field and a further horizon of performance. Planning to create a solid fastener? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a steel. Be careful that when attracting two neodymiums, the pinch force is massive. The repulsion force is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still impressive.
*Field value for N-N configuration drops to ~0 Gs at the geometric center between the magnets (resulting from vector opposition).
Attention: Results demonstrate friction force of dual identical magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni layer).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a large risk to IT equipment as well as pacemakers. These NdFeB products generate a flux that destroys function of digital equipment. Be aware: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and housings. Increased vigilance must be taken by people with cochlear implants and drug dispensers. Also at risk are: mechanical watches, car keys, membranes, and displays. Do not place the magnet near cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Impact energy (kinetic energy) - collision effects
MW 3x6 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	25.21 km/h (7.00 m/s)	0.01 J
30 mm	43.67 km/h (12.13 m/s)	0.02 J
50 mm	56.38 km/h (15.66 m/s)	0.04 J
100 mm	79.73 km/h (22.15 m/s)	0.08 J

Neodymium magnets are very brittle – a collision with steel can result in shattering. Control the attraction moment – a magnet released freely becomes dangerous. Impact energy can destroy the magnet or dangerous crushing to fingers. Always hold the magnet during bringing near metal so it doesn't slam with momentum against the steel surface. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h ends with a crack of the neodymium. Wear safety glasses when handling with large magnets.

Warning: Remember to wipe the magnet thoroughly after removing it from water and apply a protective layer (e.g., oil) to avoid corrosion.

In water, the magnet feels stronger thanks to Archimedes' principle. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Wall mount (shear)

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically limits 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 P_c (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 P_c (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 P_c 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.

This product is an incredibly powerful rod magnet, produced from modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø3x6 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 0.20 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

It finds application in DIY projects, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 1.95 N with a weight of only 0.32 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.

Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 3.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are strong enough for the majority of applications in automation and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø3x6), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our store.

This model is characterized by dimensions Ø3x6 mm, which, at a weight of 0.32 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The value of 1.95 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.32 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against oxidation, 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 3 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 as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
They maintain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
The use of an elegant layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
The surface of neodymium magnets generates a powerful magnetic field – this is a key feature,
Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
Thanks to modularity in designing and the capacity to modify to unusual requirements,
Versatile presence in high-tech industry – they find application in computer drives, motor assemblies, medical equipment, and complex engineering applications.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in small dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions

Cons

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:

At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
Neodymium magnets lose their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
Limited possibility of creating threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is a housing - magnet mounting.
Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small elements of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what affects it?

The declared magnet strength refers to the maximum value, recorded under optimal environment, specifically:

on a block made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic flux
possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
characterized by even structure
under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
under vertical application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
at room temperature

What influences lifting capacity in practice

In practice, the real power results from many variables, ranked from most significant:

Distance (between the magnet and the metal), because even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Base massiveness – insufficiently thick steel does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be escaped into the air.
Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
Smoothness – full contact is possible only on smooth steel. Rough texture create air cushions, reducing force.
Heat – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was measured using a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

H&S for magnets

Powerful field

Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even experienced users. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.

Do not give to children

Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing intestinal necrosis. Keep away from kids and pets.

Compass and GPS

A powerful magnetic field disrupts the functioning of magnetometers in phones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets near a device to avoid breaking the sensors.

Mechanical processing

Dust generated during grinding of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.

Serious injuries

Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Fragile material

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Operating temperature

Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and pulling force.

Safe distance

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin payment cards and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, timepieces).

Allergic reactions

It is widely known that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid direct skin contact or choose coated magnets.

Danger to pacemakers

For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.
