1. Sliding resistance

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just a fraction of its perpendicular strength.

2. Efficiency vs thickness

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly weakens 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) = 0.27

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 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 offered product is an exceptionally strong cylinder magnet, composed of advanced NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø8x1.5 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 8x1.5 / N38 model features a tolerance of ±0.1mm and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 0.74 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in standard operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is perfect for building electric motors, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the pull force of 7.27 N with a weight of only 0.57 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Since our magnets have a tolerance of ±0.1mm, 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, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for industrial neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and high resistance to demagnetization. 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 store.
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 key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 0.74 kg (force ~7.27 N), which, with such compact dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. 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 1.5 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. 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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

Besides their remarkable pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (based on calculations),
  • They have excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties when exposed to external magnetic sources,
  • The use of an metallic layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
  • Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
  • Considering the possibility of flexible molding and adaptation to specialized needs, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which expands the range of possible applications,
  • Universal use in modern industrial fields – they find application in HDD drives, motor assemblies, medical equipment, and other advanced devices.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in miniature devices

Cons

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • Neodymium magnets lose force when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop 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 very resistant to heat
  • They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We recommend a housing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Lifting parameters

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

The force parameter is a theoretical maximum value performed under standard conditions:
  • using a base made of low-carbon steel, acting as a circuit closing element
  • with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
  • with an ideally smooth touching surface
  • under conditions of gap-free contact (surface-to-surface)
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

Please note that the application force may be lower depending on the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Space between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Load vector – highest force is available only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the plate is standardly several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Base massiveness – insufficiently thick sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
  • Metal type – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
  • Base smoothness – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity was measured using a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.

H&S for magnets
Shattering risk

Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, launching sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.

Handling guide

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can move away.

Threat to navigation

A strong magnetic field disrupts the operation of compasses in smartphones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a device to avoid damaging the sensors.

Allergic reactions

A percentage of the population suffer from a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in dermatitis. We suggest use protective gloves.

Flammability

Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Choking Hazard

Adult use only. Small elements can be swallowed, causing serious injuries. Store out of reach of children and animals.

Heat warning

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

Danger to pacemakers

Individuals with a ICD must maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the functioning of the implant.

Serious injuries

Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Keep away from computers

Intense magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.

Security! More info about hazards in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
