Pulling power drops drastically with every subsequent millimeter of distance. Note that even the smallest gap (e.g., contamination, paint, dust) strongly weakens the grip. Magnets operate strongest at the point of direct contact; distance drastically cuts the force. Observe how quickly the parameters fall, when the product does not touch tightly to the metal substrate. When designing the arrangement, eliminate redundant distances.

This section calculates the approximate force sufficient to initiate the downward movement of the magnet downwards along a upright metal surface (considering standard friction coefficient). This value depends on the separation distance between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MW 5x15 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.14 kg / 0.32 pounds 144.0 g / 1.4 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.10 kg / 0.21 pounds 96.0 g / 0.9 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.05 kg / 0.11 pounds 48.0 g / 0.5 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.24 kg / 0.53 pounds 240.0 g / 2.4 N

When mounting a element on a upright wall (e.g., a car body), it will only hold only about 1/5 of its nominal power. Gravity and a weak degree of grip mean that products slide down easier than they detach. Designing a wall mount? Consider that the shear force is much weaker than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a smooth steel, the holder will slide down under a much lighter cargo. Application of an anti-slip pad can significantly raise the stability.

12 mm	100%	0.48 kg / 1.06 pounds 480.0 g / 4.7 N

A thin metal plate is not enough to absorb the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the holder. If you attach a powerful product to a thin surface, the field will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To squeeze 100% of this magnet's power, you need a suitably thick backing of metal. The material oversaturation causes that on delicate walls (e.g., appliance housings), the magnet shows lower pull force. We advise picking the steel dimension based on the following data.

Standard neodymium magnets irreversibly lose strength above the temperature limit. Watch out for overheating – excessive heat can permanently destroy this magnet. As the temperature rises, the magnet's force briefly decreases. Refrain from using this product near heat sources higher than its safe range. Ignoring the limit will cause destruction of magnetism.

*Important note: Heat tolerance is determined by both grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Flat magnets (pancake types) are more susceptible to demagnetization sooner than taller cylinders. Red status in the table signals permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two strong neodymiums attract each other from a wider radius than a magnet and steel combination. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet creates a more powerful interaction and a larger range of operation. Want to build a strong closure? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a steel. Be careful that when connecting a pair of magnets, the pinch force is massive. The repulsion force is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still impressive.
*Flux density in repulsion mode reaches ~0 Gs at the midpoint of the gap (resulting from vector opposition).
* Figures show shear force of two same magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Table 7: Safety (HSE) (implants) - precautionary measures
MW 5x15 / N38

Object / Device	Limit (Gauss) / mT	Safe distance
Pacemaker	5 Gs (0.5 mT)	4.5 cm
Hearing aid	10 Gs (1.0 mT)	3.5 cm
Mechanical watch	20 Gs (2.0 mT)	2.5 cm
Mobile device	40 Gs (4.0 mT)	2.0 cm

Powerful magnet radiation is a real danger to electronics and pacemakers. These neodymiums produce a flux that prevents correct functioning of digital equipment. Remember: the unseen radiation penetrates the body and glass. Special caution must be taken by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: automatic timepieces, remotes, speakers, and screens. Do not bring the product near payment cards, HDD media, or sensitive navigation tools.

Table 8: Impact energy (cracking risk) - warning
MW 5x15 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	14.87 km/h (4.13 m/s)	0.02 J
30 mm	25.74 km/h (7.15 m/s)	0.06 J
50 mm	33.23 km/h (9.23 m/s)	0.09 J
100 mm	47.00 km/h (13.06 m/s)	0.19 J

Magnetic elements are prone to chipping – a strong collision with metal risks their cracking. Pay attention to connection velocity – a magnet released freely becomes dangerous. Impact energy can cause material chips or painful pinches to fingers. Always hold the magnet during installation so it doesn't slam with momentum against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h almost guarantees destruction of the magnet. Use safety goggles when working with powerful specimens.

MW 5x15 / N38

Environment	Effective steel pull	Effect
Air (land)	0.48 kg	Standard
Water (riverbed)	0.55 kg (+0.07 kg buoyancy gain)	+14.5%

Rust risk: Standard nickel requires drying after every contact with moisture; lack of maintenance will lead to rust spots.

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. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.38

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 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, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø5x15 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 5x15 / N38 model is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 0.48 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

This model is perfect for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 4.68 N with a weight of only 2.21 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.

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, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and high resistance to demagnetization. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø5x15), 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 5 mm and height 15 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 0.48 kg (force ~4.68 N), which, with such defined 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 rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 15 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 durability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

Their magnetic field remains stable, and after around 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
Neodymium magnets are distinguished by exceptionally resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external magnetic fields,
A magnet with a metallic nickel surface has an effective appearance,
Magnets possess maximum magnetic induction on the working surface,
Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
Thanks to modularity in constructing and the capacity to modify to client solutions,
Universal use in high-tech industry – they find application in mass storage devices, brushless drives, advanced medical instruments, and modern systems.
Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:

Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
Neodymium magnets lose their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
Limited ability of creating threads in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is casing - mounting mechanism.
Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process 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

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

Breakaway force was defined for the most favorable conditions, taking into account:

with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
whose thickness reaches at least 10 mm
with an ideally smooth contact surface
under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
in neutral thermal conditions

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

Real force is affected by working environment parameters, mainly (from priority):

Distance – existence of any layer (rust, tape, air) acts as an insulator, which reduces capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
Steel grade – the best choice is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
Plate texture – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets

Machining danger

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Medical interference

For implant holders: Powerful magnets affect medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.

Adults only

Always store magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.

Skin irritation risks

It is widely known that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid touching magnets with bare hands and choose coated magnets.

Beware of splinters

Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.

Keep away from computers

Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Do not underestimate power

Before use, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

Finger safety

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

Permanent damage

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.

GPS and phone interference

Navigation devices and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the internal compass in your phone.
