1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

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

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

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

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.

The offered product is an exceptionally strong cylindrical magnet, composed of advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø45x15 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 45x15 / N38 model is characterized by high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 48.55 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Moreover, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building electric motors, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient filters, where field concentration on a small surface counts. 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.
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., 45.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel 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 even stronger 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 warehouse.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø45x15 mm, which, at a weight of 178.92 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. 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 protects the surface against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They do not lose magnetism, even during approximately 10 years – the drop in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • In other words, due to the metallic finish of gold, the element becomes visually attractive,
  • They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Considering the option of flexible molding and adaptation to specialized solutions, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which increases their versatility,
  • Fundamental importance in modern technologies – they are utilized in magnetic memories, motor assemblies, medical equipment, as well as complex engineering applications.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore when using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • We recommend casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat it depends on?

Magnet power is the result of a measurement for optimal configuration, including:
  • on a base made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
  • possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with a plane perfectly flat
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • at room temperature

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

In real-world applications, the real power results from many variables, listed from crucial:
  • Gap between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Angle of force application – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of generating force.
  • Material composition – not every steel reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
  • Surface condition – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of force. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Lifting capacity was assessed using a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Combustion hazard

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

Avoid contact if allergic

Medical facts indicate that nickel (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. For allergy sufferers, prevent touching magnets with bare hands and select coated magnets.

Demagnetization risk

Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Safe distance

Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

ICD Warning

Individuals with a heart stimulator must keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.

Danger to the youngest

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

Safe operation

Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.

Risk of cracking

Despite the nickel coating, the material is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

Crushing risk

Large magnets can smash fingers instantly. Do not put your hand between two attracting surfaces.

Keep away from electronics

Navigation devices and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
