Pulling power weakens significantly per each millimeter of gap. Note that every additional insulation layer (e.g., contamination, varnish, dust) noticeably diminishes the holding power. Magnets work optimally in perfect adhesion; air break weakens the force. Notice how quickly the load capacity fall, when the magnet does not adhere directly to the metal substrate. When calculating the arrangement, eliminate unnecessary gaps.

The following data presents the theoretical holding capacity needed to start the shifting of the magnet down against a upright steel plate (considering standard friction). This parameter is a function of the gap size between the magnet and the metal.

Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.25 kg / 0.56 pounds 252.0 g / 2.5 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.17 kg / 0.37 pounds 168.0 g / 1.6 N

Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.42 kg / 0.93 pounds 420.0 g / 4.1 N

When mounting a magnet on a vertical surface (e.g., a fridge), it will only hold barely approx. 1/5 of nominal attraction strength. Gravitational force and a weak degree of grip cause that magnets move down easier than they pop off the substrate. Designing a vertical fastening? Note that the sliding force is much weaker than the perpendicular breakaway force. On a slippery surface, the magnet will slide down under a significantly smaller weight. Utilizing a rubberized layer can drastically increase the grip.

A too thin steel is unable to conduct the full magnetic flux, which wastes potential of the magnet. Should you mount a strong magnet to a weak sheet, the field will penetrate right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize the maximum of this magnet's power, you need a suitably thick backing of steel. The saturation phenomenon means that on delicate walls (e.g., thin profiles), the holder shows lower pull force. We advise picking the steel thickness based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums change their properties strength after exceeding the maximum temperature. Watch out for overheating – high temperature can permanently destroy this magnet. As the temperature rises, the neodymium's force momentarily drops. Refrain from using this magnet close to ovens higher than its operating temperature limit. Ignoring the limit will result in permanent loss of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Thermal stability is determined by both grade, and the Permeance Coefficient Pc. Low-profile magnets (low permeance coefficient) may lose charge permanently under lower heat stress than long magnets. Warning indicator in the table points to permanent field degradation for this particular item.

Two strong neodymiums attract each other from a wider radius than a magnet and steel combination. Such a system of two magnets generates a stronger field and a further horizon of operation. Planning to create a strong closure? Utilize two neodymiums instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Be careful that when attracting two neodymiums, the impact force is massive. The levitation is slightly lower than the connection force, but still large.
*Field value for N-N configuration drops to ~0 Gs in the exact middle of the gap (caused by magnetic field nullification).
Attention: Estimates refer to friction force of dual same magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Powerful magnet radiation is a large risk to electronics as well as medical implants. These NdFeB products produce a field that disrupts operation of digital equipment. Be aware: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and plastic. Special caution must be exercised by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Influence will be felt by: mechanical watches, remotes, membranes, and displays. Do not bring the product near payment cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Impact energy (kinetic energy) - collision effects
MW 5x3 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	44.07 km/h (12.24 m/s)	0.03 J
30 mm	76.32 km/h (21.20 m/s)	0.10 J
50 mm	98.53 km/h (27.37 m/s)	0.16 J
100 mm	139.35 km/h (38.71 m/s)	0.33 J

Magnetic elements are delicate – a collision with steel causes immediate chipping. Pay attention to connection velocity – a neodymium left loose speeds with massive force. Impact energy can cause material chips or injury to skin. Be sure to control the product during mounting so it doesn't hit with great force against the metal. A contact at a velocity of dozens of km/h means shattering of the magnet. Use safety goggles when working with powerful specimens.

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. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.

1. Vertical hold

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Heat tolerance

*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.66

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 offered product is a very strong cylinder magnet, manufactured from advanced NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø5x3 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 5x3 / N38 component is characterized by a tolerance of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 0.84 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, guaranteeing 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 pull force of 8.25 N with a weight of only 0.44 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.

Due to the brittleness of the NdFeB material, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks chipping the coating 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 durability of the connection.

Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and operational stability. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø5x3), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our warehouse.

This model is characterized by dimensions Ø5x3 mm, which, at a weight of 0.44 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The value of 8.25 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.44 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.

This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 3 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. Such an arrangement is most desirable when connecting magnets in stacks (e.g., in filters) or when mounting in sockets at the bottom of a hole. On request, we can also produce versions magnetized through the diameter if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.

Advantages

Besides their magnetic performance, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

They do not lose magnetism, even during approximately 10 years – the decrease in strength is only ~1% (theoretically),
Neodymium magnets are highly resistant to demagnetization caused by external field sources,
Thanks to the smooth finish, the plating of nickel, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an professional appearance,
Magnets are characterized by exceptionally strong magnetic induction on the surface,
Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
In view of the option of flexible forming and customization to custom requirements, magnetic components can be created in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which increases their versatility,
Wide application in high-tech industry – they serve a role in HDD drives, electric motors, medical equipment, as well as complex engineering applications.
Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Cons of neodymium magnets and ways of using them

They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience 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
They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
Due to limitations in creating nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mount.
Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
Due to expensive raw materials, their price is relatively high,

Lifting parameters

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The force parameter is a theoretical maximum value executed under the following configuration:

with the contact of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
characterized by smoothness
with total lack of distance (without paint)
for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
at ambient temperature room level

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

During everyday use, the real power depends on a number of factors, presented from most significant:

Gap (between the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
Load vector – highest force is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is usually several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy steels decrease magnetic permeability and holding force.
Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
Thermal factor – hot environment reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

H&S for magnets

Danger to pacemakers

People with a pacemaker should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the functioning of the life-saving device.

Protect data

Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Shattering risk

Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.

Handling guide

Handle magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.

Compass and GPS

Remember: neodymium magnets generate a field that confuses precision electronics. Keep a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and GPS.

Nickel allergy

Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If skin irritation happens, immediately stop handling magnets and use protective gear.

Serious injuries

Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Be careful!

Product not for children

Absolutely store magnets away from children. Choking hazard is high, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are fatal.

Heat sensitivity

Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you require resistance above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Fire warning

Powder produced during cutting of magnets is self-igniting. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
