Magnetic force decreases sharply with every mm of gap. Remember that even a microscopic distance (e.g., dirt, varnish, veneer) significantly diminishes the holding power. Magnetic products operate most effectively at the point of direct contact; air break drastically cuts the power. See how rapidly the load capacity drop, when the magnet does not touch tightly to the metal substrate. When calculating the assembly, discard unnecessary gaps.

This section calculates the approximate holding capacity required to initiate the downward movement of the magnet vertically on a upright steel wall (assuming typical friction). The holding force depends on the gap size between the magnet and the surface.

Table 3: Wall mounting (shearing) - 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 magnet on a vertical surface (e.g., a fridge), it will maintain just about 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravitational force and a weak degree of grip mean that holders slide down easier than they detach. Planning a vertical fastening? Remember that the shear force is noticeably lower than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a slippery surface, the element will give way down under a significantly smaller load. Utilizing a rubberized layer can effectively increase the grip.

A too thin steel is not enough to absorb the entire magnetic field, which wastes potential of the holder. Should you install a neodymium to a weak sheet, the field will pass right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To squeeze full efficiency of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid backing of steel. The material oversaturation causes that on delicate walls (e.g., thin profiles), the magnet holds weaker. We recommend selecting the steel cross-section based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums lose strength above the temperature limit. Watch out for overheating – heat can permanently damage this magnet. As the temperature rises, the magnet's force momentarily decreases. Do not use this magnet in hot environments exceeding its working range. Too high temperature will lead to destruction of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Temperature resistance depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Flat magnets (low Pc) may lose charge permanently under lower heat stress than taller cylinders. Red status in the table signals a risk of irreversible loss for this particular item.

Two magnets attract each other from a significantly greater distance than a neodymium and metal setup. Such a system of two magnets produces a massive flux and a larger range of action. Planning to create a solid fastener? Utilize two neodymiums instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Exercise caution that when attracting two neodymiums, the pinch force is massive. The repulsion force is marginally weaker than the connection force, but still significant.
*Flux density in repulsion mode is approximately ~0 Gs in the exact middle between the magnets (due to field cancellation).
Note: Results refer to shear force of dual same neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Powerful magnet radiation is a real danger to electronics as well as medical implants. These neodymiums produce a field that disrupts operation of sensitive medical devices. Notice: the invisible magnetic field passes through tissues and housings. Increased vigilance must be exercised by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. The risk also applies to: automatic timepieces, remotes, membranes, and screens. Do not place the magnet near cards, hard drives, or sensitive navigation tools.

NdFeB products are very brittle – a violent impact against metal causes immediate chipping. Watch the impact speed – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can destroy the magnet or injury to skin. Hold the magnet firmly during bringing near metal so it doesn't slam with momentum against the steel surface. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h means shattering of the neodymium. Wear safety glasses when working with large magnets.

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

Contrary to myths, water does not block the magnetic field. Buoyancy helps in lifting finds.

1. Shear force

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Steel thickness impact

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

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

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 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 presented product is an exceptionally strong cylindrical magnet, made from advanced NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø5x15 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item boasts high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 0.48 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

This model is perfect for building generators, advanced sensors, and efficient filters, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 4.68 N with a weight of only 2.21 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.

Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this precision component. To ensure stability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Magnets N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. 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 lifting capacity amounting to approximately 0.48 kg (force ~4.68 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 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Advantages

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

They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
Neodymium magnets are characterized by remarkably resistant to demagnetization caused by magnetic disturbances,
By using a shiny coating of silver, the element presents an professional look,
Magnets are characterized by excellent magnetic induction on the active area,
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...
Possibility of precise forming and modifying to concrete needs,
Versatile presence in modern technologies – they find application in computer drives, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, also other advanced devices.
Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a special holder, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. 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
When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
Limited possibility of making threads in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is a housing - magnetic holder.
Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?

The lifting capacity listed is a result of laboratory testing executed under the following configuration:

on a base made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
with a plane perfectly flat
without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
at ambient temperature room level

Key elements affecting lifting force

Effective lifting capacity is affected by working environment parameters, such as (from priority):

Clearance – the presence of any layer (paint, tape, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
Steel type – mild steel attracts best. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of neodymium magnets

Power loss in heat

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

Finger safety

Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Do not give to children

NdFeB magnets are not intended for children. Accidental ingestion of a few magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a critical condition and requires immediate surgery.

GPS Danger

Remember: rare earth magnets produce a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your mobile, tablet, and GPS.

Metal Allergy

Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent direct skin contact and choose versions in plastic housing.

ICD Warning

Health Alert: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.

Machining danger

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Magnets are brittle

Despite the nickel coating, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

Handling rules

Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Safe distance

Intense magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.
