1. Wall mount (shear)

*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

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

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

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

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.

This product is an extremely powerful cylinder magnet, manufactured from advanced NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø6x6 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 6x6 / N38 component is characterized by an accuracy of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with impressive force (approx. 1.14 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created 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 cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever every gram matters.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, we absolutely advise against force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional 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 strong enough for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest 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 holding force amounting to approximately 1.14 kg (force ~11.18 N), which, with such compact 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.
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. Such an arrangement is standard 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 as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Advantages

Besides their stability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They have constant strength, and over nearly 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • They maintain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
  • A magnet with a shiny gold surface looks better,
  • Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet remains impressive,
  • 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 precise machining and optimizing to concrete requirements,
  • Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in computer drives, electric motors, advanced medical instruments, and multitasking production systems.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a special holder, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
  • NdFeB magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of strength (a factor is the shape as well as 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 rust. Therefore when using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
  • We recommend casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complex forms.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Lifting parameters

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat it depends on?

The lifting capacity listed is a theoretical maximum value executed under the following configuration:
  • using a base made of mild steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
  • possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an ideally smooth touching surface
  • without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
  • for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
  • at standard ambient temperature

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

In real-world applications, the real power results from many variables, ranked from crucial:
  • Gap (between the magnet and the plate), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Force direction – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Steel thickness – insufficiently thick steel does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be lost to the other side.
  • Chemical composition of the base – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures decrease magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
  • Surface quality – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Material brittleness

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching shards into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Swallowing risk

Strictly store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are life-threatening.

Implant safety

Health Alert: Strong magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.

Nickel coating and allergies

A percentage of the population have a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact can result in dermatitis. It is best to use protective gloves.

Keep away from computers

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

Keep away from electronics

A strong magnetic field disrupts the operation of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.

Permanent damage

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

Serious injuries

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Combustion hazard

Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Immense force

Be careful. Rare earth magnets attract from a long distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can react.
