Pulling power weakens drastically with every subsequent millimeter of distance. Note that even a microscopic distance (e.g., dirt, paint, rust) significantly weakens the grip. Neodymiums hold strongest at the point of direct contact; air break kills the power. Notice how quickly the parameters drop, when the magnet does not touch flatly to the metal substrate. When calculating the mounting, avoid additional spacers.

The following data calculates the approximate shear load required to start the sliding of the magnet downwards against a vertical steel plate (considering standard friction coefficient). The holding force varies with the distance between the magnet and the metal.

Table 3: Vertical assembly (sliding) - behavior on slippery surfaces
MW 8x1.5 / N38

Surface type	Friction coefficient / % Mocy	Max load (kg/lbs/g/N)
Raw steel	µ = 0.3 30% Nominalnej Siły	0.22 kg / 0.49 LBS 222.0 g / 2.2 N
Painted steel (standard)	µ = 0.2 20% Nominalnej Siły	0.15 kg / 0.33 LBS 148.0 g / 1.5 N
Oily/slippery steel	µ = 0.1 10% Nominalnej Siły	0.07 kg / 0.16 LBS 74.0 g / 0.7 N
Magnet with anti-slip rubber	µ = 0.5 50% Nominalnej Siły	0.37 kg / 0.82 LBS 370.0 g / 3.6 N

When placing a holder on a vertical surface (e.g., a board), it will only hold only approx. 20%-30% of its maximum pull force. Gravity as well as a weak degree of grip mean that holders slip easier than they detach. Designing a wall mount? Remember that the shear force is significantly lower than the maximum static pull force. On a smooth steel, the magnet will slip down under a noticeably lighter load. Application of an anti-slip pad can significantly raise the stability.

12 mm	100%	0.74 kg / 1.63 LBS 740.0 g / 7.3 N

A too thin steel cannot take in the entire magnetic field, which weakens actual performance of the holder. Should you mount a strong magnet to a thin surface, the field will penetrate right through and the attraction force will be weaker. To utilize 100% of this magnet's power, you need a suitably thick element of metal. The saturation phenomenon causes that on thin elements (e.g., car bodies), the holder shows lower pull force. We suggest choosing the steel dimension based on the following data.

Classic neodymiums change their properties power above the temperature limit. Protect against heat – excessive heat can permanently demagnetize this magnet. With increasing heat, the magnet's capacity temporarily decreases. Avoid using this magnet in hot environments exceeding its operating temperature limit. Exceeding the critical threshold will lead to destruction of magnetism.

*Important note: Heat tolerance depends not only on the material grade, as well as the dimension ratios. Thin magnets (pancake types) risk losing magnetic properties at lower temperatures compared to rod magnets. Red status in the table signals permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two magnetic products attract each other from a much further distance than a magnet and sheet combination. Such a system of magnet-to-magnet generates a stronger field and a further horizon of action. Want to build a solid fastener? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a steel. Exercise caution that when connecting a pair of magnets, the collision energy is extreme. The levitation is a bit weaker than the connection force, but still impressive.
*The magnetic induction between like poles reaches ~0 Gs in the exact middle between the magnets (caused by magnetic field nullification).
* Figures show shear force of a pair of identical magnets (friction coefficient ~0.15 for Ni-Ni coating).

Powerful magnet radiation poses a real danger to electronics as well as medical implants. These neodymiums produce a flux that disrupts operation of digital equipment. Be aware: the unseen radiation passes through tissues and housings. Special caution must be exercised by people with cochlear implants and insulin pumps. Influence will be felt by: mechanical watches, car keys, speakers, and displays. Do not bring the product near payment cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Magnetic elements are prone to chipping – a strong collision with metal risks their cracking. Pay attention to connection velocity – a magnet released freely turns into a projectile. Kinetic force can cause material chips or dangerous crushing to fingers. Hold the magnet firmly during mounting so it doesn't hit violently against the steel surface. A collision at high speed almost guarantees destruction of the neodymium. Wear eye protection when handling with large magnets.

Rust risk: Standard nickel requires drying after every contact with moisture; lack of maintenance will lead to rust spots.

Water displaces steel, making heavy objects slightly lighter. Note: for permanent underwater work, we recommend magnets with an anti-corrosive (epoxy) coating.

1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only a fraction of its max power.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically weakens the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient P_c (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.27

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 a very strong rod magnet, composed of advanced NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø8x1.5 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 8x1.5 / N38 model is characterized by a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 0.74 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Moreover, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.

It finds application in DIY projects, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 7.27 N with a weight of only 0.57 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices 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., 8.1 mm) using two-component epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.

Magnets N38 are strong enough for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where excessive miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø8x1.5), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our warehouse.

This model is characterized by dimensions Ø8x1.5 mm, which, at a weight of 0.57 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The value of 7.27 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 0.57 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.

This rod magnet is magnetized axially (along the height of 1.5 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.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnets.

Pros

Apart from their notable holding force, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:

They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external fields,
In other words, due to the glossy finish of nickel, the element looks attractive,
The surface of neodymium magnets generates a maximum magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
Due to the ability of free molding and customization to unique requirements, magnetic components can be created in a variety of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
Key role in future technologies – they are commonly used in magnetic memories, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:

To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of power (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 advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
We suggest cover - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities

Lifting parameters

Maximum holding power of the magnet – what contributes to it?

Magnet power was defined for optimal configuration, taking into account:

on a plate made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic flux
whose thickness is min. 10 mm
characterized by lack of roughness
without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
in temp. approx. 20°C

Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice

In practice, the actual holding force depends on a number of factors, listed from the most important:

Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
Angle of force application – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is standardly 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 passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

Safe handling of NdFeB magnets

Do not underestimate power

Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can react.

Hand protection

Large magnets can crush fingers instantly. Under no circumstances put your hand between two strong magnets.

Nickel coating and allergies

A percentage of the population have a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling can result in an allergic reaction. It is best to use safety gloves.

Power loss in heat

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you require resistance above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Keep away from electronics

GPS units and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.

Shattering risk

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

Adults only

NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of a few magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a severe health hazard and necessitates urgent medical intervention.

Cards and drives

Intense magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Combustion hazard

Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Medical interference

Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.
