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.

This product is an extremely powerful cylinder magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø40x8 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item boasts high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 20.43 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building electric motors, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 200.39 N with a weight of only 75.4 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
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., 40.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and operational stability. If you need even stronger 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.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø40x8 mm, which, at a weight of 75.4 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 20.43 kg (force ~200.39 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high grade of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 8 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. Such an arrangement is most desirable 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 and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their notable magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • Their power is durable, and after approximately ten years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to opposing magnetic fields,
  • A magnet with a smooth silver surface has better aesthetics,
  • Neodymium magnets ensure maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which increases force concentration,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of individual machining as well as optimizing to atypical conditions,
  • Key role in future technologies – they are commonly used in hard drives, motor assemblies, diagnostic systems, as well as other advanced devices.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Cons

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mount.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, tiny parts of these magnets can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Holding force characteristics

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat contributes to it?

The declared magnet strength refers to the peak performance, measured under ideal test conditions, specifically:
  • with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
  • with a thickness no less than 10 mm
  • with an polished contact surface
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
  • for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at temperature room level

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Holding efficiency is influenced by working environment parameters, including (from most important):
  • Gap between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Load vector – highest force is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is usually several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
  • Steel type – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy steels decrease magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal factor – high temperature reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Sensitization to coating

Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation happens, cease handling magnets and use protective gear.

Compass and GPS

Note: neodymium magnets produce a field that interferes with precision electronics. Keep a separation from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.

Heat sensitivity

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.

No play value

Absolutely store magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are fatal.

Dust is flammable

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Risk of cracking

Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.

Handling guide

Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even experienced users. Be vigilant and do not underestimate their force.

Bodily injuries

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can result in hematomas, crushing, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Keep away from computers

Data protection: Strong magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Medical interference

People with a pacemaker should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.
