1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.55

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.

Other deals

The offered product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, manufactured from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø55x25 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 55x25 / N38 component features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 92.25 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in modeling, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 904.94 N with a weight of only 445.47 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this precision component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø55x25), 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 Ø55x25 mm, which, at a weight of 445.47 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The value of 904.94 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 445.47 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 25 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 and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their notable magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose strength, even after around 10 years – the reduction in power is only ~1% (according to tests),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • The use of an metallic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
  • Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet is maximum,
  • Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
  • Thanks to modularity in designing and the ability to modify to client solutions,
  • Wide application in modern technologies – they serve a role in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, and technologically advanced constructions.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Disadvantages

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets and proposals for their use:
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power 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 rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • We recommend casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?

Information about lifting capacity was determined for the most favorable conditions, taking into account:
  • using a plate made of low-carbon steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
  • possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • characterized by even structure
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
  • at standard ambient temperature

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In real-world applications, the real power depends on several key aspects, ranked from the most important:
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the plate), since even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
  • Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel type – mild steel attracts best. Alloy steels lower magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Surface quality – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Respect the power

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

Electronic hazard

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

Risk of cracking

Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Allergy Warning

It is widely known that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent touching magnets with bare hands or opt for versions in plastic housing.

Demagnetization risk

Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, look for HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Warning for heart patients

Patients with a pacemaker have to keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.

Crushing risk

Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!

Dust explosion hazard

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Precision electronics

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

Choking Hazard

Absolutely store magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
