1. Sliding resistance

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

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly limits the holding force.

3. Thermal stability

*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.19

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 presented product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, made from advanced NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø8x15 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. The MW 8x15 / N38 model boasts a tolerance of ±0.1mm and professional build quality, making it a perfect solution for the most demanding engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 1.47 kg), this product is available off-the-shelf from our European logistics center, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its triple-layer Ni-Cu-Ni coating shields it against corrosion in typical operating conditions, guaranteeing an aesthetic appearance and durability for years.
It successfully proves itself in modeling, advanced automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a fastening or actuating element. Thanks to the pull force of 14.45 N with a weight of only 5.65 g, this cylindrical magnet is indispensable in electronics 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 stability in industry, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing durability of the connection.
Magnets NdFeB grade N38 are strong enough for 90% of applications in modeling and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø8x15), 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 Ø8x15 mm, which, at a weight of 5.65 g, makes it an element with impressive magnetic energy density. The key parameter here is the holding force amounting to approximately 1.47 kg (force ~14.45 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.
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 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 through the diameter if your project requires it.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Pros

Besides their tremendous strength, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • Their power is maintained, and after around 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
  • Neodymium magnets are remarkably resistant to demagnetization caused by external interference,
  • By covering with a smooth coating of nickel, the element gains an professional look,
  • Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet turns out to be maximum,
  • 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 detailed forming and adapting to defined conditions,
  • Fundamental importance in modern technologies – they serve a role in data components, motor assemblies, advanced medical instruments, also other advanced devices.
  • Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,

Cons

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
  • We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
  • They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Limited possibility of making nuts in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is a housing - magnetic holder.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small elements of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
  • Due to neodymium price, their price is higher than average,

Holding force characteristics

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditionswhat it depends on?

The force parameter is a measurement result conducted under specific, ideal conditions:
  • using a base made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a ideal flux conductor
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • with a plane free of scratches
  • under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
  • for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • in stable room temperature

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

Please note that the application force will differ influenced by the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Space between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) diminishes the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
  • Steel thickness – too thin plate causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be wasted to the other side.
  • Material type – the best choice is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
  • Surface structure – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness creates an air distance.
  • Heat – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Adults only

These products are not intended for children. Swallowing a few magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a critical condition and requires immediate surgery.

Mechanical processing

Powder created during cutting of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.

Medical implants

People with a heart stimulator must maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the functioning of the life-saving device.

Magnetic interference

Note: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a safe distance from your phone, device, and navigation systems.

Physical harm

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Powerful field

Be careful. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can react.

Thermal limits

Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).

Protect data

Data protection: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).

Metal Allergy

Certain individuals suffer from a contact allergy to nickel, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Extended handling can result in a rash. We strongly advise wear protective gloves.

Fragile material

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, launching sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

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