1. Wall mount (shear)

*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its max power.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.55

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.

Other proposals

The offered product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, produced from modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø5x25 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 5x25 / N38 model boasts high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 0.45 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Furthermore, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 4.41 N with a weight of only 3.68 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
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 epoxy glues. To ensure stability in industry, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø5x25), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 5 mm and height 25 mm. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 0.45 kg (force ~4.41 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 25 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 and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Advantages

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (based on calculations),
  • They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
  • By applying a shiny coating of nickel, the element has an aesthetic look,
  • Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
  • 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 versatility in forming and the capacity to adapt to client solutions,
  • Key role in future technologies – they are used in magnetic memories, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, also technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions

Cons

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets lose their force 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
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Limited possibility of producing threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is cover - mounting mechanism.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small elements of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what affects it?

The force parameter is a result of laboratory testing conducted under specific, ideal conditions:
  • with the contact of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
  • possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with a plane free of scratches
  • with direct contact (no paint)
  • under axial force vector (90-degree angle)
  • at standard ambient temperature

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Effective lifting capacity impacted by working environment parameters, such as (from most important):
  • Space between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Force direction – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity 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 penetrates through instead of generating force.
  • Steel grade – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Stainless steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
  • Heat – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Bodily injuries

Large magnets can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Never put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Power loss in heat

Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Mechanical processing

Machining of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Handling rules

Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.

Metal Allergy

Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact and opt for coated magnets.

Risk of cracking

NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.

Warning for heart patients

Patients with a pacemaker should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.

Cards and drives

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

No play value

Always keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are tragic.

Threat to navigation

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