1. Wall mount (shear)

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) severely weakens the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.

4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.29

The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. 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.

Other proposals

This product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø40x8 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 20.43 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 200.39 N with a weight of only 75.4 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this precision component. To ensure long-term durability in industry, anaerobic resins 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 a great economic balance and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø40x8), 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 40 mm and height 8 mm. The value of 200.39 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 75.4 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it 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 40 mm. 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of neodymium magnets.

Pros

In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
  • Magnets very well resist against demagnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
  • The use of an metallic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
  • Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet turns out to be maximum,
  • Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • In view of the possibility of flexible forming and adaptation to individualized projects, NdFeB magnets can be created in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which makes them more universal,
  • Universal use in modern industrial fields – they are utilized in mass storage devices, brushless drives, precision medical tools, also other advanced devices.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of strength (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 usually 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 threads and complicated forms in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditionswhat contributes to it?

The force parameter is a measurement result conducted under the following configuration:
  • with the application of a sheet made of special test steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
  • with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
  • with a plane perfectly flat
  • without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

During everyday use, the actual holding force is determined by many variables, presented from the most important:
  • Distance – existence of any layer (rust, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Load vector – maximum parameter is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is standardly several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture create air cushions, reducing force.
  • Thermal factor – hot environment reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Warnings
Magnetic interference

Note: rare earth magnets produce a field that confuses precision electronics. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, device, and navigation systems.

Magnets are brittle

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets leads to them cracking into small pieces.

Metal Allergy

Some people experience a contact allergy to Ni, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching may cause dermatitis. We suggest use protective gloves.

Threat to electronics

Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Medical interference

For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.

Keep away from children

Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Store out of reach of children and animals.

Thermal limits

Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet to high heat will ruin its properties and strength.

Caution required

Be careful. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can react.

Combustion hazard

Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Hand protection

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