1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just ~20% of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

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

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

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

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.

This product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, composed of advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø55x25 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item boasts a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 92.25 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient filters, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 904.94 N with a weight of only 445.47 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 55.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are suitable 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 (Ø55x25), 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 Ø55x25 mm, which, at a weight of 445.47 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 92.25 kg (force ~904.94 N), which, with such defined 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 55 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their strong holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • Their strength is maintained, and after approximately ten years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external magnetic fields,
  • A magnet with a shiny nickel surface is more attractive,
  • Magnets are distinguished by excellent magnetic induction on the surface,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Possibility of exact machining as well as optimizing to concrete needs,
  • Huge importance in electronics industry – they serve a role in computer drives, brushless drives, medical devices, as well as multitasking production systems.
  • Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Disadvantages

Cons of neodymium magnets and proposals for their use:
  • At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's 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 resistant to moisture
  • We recommend cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat it depends on?

The specified lifting capacity refers to the peak performance, obtained under laboratory conditions, specifically:
  • using a plate made of low-carbon steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
  • possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an ideally smooth touching surface
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (surface-to-surface)
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
  • at temperature room level

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

During everyday use, the actual lifting capacity depends on several key aspects, presented from most significant:
  • Distance – the presence of foreign body (paint, dirt, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Load vector – maximum parameter is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is typically several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Base massiveness – too thin plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the power to be escaped into the air.
  • Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
  • Surface quality – the more even the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Temperature influence – high temperature reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Choking Hazard

Product intended for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, causing intestinal necrosis. Store away from children and animals.

ICD Warning

Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.

Mechanical processing

Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Keep away from computers

Very strong magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm.

Power loss in heat

Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its properties and strength.

Respect the power

Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Metal Allergy

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

Beware of splinters

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Impact on smartphones

Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.

Physical harm

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