1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 grade, 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

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 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.

The presented product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, manufactured from durable NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø5x25 mm, guarantees optimal power. This specific item is characterized by a tolerance of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 0.45 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It finds application in modeling, advanced robotics, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 4.41 N with a weight of only 3.68 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, the recommended way is to glue them into holes with a slightly larger diameter (e.g., 5.1 mm) using epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability 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 even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø5x25), 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 25 mm. The value of 4.41 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 3.68 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, 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 and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Pros

In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • Their magnetic field is durable, and after around ten years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
  • Neodymium magnets are distinguished by extremely resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external interference,
  • The use of an shiny layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
  • They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, making them more effective,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to modularity in shaping and the ability to customize to specific needs,
  • Universal use in advanced technology sectors – they find application in HDD drives, brushless drives, medical devices, also modern systems.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Limitations

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease 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 advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, tiny parts of these magnets are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price is relatively high,

Pull force analysis

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat it depends on?

The lifting capacity listed is a measurement result performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • with the contact of a sheet made of special test steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
  • possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with a surface cleaned and smooth
  • under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
  • at temperature room level

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In practice, the real power is determined by several key aspects, presented from crucial:
  • Space between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Direction of force – maximum parameter is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Plate thickness – too thin plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be escaped to the other side.
  • Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
  • Surface finish – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
  • Temperature – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, however under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Warnings
Do not underestimate power

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

Danger to the youngest

Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to severe trauma. Store out of reach of kids and pets.

ICD Warning

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Do not drill into magnets

Powder created during grinding of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.

Bodily injuries

Big blocks can break fingers instantly. Do not put your hand between two attracting surfaces.

Keep away from computers

Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.

GPS Danger

Navigation devices and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.

Permanent damage

Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature surpasses 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Nickel coating and allergies

Allergy Notice: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If redness occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.

Risk of cracking

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