1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Power loss vs temp

*For N38 material, 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

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.

Magnetic Induction

Other products

The offered product is an incredibly powerful rod magnet, composed of advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø45x15 mm, guarantees optimal power. This specific item features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 48.55 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in DIY projects, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 476.32 N with a weight of only 178.92 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 45.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in industry, 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 a great economic balance and operational stability. 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 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 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Besides their remarkable pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • Their magnetic field remains stable, and after approximately 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • Magnets effectively protect themselves against demagnetization caused by external fields,
  • Thanks to the reflective finish, the plating of nickel, gold, or silver-plated gives an modern appearance,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Possibility of exact modeling as well as optimizing to defined applications,
  • Universal use in advanced technology sectors – they are used in magnetic memories, electric motors, medical equipment, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in small dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions

Disadvantages

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore during using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to complex production process, their price is relatively high,

Holding force characteristics

Maximum magnetic pulling forcewhat contributes to it?

The specified lifting capacity concerns the maximum value, measured under optimal environment, specifically:
  • on a base made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
  • with a thickness minimum 10 mm
  • with a surface perfectly flat
  • without any air gap between the magnet and steel
  • under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at temperature room level

What influences lifting capacity in practice

In practice, the real power results from many variables, ranked from crucial:
  • Clearance – the presence of foreign body (rust, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Force direction – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Plate thickness – insufficiently thick sheet does not accept the full field, causing part of the power to be lost to the other side.
  • Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
  • Surface condition – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal factor – high temperature weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.

H&S for magnets
Heat sensitivity

Control the heat. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its properties and strength.

Precision electronics

Be aware: rare earth magnets produce a field that interferes with precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.

Keep away from children

Strictly store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.

Magnetic media

Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.

Do not underestimate power

Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can move away.

Nickel allergy

Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If redness appears, cease working with magnets and use protective gear.

Material brittleness

Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Fire risk

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

ICD Warning

For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.

Bone fractures

Big blocks can crush fingers instantly. Under no circumstances put your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.
