Physical modeling of the assembly - report

Presented information represent the result of a mathematical calculation. Results were calculated on models for the class Nd₂Fe₁₄B. Actual performance may differ from theoretical values. Treat these calculations as a preliminary roadmap during assembly planning.

Table 1: Static force (pull vs distance) - power drop
MW 6x1 / N38

Distance (mm)	Induction (Gauss) / mT	Pull Force (kg/lbs/g/N)	Risk Status
0 mm	1958 Gs 195.8 mT	0.35 kg / 0.77 lbs 350.0 g / 3.4 N	weak grip
1 mm	1479 Gs 147.9 mT	0.20 kg / 0.44 lbs 199.7 g / 2.0 N	weak grip

10 mm	43 Gs 4.3 mT	0.00 kg / 0.00 lbs 0.2 g / 0.0 N	weak grip
15 mm	14 Gs 1.4 mT	0.00 kg / 0.00 lbs 0.0 g / 0.0 N	weak grip
20 mm	6 Gs 0.6 mT	0.00 kg / 0.00 lbs 0.0 g / 0.0 N	weak grip

50 mm	0 Gs 0.0 mT	0.00 kg / 0.00 lbs 0.0 g / 0.0 N	weak grip

Pulling power decreases sharply with every subsequent millimeter of gap. Keep in mind that every additional insulation layer (e.g., contamination, varnish, veneer) significantly weakens the grip. Neodymiums hold optimally during direct contact; air break kills the power. Notice how flashily the pull force drop, when the magnet does not touch tightly to the metal substrate. When planning the mounting, eliminate additional spacers.

Table 2: Slippage force (wall)
MW 6x1 / N38

Distance (mm)	Friction coefficient	Pull Force (kg/lbs/g/N)

50 mm	Stal (~0.2)	0.00 kg / 0.00 lbs 0.0 g / 0.0 N

This section calculates the theoretical shear load necessary to start the downward movement of the magnet down on a upright steel wall (considering typical friction coefficient). This parameter varies with the separation distance between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Wall mounting (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MW 6x1 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.11 kg / 0.23 lbs 105.0 g / 1.0 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.07 kg / 0.15 lbs 70.0 g / 0.7 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.03 kg / 0.08 lbs 35.0 g / 0.3 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.18 kg / 0.39 lbs 175.0 g / 1.7 N

When placing a holder on a vertical surface (e.g., a board), it will maintain only approx. 1/5 of nominal attraction strength. Gravity and a low friction coefficient influence the fact that products slide down easier than they pull off. Want to create a wall mount? Note that the sliding force is much weaker than the maximum static pull force. On a smooth steel, the holder will give way down under a noticeably lighter weight. Utilizing a rubberized layer can effectively improve the result.

Table 4: Material efficiency (substrate influence) - sheet metal selection
MW 6x1 / N38

Steel thickness (mm)	% power	Real pull force (kg/lbs/g/N)
0.5 mm	10%	0.03 kg / 0.08 lbs 35.0 g / 0.3 N
1 mm	25%	0.09 kg / 0.19 lbs 87.5 g / 0.9 N
2 mm	50%	0.18 kg / 0.39 lbs 175.0 g / 1.7 N
3 mm	75%	0.26 kg / 0.58 lbs 262.5 g / 2.6 N
5 mm	100%	0.35 kg / 0.77 lbs 350.0 g / 3.4 N
10 mm	100%	0.35 kg / 0.77 lbs 350.0 g / 3.4 N
11 mm	100%	0.35 kg / 0.77 lbs 350.0 g / 3.4 N
12 mm	100%	0.35 kg / 0.77 lbs 350.0 g / 3.4 N

A thin metal plate is not enough to absorb the full magnetic flux, which weakens actual performance of the holder. If you install a neodymium to a too thin substrate, the field will pass right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To achieve the maximum of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid element of metal. The material oversaturation means that on delicate walls (e.g., thin profiles), the magnet holds weaker. We recommend selecting the steel thickness based on the following data.

Table 5: Thermal resistance (material behavior) - resistance threshold
MW 6x1 / N38

Ambient temp. (°C)	Power loss	Remaining pull (kg/lbs/g/N)	Status
20 °C	0.0%	0.35 kg / 0.77 lbs 350.0 g / 3.4 N	OK
40 °C	-2.2%	0.34 kg / 0.75 lbs 342.3 g / 3.4 N	OK
60 °C	-4.4%	0.33 kg / 0.74 lbs 334.6 g / 3.3 N
80 °C	-6.6%	0.33 kg / 0.72 lbs 326.9 g / 3.2 N
100 °C	-28.8%	0.25 kg / 0.55 lbs 249.2 g / 2.4 N

Classic neodymiums lose strength past the thermal threshold. Watch out for overheating – excessive heat can permanently damage this magnet. With increasing heat, the neodymium's capacity momentarily drops. Do not use this product in hot environments higher than its safe range. Ignoring the limit will lead to permanent loss of magnetism.

*Engineering note: Thermal stability depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (pancake types) risk losing magnetic properties sooner than long magnets. The danger warning in the table points to permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two strong neodymiums attract each other from a significantly greater distance than a neodymium and metal setup. The connection of two magnets generates a stronger field and a wider radius of operation. Want to build a solid fastener? Apply two magnets instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Exercise caution that when attracting two neodymiums, the collision energy is huge. The levitation is a bit weaker than the connection force, but still large.
*The magnetic induction for N-N configuration reaches ~0 Gs at the geometric center of the gap (caused by magnetic field nullification).
Important: Calculations refer to sliding force of a pair of identical magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Extremely neodym field poses a large risk to IT equipment as well as medical implants. These neodymiums produce a flux that disrupts operation of digital equipment. Notice: the invisible magnetic field penetrates the body and glass. Exceptional care must be exercised by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Influence will be felt by: automatic timepieces, car keys, membranes, and screens. Do not place the magnet near cards, hard drives, or precise measuring instruments.

Table 8: Dynamics (kinetic energy) - collision effects
MW 6x1 / N38

Start from (mm)	Speed (km/h)	Energy (J)
10 mm	41.18 km/h (11.44 m/s)	0.01 J
30 mm	71.31 km/h (19.81 m/s)	0.04 J
50 mm	92.06 km/h (25.57 m/s)	0.07 J
100 mm	130.20 km/h (36.17 m/s)	0.14 J

Magnetic elements are very brittle – a strong collision with metal risks their cracking. Control the attraction moment – a magnet released freely speeds with massive force. Kinetic force can destroy the magnet or injury to fingers. Always hold the magnet during installation 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 magnet. Use safety goggles 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.

Contrary to myths, water does not block the magnetic field. As a result, your magnet will pull a heavier object from the bottom than if you lifted it in the air.

1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only ~20% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.

3. Heat tolerance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.25

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 presented product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, produced from modern NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø6x1 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 6x1 / N38 model boasts high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 0.35 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects 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 field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 3.41 N with a weight of only 0.21 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices 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 chipping the coating of this precision component. To ensure long-term durability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for the majority 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 (Ø6x1), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.

This model is characterized by dimensions Ø6x1 mm, which, at a weight of 0.21 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The value of 3.41 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.21 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 6 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.

Pros and cons of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Pros

Besides their stability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:

They retain full power for almost 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (based on simulations),
Magnets effectively protect themselves against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
A magnet with a smooth silver surface looks better,
Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which allows for strong attraction,
Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for action at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
Thanks to modularity in constructing and the capacity to adapt to client solutions,
Wide application in advanced technology sectors – they find application in HDD drives, electric motors, advanced medical instruments, also industrial machines.
Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Disadvantages

Characteristics of disadvantages of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.

At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
NdFeB magnets lose force when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of power (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore while using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
We suggest casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in producing nuts inside the magnet and complex forms.
Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small components of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Holding force characteristics

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?

The specified lifting capacity concerns the limit force, obtained under ideal test conditions, specifically:

with the application of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
with an ideally smooth touching surface
without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
under axial force direction (90-degree angle)
in neutral thermal conditions

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

Effective lifting capacity is influenced by specific conditions, mainly (from priority):

Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), as even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of generating force.
Steel grade – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, reducing force.
Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.

Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.

H&S for magnets

Flammability

Dust created during grinding of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.

Do not give to children

Adult use only. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Keep out of reach of children and animals.

Bone fractures

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Life threat

Medical warning: Strong magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Safe operation

Handle magnets with awareness. Their huge power can surprise even professionals. Stay alert and do not underestimate their power.

Demagnetization risk

Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Shattering risk

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Phone sensors

A strong magnetic field disrupts the operation of compasses in phones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.

Cards and drives

Data protection: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Sensitization to coating

Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If redness happens, cease handling magnets and use protective gear.
