Magnetic force drops sharply with every subsequent millimeter of distance. Note that even a microscopic distance (e.g., dirt, varnish, dust) significantly diminishes the holding power. Magnets work strongest in perfect adhesion; distance weakens the force. See how rapidly the load capacity plummet, when the product does not adhere flatly to the steel surface. When calculating the assembly, avoid redundant distances.

The table below indicates the estimated force needed to initiate the slippage of the magnet vertically on a upright steel wall (considering standard friction coefficient). This value is a function of the distance between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (shearing) - vertical pull
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 fridge), it will maintain just approx. 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravity as well as a weak degree of grip mean that products slip easier than they pull off. Want to create a vertical fastening? Consider that the sliding force is significantly lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a slippery surface, the magnet will give way down under a much lighter load. Utilizing a rubberized coating can effectively raise the stability.

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

A thin metal plate is incapable of take in the entire magnetic field, which squanders power of the holder. If you attach a powerful product to a thin surface, the flux will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize 100% of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid backing of steel. The saturation phenomenon means that on delicate walls (e.g., appliance housings), the holder works worse. We recommend selecting the steel cross-section according to the table below.

Classic neodymiums lose parameters above the temperature limit. Avoid high temperatures – high temperature can irreversibly destroy this magnet. With increasing heat, the neodymium's power briefly drops. Refrain from using this product in hot environments exceeding its working range. Ignoring the limit will cause destruction of magnetic properties.

*Technical advisory: Thermal stability is determined by both grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Thin magnets (low Pc) are more susceptible to demagnetization under lower heat stress than long magnets. The danger warning in the table signals a risk of irreversible loss for this specific geometry.

Two strong neodymiums interact from a significantly greater distance than a magnet and steel setup. The setup of two magnets produces a massive flux and a wider radius of operation. Planning to create a strong closure? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Be careful that when attracting two neodymiums, the impact force is massive. The repulsion force is slightly lower than the attraction, but still large.
*The magnetic induction for N-N configuration is approximately ~0 Gs at the geometric center of the gap (due to field cancellation).
Important: Results apply to friction force of a pair of same neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Extremely neodym field is a real danger to IT equipment as well as medical implants. These neodymiums generate a field that prevents correct functioning of sensitive medical devices. Be aware: the invisible magnetic field passes through tissues and glass. Increased vigilance must be exercised by people with cochlear implants and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: automatic timepieces, remotes, speakers, and displays. Avoid contact with magnetic cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Dynamics (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

Neodymium magnets are prone to chipping – a collision with steel can result in shattering. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose turns into a projectile. Kinetic force can cause material chips or painful pinches to fingers. Always hold the magnet during mounting so it doesn't hit violently against the steel surface. A collision at high speed means shattering of the neodymium. Wear safety glasses when working with powerful specimens.

Warning: Remember to wipe the magnet thoroughly after removing it from water and apply a protective layer (e.g., oil) to avoid corrosion.

Water displaces steel, making heavy objects slightly lighter. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For standard magnets, 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 an incredibly powerful rod magnet, manufactured from modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø5x15 mm, guarantees optimal power. This specific item boasts an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 0.48 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Furthermore, 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 automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. 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 best method is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 5.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure stability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.

Magnets N38 are strong enough for the majority 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 (Ø5x15), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our store.

This model is characterized by dimensions Ø5x15 mm, which, at a weight of 2.21 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The value of 4.68 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 2.21 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against external factors, 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 5 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Besides their remarkable strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
Magnets perfectly resist against demagnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
In other words, due to the glossy surface of nickel, the element gains visual value,
Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which increases force concentration,
Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
Thanks to the option of flexible molding and adaptation to unique requirements, magnetic components can be modeled in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which expands the range of possible applications,
Huge importance in electronics industry – they are commonly used in computer drives, electric drive systems, medical devices, as well as 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

Limitations

Cons of neodymium magnets: application proposals

They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets using a steel holder. 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
Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore when using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic holder.
Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these products can complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Highest magnetic holding force – what affects it?

Breakaway force was defined for ideal contact conditions, including:

on a plate made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
with an ideally smooth contact surface
under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the plane
in temp. approx. 20°C

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

Holding efficiency is influenced by specific conditions, such as (from priority):

Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
Plate thickness – too thin sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped into the air.
Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may have worse magnetic properties.
Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
Heat – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets

Powerful field

Use magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can surprise even experienced users. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.

Physical harm

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

Danger to pacemakers

For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt electronics. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Nickel coating and allergies

Studies show that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from direct skin contact and select versions in plastic housing.

Data carriers

Intense magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Shattering risk

Watch out for shards. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

GPS Danger

Navigation devices and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Do not give to children

Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing severe trauma. Keep away from children and animals.

Operating temperature

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Flammability

Machining of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Warning! More info about risks in the article: Safety of working with magnets.
