1. Shear force

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly weakens the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.44

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.

Other offers

The presented product is a very strong rod magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø45x15 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. This specific item boasts high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 48.55 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 476.32 N with a weight of only 178.92 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.
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, 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 professional neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø45x15), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 45 mm and height 15 mm. The value of 476.32 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 178.92 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 15 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • They maintain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • The use of an shiny layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
  • They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • In view of the possibility of free forming and customization to individualized solutions, magnetic components can be produced in a variety of geometric configurations, which increases their versatility,
  • Fundamental importance in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in data components, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, also technologically advanced constructions.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets lose their force 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 when using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complex forms in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic holder.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat it depends on?

The declared magnet strength refers to the limit force, measured under optimal environment, specifically:
  • using a plate made of low-carbon steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • with a plane cleaned and smooth
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • under axial force direction (90-degree angle)
  • at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

What influences lifting capacity in practice

Holding efficiency is affected by working environment parameters, such as (from most important):
  • Gap between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Direction of force – maximum parameter is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, reducing force.
  • Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was measured using a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Dust is flammable

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Do not give to children

Always keep magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.

Nickel allergy

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid touching magnets with bare hands or choose versions in plastic housing.

Finger safety

Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Be careful!

Cards and drives

Very strong magnetic fields can erase data on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm.

Beware of splinters

Watch out for shards. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Precision electronics

Remember: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Maintain a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.

Medical interference

Medical warning: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.

Handling rules

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

Demagnetization risk

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature surpasses 80°C. This process is irreversible.
