1. Shear force

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

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely 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 Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.00

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 a very strong cylinder magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø8x10 mm, guarantees maximum efficiency. The MW 8x10 / N38 component features high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 1.84 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Additionally, 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 18.00 N with a weight of only 3.77 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in miniature devices and wherever every gram matters.
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 high repeatability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering a great economic balance and operational stability. If you need even stronger magnets in the same volume (Ø8x10), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard available off-the-shelf in our warehouse.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø8x10 mm, which, at a weight of 3.77 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 1.84 kg (force ~18.00 N), which, with such defined dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against external factors, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 10 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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They do not lose strength, even after around 10 years – the drop in lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
  • They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
  • By using a reflective coating of silver, the element has an proper look,
  • They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Due to the potential of flexible molding and adaptation to unique requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in a variety of forms and dimensions, which increases their versatility,
  • Universal use in modern technologies – they are commonly used in data components, electric motors, precision medical tools, as well as industrial machines.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices

Weaknesses

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
  • Neodymium magnets lose their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We suggest a housing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small components of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
  • High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities

Holding force characteristics

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat contributes to it?

The lifting capacity listed is a measurement result performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • using a plate made of high-permeability steel, functioning as a circuit closing element
  • possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with an ideally smooth contact surface
  • without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
  • during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
  • at conditions approx. 20°C

Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors

In real-world applications, the real power is determined by a number of factors, listed from the most important:
  • Clearance – the presence of foreign body (rust, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Plate thickness – too thin plate causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the flux to be lost to the other side.
  • Chemical composition of the base – mild steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Surface finish – ideal contact is obtained only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
  • Thermal factor – hot environment reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.

Warnings
Swallowing risk

Only for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, causing serious injuries. Store out of reach of kids and pets.

Electronic hazard

Intense magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Stay away of min. 10 cm.

Phone sensors

Note: neodymium magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.

Nickel allergy

Some people experience a contact allergy to Ni, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching may cause an allergic reaction. We strongly advise wear safety gloves.

Pinching danger

Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so immense that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.

Dust explosion hazard

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

Immense force

Handle magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and respect their power.

Eye protection

Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Implant safety

Medical warning: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.

Thermal limits

Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its magnetic structure and pulling force.

Warning! Learn more about risks in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
