1. Shear force

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Temperature resistance

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.89

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.

This product is an incredibly powerful rod magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø6x6 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 6x6 / N38 model features high dimensional repeatability and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 1.14 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is ideal for building electric motors, advanced sensors, and efficient filters, where field concentration on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 11.18 N with a weight of only 1.27 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics 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., 6.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure stability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø6x6), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our store.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø6x6 mm, which, at a weight of 1.27 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 1.14 kg (force ~11.18 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high grade of the NdFeB material. 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 6 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of neodymium magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their strong magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They have constant strength, and over more than 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
  • They show high resistance to demagnetization induced by external magnetic fields,
  • The use of an shiny finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
  • Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to flexibility in shaping and the capacity to modify to complex applications,
  • Significant place in future technologies – they are used in data components, electromotive mechanisms, precision medical tools, also modern systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: tips and applications.
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
  • Limited possibility of creating nuts in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is a housing - mounting mechanism.
  • Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price is higher than average,

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat contributes to it?

The load parameter shown represents the limit force, recorded under laboratory conditions, namely:
  • using a sheet made of mild steel, functioning as a ideal flux conductor
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • with an ideally smooth contact surface
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
  • in neutral thermal conditions

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

In real-world applications, the real power is determined by many variables, presented from most significant:
  • Gap between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) drastically reduces the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was assessed with the use of a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Shattering risk

Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.

Respect the power

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

Keep away from electronics

GPS units and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Bone fractures

Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Nickel allergy

Certain individuals have a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching can result in an allergic reaction. It is best to wear safety gloves.

Product not for children

These products are not toys. Eating several magnets may result in them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a direct threat to life and requires immediate surgery.

Mechanical processing

Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Demagnetization risk

Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Electronic hazard

Intense magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Stay away of min. 10 cm.

Pacemakers

Medical warning: Neodymium magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
