1. Shear force

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces 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) = 1.31

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.

Field Strength

Other proposals

The offered product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, made from modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø4x10 mm, guarantees optimal power. 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. 0.32 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical 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 high power of 3.16 N with a weight of only 0.94 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
Since our magnets have a very precise dimensions, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 4.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure stability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are strong enough for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø4x10), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our store.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø4x10 mm, which, at a weight of 0.94 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 0.32 kg (force ~3.16 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high grade of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface 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 4 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
  • Neodymium magnets are distinguished by highly resistant to demagnetization caused by external interference,
  • Thanks to the reflective finish, the plating of nickel, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an elegant appearance,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of detailed forming as well as optimizing to specific applications,
  • Versatile presence in electronics industry – they are utilized in magnetic memories, brushless drives, diagnostic systems, as well as industrial machines.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in tiny dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions

Cons

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease 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
  • They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited ability of creating threads in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is a housing - magnet mounting.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, tiny parts of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat affects it?

Holding force of 0.32 kg is a result of laboratory testing performed under standard conditions:
  • with the contact of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
  • whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
  • with an ideally smooth contact surface
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

What influences lifting capacity in practice

It is worth knowing that the magnet holding will differ subject to the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Load vector – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Smoothness – full contact is possible only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment weakens pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.

H&S for magnets
GPS Danger

A strong magnetic field negatively affects the operation of compasses in phones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets near a smartphone to prevent breaking the sensors.

Warning for allergy sufferers

Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction happens, cease working with magnets and use protective gear.

Life threat

Individuals with a pacemaker must keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the operation of the implant.

Fragile material

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.

Choking Hazard

These products are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of multiple magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.

Bone fractures

Risk of injury: The attraction force is so great that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Handling guide

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

Protect data

Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, timepieces).

Fire risk

Machining of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Heat warning

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