1. Vertical hold

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

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Power loss vs temp

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.44

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 products

The offered product is a very strong rod magnet, manufactured from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø6x2 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 6x2 / N38 component boasts an accuracy of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an ideal solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 0.86 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring lightning-fast 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 finds application in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 8.43 N with a weight of only 0.42 g, this rod is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever low weight is crucial.
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., 6.1 mm) using two-component 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.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and operational stability. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø6x2), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 6 mm and height 2 mm. The value of 8.43 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.42 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 2 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Strengths and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Pros

Apart from their strong holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (based on calculations),
  • They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to opposing magnetic fields,
  • In other words, due to the glossy surface of gold, the element looks attractive,
  • Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, 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...
  • Possibility of exact modeling and adapting to specific applications,
  • Versatile presence in electronics industry – they serve a role in HDD drives, electric motors, advanced medical instruments, also complex engineering applications.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Due to limitations in creating threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mount.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small components of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

Information about lifting capacity was defined for ideal contact conditions, assuming:
  • with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
  • possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an ideally smooth contact surface
  • without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

During everyday use, the actual holding force depends on a number of factors, ranked from the most important:
  • Distance (between the magnet and the plate), because even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Force direction – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Metal type – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Base smoothness – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Electronic devices

Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Hand protection

Big blocks can break fingers instantly. Do not place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.

Operating temperature

Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet to high heat will ruin its properties and strength.

Medical implants

Individuals with a ICD should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.

Magnets are brittle

Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

Conscious usage

Handle with care. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and connect with massive power, often faster than you can move away.

Impact on smartphones

A strong magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Keep magnets near a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.

Danger to the youngest

Neodymium magnets are not intended for children. Swallowing a few magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a direct threat to life and requires immediate surgery.

Flammability

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Allergic reactions

It is widely known that nickel (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If you have an allergy, prevent direct skin contact and choose encased magnets.
