1. Vertical hold

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

2. Plate thickness effect

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

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.64

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.

The presented product is an incredibly powerful rod magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø70x40 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 70x40 / N38 component features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 164.24 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, 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 fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 1611.16 N with a weight of only 1154.54 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices 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 precision component. To ensure stability in automation, 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 modeling and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø70x40), 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 Ø70x40 mm, which, at a weight of 1154.54 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The value of 1611.16 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 1154.54 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against oxidation, 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 70 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 as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

Apart from their consistent holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They do not lose strength, even after nearly 10 years – the drop in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • Neodymium magnets are highly resistant to demagnetization caused by external interference,
  • The use of an elegant finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
  • Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which allows for strong attraction,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • In view of the potential of precise shaping and customization to specialized requirements, magnetic components can be created in a variety of forms and dimensions, which increases their versatility,
  • Fundamental importance in high-tech industry – they are utilized in hard drives, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, as well as complex engineering applications.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Drawbacks and weaknesses of neodymium magnets: application proposals
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • We recommend casing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complex forms.
  • Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price exceeds standard values,

Pull force analysis

Maximum magnetic pulling forcewhat affects it?

Information about lifting capacity was defined for ideal contact conditions, including:
  • using a base made of mild steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • with an ground touching surface
  • without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
  • during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
  • at ambient temperature room level

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

Please note that the application force may be lower subject to the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Space between magnet and steel – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Direction of force – maximum parameter is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is usually several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
  • Steel type – mild steel attracts best. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
  • Base smoothness – the more even the plate, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Caution required

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

Shattering risk

Watch out for shards. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, launching sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Life threat

Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.

Power loss in heat

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Danger to the youngest

These products are not toys. Eating multiple magnets may result in them attracting across intestines, which poses a severe health hazard and necessitates urgent medical intervention.

Keep away from computers

Device Safety: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, timepieces).

Nickel allergy

Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If redness happens, cease handling magnets and wear gloves.

Physical harm

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Be careful!

Fire warning

Machining of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

GPS and phone interference

An intense magnetic field negatively affects the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a device to avoid breaking the sensors.
