1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*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) = 0.35

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.

The offered product is an exceptionally strong cylindrical magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø40x10 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item features an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 27.73 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in DIY projects, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 271.99 N with a weight of only 94.25 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating of this professional component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø40x10), 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 Ø40x10 mm, which, at a weight of 94.25 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 27.73 kg (force ~271.99 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 10 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. Thanks to this, the magnet can be easily glued into a hole and achieve a strong field on the front surface. On request, we can also produce versions magnetized through the diameter if your project requires it.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They retain attractive force for around ten years – the loss is just ~1% (based on simulations),
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by highly resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external field sources,
  • A magnet with a smooth silver surface looks better,
  • Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet is strong,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Thanks to versatility in shaping and the capacity to modify to specific needs,
  • Universal use in advanced technology sectors – they are used in data components, motor assemblies, diagnostic systems, also technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in tiny dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions

Limitations

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • Neodymium magnets lose their strength 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
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex forms in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mount.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Pull force analysis

Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameterswhat contributes to it?

Breakaway force is the result of a measurement for the most favorable conditions, including:
  • with the use of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
  • with a thickness no less than 10 mm
  • with an polished contact surface
  • without any clearance between the magnet and steel
  • under vertical force direction (90-degree angle)
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Bear in mind that the application force will differ depending on the following factors, starting with the most relevant:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
  • 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.
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Smoothness – ideal contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
No play value

Absolutely keep magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.

Handling guide

Before use, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Heat warning

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, look for HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Hand protection

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

Keep away from computers

Very strong magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Stay away of min. 10 cm.

Magnet fragility

Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.

GPS and phone interference

Remember: neodymium magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.

Skin irritation risks

Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid direct skin contact or opt for encased magnets.

Flammability

Dust generated during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.

Danger to pacemakers

For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Danger! Details about hazards in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
