1. Shear force

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

2. Efficiency vs thickness

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

3. Thermal stability

*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

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.

Field Strength

See also offers

The offered product is an exceptionally strong cylinder magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø8x10 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item features an accuracy of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it an ideal solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with impressive force (approx. 1.84 kg), this product is in stock from our European logistics center, ensuring quick order fulfillment. Additionally, its Ni-Cu-Ni coating secures it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, ensuring an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in DIY projects, advanced robotics, 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 rod 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 epoxy glues. To ensure long-term durability in automation, anaerobic resins are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Grade N38 is the most frequently chosen standard for professional neodymium magnets, offering an optimal price-to-power ratio 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 in continuous sale 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 compact dimensions, proves the high power of the NdFeB material. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which protects the surface against oxidation, 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 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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of rare earth magnets.

Advantages

Apart from their superior power, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
  • They feature excellent resistance to magnetism drop when exposed to opposing magnetic fields,
  • In other words, due to the smooth finish of nickel, the element looks attractive,
  • Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet is very high,
  • Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to versatility in shaping and the capacity to modify to specific needs,
  • Fundamental importance in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in computer drives, motor assemblies, advanced medical instruments, and technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices

Weaknesses

Problematic aspects of neodymium magnets and ways of using them
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • Neodymium magnets decrease their strength 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
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material stable to moisture, in case of application outdoors
  • We recommend a housing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small components of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is higher than average,

Lifting parameters

Maximum magnetic pulling forcewhat affects it?

The declared magnet strength represents the maximum value, obtained under laboratory conditions, meaning:
  • using a sheet made of low-carbon steel, serving as a circuit closing element
  • with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
  • characterized by smoothness
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
  • at standard ambient temperature

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

Real force impacted by working environment parameters, mainly (from priority):
  • Distance – the presence of foreign body (rust, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which reduces capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
  • Direction of force – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the plate is typically several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Metal type – not every steel attracts identically. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
  • Plate texture – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Do not drill into magnets

Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.

Power loss in heat

Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and strength.

Sensitization to coating

It is widely known that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and choose coated magnets.

Keep away from electronics

Remember: neodymium magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Maintain a separation from your phone, tablet, and GPS.

No play value

Neodymium magnets are not toys. Swallowing several magnets may result in them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a severe health hazard and requires immediate surgery.

Electronic devices

Data protection: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Crushing force

Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will join instantly with a force of massive weight, crushing everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!

Powerful field

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a long distance and connect with massive power, often faster than you can move away.

Medical implants

For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.

Magnet fragility

Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
