Cylindrical Neodymium Magnets i.e. MW 8x20 / N38 are magnets created of neodymium in a cylindrical shape. They are valued for their very strong magnetic properties, which exceed traditional ferrite magnets. Thanks to their power, they are frequently employed in devices that require powerful holding. The typical temperature resistance of these magnets is 80 degrees C, but for cylindrical magnets, this temperature increases with the growth of the magnet. Additionally, various special coatings, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, are frequently applied to the surface of neodymium magnets to increase their resistance to corrosion. The cylindrical shape is as well one of the most popular among neodymium magnets. The magnet with the designation MW 8x20 / N38 with a magnetic lifting capacity of 8.85 kg weighs only 7.54 grams.

Cylindrical neodymium magnets, often referred to as Nd₂Fe₁₄B, represent the strongest known material for magnet production. Their production process requires a specialized approach and includes melting special neodymium alloys along with other metals such as iron and boron. After a series of processes, such as heat and mechanical treatment, the magnets become ready for use in varied applications, such as electric motors, audio-video equipment, and in the automotive and aerospace industries.
Moreover, even though neodymium is a component of the strongest magnets, they are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a coating of epoxy to increase their durability. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, easily break, which requires care during their handling. Therefore, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.

In terms of safety, there are several recommendations regarding the use of these magnets. It is advisable to avoid their use in acidic, basic, organic environments or where solvents are present, and also in water or oil. Additionally, they can damage data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not always certain.

In terms of purchasing of cylindrical neodymium magnets, several enterprises offer such products. One of the suggested suppliers is our company Dhit, situated in Ożarów Mazowiecki, the address is available directly in the contact tab. It is recommended to check the site for the latest information and offers, and before visiting, we recommend calling.

Although, cylindrical neodymium magnets are very useful in many applications, they can also pose certain dangers. Due to their significant magnetic power, they can attract metallic objects with uncontrolled force, which can lead to crushing skin and other materials, especially be careful with fingers. One should not use neodymium magnets near equipment or data storage devices, such as credit cards, as they can damage these devices in terms of magnetic recording. Moreover, neodymium magnets are prone to corrosion in humid environments, therefore they are coated with a thin e.g., nickel layer. In short, although they are handy, one should handle them carefully.

Neodymium magnets, with the formula Nd₂Fe₁₄B, are presently the strong magnets on the market. They are produced through a advanced sintering process, which involves melting special alloys of neodymium with additional metals and then shaping and thermal processing. Their unmatched magnetic strength comes from the specific production technology and chemical structure.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often coated with thin coatings, such as silver, to shield them from external factors and prolong their durability. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a loss of their magnetic strength, although there are particular types of neodymium magnets that can tolerate temperatures up to 230°C.
As for potential dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic conditions, basic conditions, organic or solvent environments, unless they are properly protected. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.

A cylindrical magnet of class N50 and N52 is a strong and powerful magnetic piece shaped like a cylinder, that provides strong holding power and versatile application. Attractive price, 24h delivery, durability and versatility.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their pulling strength, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

They retain their magnetic properties for around 10 years – the drop is just ~1% (based on simulations),
They are extremely resistant to demagnetization caused by external field interference,
Thanks to the shiny finish and nickel coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
They have exceptional magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
These magnets tolerate elevated temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to build),
Thanks to the freedom in shaping and the capability to adapt to specific requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in diverse shapes and sizes, which expands their usage potential,
Important function in new technology industries – they serve a purpose in hard drives, electric drives, clinical machines as well as technologically developed systems,
Compactness – despite their small size, they deliver powerful magnetism, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

They can break when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, we recommend in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage and additionally reinforces its overall strength,
They lose power at elevated temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent degradation in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the geometry and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
They rust in a humid environment. If exposed to rain, we recommend using moisture-resistant magnets, such as those made of rubber,
Limited ability to create internal holes in the magnet – the use of a mechanical support is recommended,
Safety concern due to small fragments may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is notable in the family environments. Moreover, miniature parts from these devices might complicate medical imaging when ingested,
In cases of large-volume purchasing, neodymium magnet cost may not be economically viable,

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what contributes to it?

The given holding capacity of the magnet corresponds to the highest holding force, assessed in the best circumstances, specifically:

with mild steel, used as a magnetic flux conductor
with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
with a refined outer layer
with no separation
with vertical force applied
at room temperature

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is affected by the following aspects, arranged from the most important to the least relevant:

Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.

* Lifting capacity was measured using a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap {between} the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Handle with Care: Neodymium Magnets

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.

Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.

Magnets will attract each other within a distance of several to around 10 cm from each other. Don't put your fingers in the path of magnet attraction, because a serious injury may occur. Depending on how massive the neodymium magnets are, they can lead to a cut or alternatively a fracture.

Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets generate intense magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious if you have an allergy.

Studies show a small percentage of people have allergies to certain metals, including nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever created, and their power can shock you.

To use magnets properly, it is best to familiarize yourself with our information beforehand. This will help you avoid significant harm to your body and the magnets themselves.

You should maintain neodymium magnets at a safe distance from the wallet, computer, and TV.

Magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other similar devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.

Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.

Maintain neodymium magnets far from youngest children.

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.

Neodymium magnets are characterized by being fragile, which can cause them to become damaged.

In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. They are coated with a shiny nickel plating similar to steel, but they are not as hard. At the moment of collision between the magnets, tiny sharp metal pieces can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.

Exercise caution!
