1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Temperature resistance

*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) = 1.21

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.

This product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, composed of modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø5x10 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 5x10 / N38 component features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 0.56 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building electric motors, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient filters, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 5.45 N with a weight of only 1.47 g, this rod 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., 5.1 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.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and operational stability. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø5x10), 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 Ø5x10 mm, which, at a weight of 1.47 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 0.56 kg (force ~5.45 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.
This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 10 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. Such an arrangement is most desirable when connecting magnets in stacks (e.g., in filters) or when mounting in sockets at the bottom of a hole. On request, we can also produce versions magnetized through the diameter if your project requires it.

Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They retain attractive force for almost 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • In other words, due to the smooth surface of gold, the element gains visual value,
  • Magnets have excellent magnetic induction on the outer side,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Due to the possibility of flexible forming and customization to individualized requirements, magnetic components can be created in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
  • Key role in electronics industry – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, as well as industrial machines.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in compact dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices

Weaknesses

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power 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
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material stable to moisture, when using outdoors
  • We suggest cover - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price is higher than average,

Holding force characteristics

Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditionswhat contributes to it?

The lifting capacity listed is a result of laboratory testing performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • using a sheet made of low-carbon steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
  • with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
  • with an ground contact surface
  • with direct contact (no coatings)
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

In real-world applications, the actual lifting capacity depends on a number of factors, ranked from most significant:
  • Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
  • Force direction – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
  • Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Danger to the youngest

Product intended for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Keep away from children and animals.

Safe operation

Use magnets with awareness. Their huge power can surprise even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their power.

Implant safety

Life threat: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.

Magnet fragility

Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting shards into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Maximum temperature

Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature exceeds 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Compass and GPS

Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Sensitization to coating

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

Threat to electronics

Very strong magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Stay away of at least 10 cm.

Dust explosion hazard

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.

Crushing force

Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause hematomas, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
