Magnetic force decreases drastically with every subsequent millimeter of spacing. Keep in mind that even the smallest gap (e.g., contamination, varnish, rust) strongly weakens the grip. Magnets work optimally during direct contact; distance nullifies the power. See how flashily the pull force plummet, when the product does not adhere flatly to the metal substrate. When designing the assembly, discard redundant distances.

The table below presents the approximate weight limit needed to initiate the slippage of the magnet downwards on a vertical steel plate (assuming standard friction). The holding force varies with the air gap between the magnet and the metal.

When mounting a holder on a upright wall (e.g., a car body), it will only hold barely about 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravitational force as well as a weak degree of grip mean that holders move down easier than they pop off the substrate. Designing a wall mount? Note that the sliding force is significantly lower than the maximum static pull force. On a smooth steel, the holder will slide down under a significantly smaller load. Utilizing a rubberized coating can effectively improve the result.

A too thin steel cannot conduct the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the holder. Should you attach a powerful product to a too thin substrate, the field will penetrate right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To squeeze 100% of this neodymium's potential, you require a sufficiently solid piece of steel. The saturation effect causes that on delicate walls (e.g., car bodies), the product works worse. We advise picking the steel cross-section based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums lose power past the thermal threshold. Avoid high temperatures – high temperature can irreversibly destroy this magnet. With every degree above norm, the magnet's capacity temporarily lowers. Do not use this magnet close to heaters exceeding its working range. Ignoring the limit will result in permanent loss of magnetic properties.

*Technical advisory: Heat tolerance depends not only on the material grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Low-profile magnets (pancake types) may lose charge permanently sooner than long magnets. The danger warning in the table points to a risk of irreversible loss for this particular item.

Two magnets interact from a wider radius than a magnet and sheet combination. The setup of magnet-to-magnet creates a more powerful interaction and a wider radius of performance. Planning to create a strong closure? Use a pair of magnets instead of a neodymium and a striker plate. Be careful that when connecting a pair of magnets, the impact force is huge. The levitation is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still significant.
*The magnetic induction for N-N configuration reaches ~0 Gs at the midpoint between the magnets (resulting from vector opposition).
Note: Estimates refer to sliding force of two matching magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a real danger to electronics as well as medical implants. These magnets generate a field that destroys function of sensitive medical devices. Remember: the unseen radiation penetrates the body and glass. Increased vigilance must be taken by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Influence will be felt by: mechanical watches, remotes, membranes, and screens. Do not place the magnet near cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are delicate – a collision with steel causes immediate chipping. Control the attraction moment – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can cause material chips or injury to skin. Always hold the magnet during installation so it doesn't hit with great force against the metal. A collision at high speed ends with a crack of the neodymium. Wear safety glasses when handling with powerful specimens.

Warning: This magnet has a standard nickel coating. After use in water, it must be dried and maintained immediately, otherwise it will rust!

The magnetic field penetrates through water without any losses. As a result, your magnet will pull a heavier object from the bottom than if you lifted it in the air.

1. Wall mount (shear)

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Temperature resistance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.09

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 P_c (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 P_c 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 a very strong cylinder magnet, produced from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø4x6 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 4x6 / N38 component is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 0.41 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

This model is ideal for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 4.06 N with a weight of only 0.57 g, this rod 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 long-term durability in automation, 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 frequently chosen standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø4x6), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our warehouse.

The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 4 mm and height 6 mm. The value of 4.06 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.57 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 6 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 Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Benefits

Besides their remarkable magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

They retain magnetic properties for almost ten years – the drop is just ~1% (according to analyses),
They have excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties due to external fields,
In other words, due to the smooth layer of silver, the element gains a professional look,
Magnets exhibit maximum magnetic induction on the outer layer,
Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
Thanks to modularity in constructing and the ability to modify to client solutions,
Huge importance in modern technologies – they serve a role in magnetic memories, drive modules, diagnostic systems, as well as complex engineering applications.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in tiny dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions

Weaknesses

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.

Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also increases their durability
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 rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mount.
Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what affects it?

The specified lifting capacity represents the maximum value, obtained under laboratory conditions, specifically:

with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
whose thickness is min. 10 mm
characterized by lack of roughness
with zero gap (no impurities)
for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
in neutral thermal conditions

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Holding efficiency is affected by specific conditions, including (from most important):

Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) drastically reduces the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
Plate material – mild steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets

Warning for allergy sufferers

Some people experience a sensitization to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling may cause an allergic reaction. It is best to use protective gloves.

Adults only

Only for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing serious injuries. Keep away from kids and pets.

Powerful field

Handle magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Stay alert and respect their force.

Danger to pacemakers

For implant holders: Powerful magnets affect medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.

Fire risk

Machining of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Data carriers

Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.

Magnet fragility

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them breaking into shards.

Serious injuries

Large magnets can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand between two strong magnets.

Phone sensors

An intense magnetic field interferes with the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.

Do not overheat magnets

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. Damage is permanent.
