1. Sliding resistance

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.31

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, manufactured from advanced NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø4x10 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 4x10 / N38 model features high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 0.32 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building electric motors, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. 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 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 immediate cracking of this precision component. To ensure stability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability 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 in continuous sale in our store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 4 mm and height 10 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 0.32 kg (force ~3.16 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high power 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 10 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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

Besides their stability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They retain attractive force for nearly ten years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
  • They do not lose their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • Thanks to the glossy finish, the surface of nickel, gold, or silver gives an elegant appearance,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a unique magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to freedom in forming and the capacity to adapt to specific needs,
  • Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are utilized in computer drives, brushless drives, precision medical tools, also industrial machines.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • At strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
  • 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 waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • We recommend casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these magnets are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat affects it?

Magnet power was defined for the most favorable conditions, taking into account:
  • using a sheet made of mild steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • with an polished contact surface
  • under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at conditions approx. 20°C

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

In practice, the actual holding force is determined by many variables, presented from the most important:
  • Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), because even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
  • Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Plate thickness – insufficiently thick plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be escaped into the air.
  • Plate material – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy steels reduce magnetic properties and holding force.
  • Surface quality – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Warnings
Allergic reactions

Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent direct skin contact and choose encased magnets.

Medical interference

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Keep at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Swallowing risk

Neodymium magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of a few magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which constitutes a direct threat to life and requires urgent medical intervention.

Immense force

Be careful. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can move away.

Magnet fragility

Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, launching sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Flammability

Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Crushing force

Big blocks can smash fingers instantly. Do not place your hand between two strong magnets.

Precision electronics

GPS units and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.

Safe distance

Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.

Heat warning

Control the heat. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its properties and pulling force.
