1. Sliding resistance

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its max power.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

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

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.00

The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. 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.

Other proposals

This product is an exceptionally strong rod magnet, manufactured from modern NdFeB material, which, with dimensions of Ø8x10 mm, guarantees optimal power. The MW 8x10 / N38 model boasts high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a magnetic rod with significant force (approx. 1.84 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring lightning-fast order fulfillment. Additionally, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating effectively protects it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
This model is created for building generators, advanced Hall effect sensors, and efficient magnetic separators, where maximum induction on a small surface counts. Thanks to the high power of 18.00 N with a weight of only 3.77 g, this rod 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 epoxy glues. To ensure stability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which are safe for nickel and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most popular standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio and operational stability. If you need the strongest 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 store.
The presented product is a neodymium magnet with precisely defined parameters: diameter 8 mm and height 10 mm. The value of 18.00 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 3.77 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface 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 8 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 diametrically if your project requires it.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.

Strengths

Besides their immense pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • Their magnetic field remains stable, and after around 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They possess excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties due to external magnetic sources,
  • Thanks to the reflective finish, the plating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver gives an aesthetic appearance,
  • They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of custom forming as well as optimizing to concrete conditions,
  • Versatile presence in modern technologies – they are used in computer drives, drive modules, medical devices, and multitasking production systems.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited ability of making threads in the magnet and complex forms - recommended is cover - magnet mounting.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small components of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price exceeds standard values,

Holding force characteristics

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what contributes to it?

The specified lifting capacity refers to the limit force, measured under laboratory conditions, specifically:
  • with the contact of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • at standard ambient temperature

What influences lifting capacity in practice

Bear in mind that the magnet holding may be lower depending on elements below, in order of importance:
  • Gap 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 – maximum parameter is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may attract less.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Thermal factor – hot environment reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.

Warnings
Crushing risk

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.

Mechanical processing

Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.

Material brittleness

Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are very brittle. Impact of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.

Health Danger

Medical warning: Neodymium magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Handling rules

Use magnets with awareness. Their immense force can surprise even experienced users. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.

Magnetic media

Data protection: Strong magnets can ruin payment cards and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).

Demagnetization risk

Control the heat. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its magnetic structure and strength.

Allergy Warning

Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If skin irritation occurs, cease working with magnets and use protective gear.

GPS and phone interference

Navigation devices and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.

Danger to the youngest

Always keep magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is high, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
