Shopping tips

Neodymium Cylindrical Magnets min. MW 8x4 / N38 are magnets made of neodymium in a cylindrical shape. They are known for their extremely powerful magnetic properties, which exceed ordinary ferrite magnets. Thanks to their strength, they are often used in products that require strong adhesion. The typical temperature resistance of such magnets is 80°C, but for cylindrical magnets, this temperature increases with their height. Moreover, various special coatings, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, are frequently applied to the surface of neodymium magnets to increase their durability to corrosion. The shape of a cylinder is also very popular among neodymium magnets. The magnet named MW 8x4 / N38 with a magnetic force 1.77 kg has a weight of only 1.51 grams.
Cylindrical neodymium magnets, also known as Nd2Fe14B, represent the strongest known material for magnet production. The technology of their production is complicated and includes sintering special neodymium alloys with other metals such as iron and boron. After appropriate processing, 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, although neodymium is a component of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. Therefore, they are coated with a coating of gold to protect them from corrosion. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, are brittle, 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. They should not be used in acidic, basic, organic environments or where solvents are present, as well as in water or oil. Additionally, they can damage data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not guaranteed.
In terms of purchasing of cylindrical neodymium magnets, several enterprises offer such products. One of the suggested suppliers is our company Dhit, located in Ożarów Mazowiecki, the address can be found directly in the contact tab. It is recommended to check the website for the current information and offers, and before visiting, please call.
Although, cylindrical neodymium magnets are useful in various applications, they can also constitute certain dangers. Due to their significant magnetic power, they can pull metallic objects with great force, which can lead to damaging skin as well as other surfaces, 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. Furthermore, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments, therefore they are coated with a thin protective layer. Generally, although they are handy, one should handle them carefully.
Neodymium magnets, with the formula Nd2Fe14B, are presently the very strong magnets on the market. They are produced through a advanced sintering process, which involves melting special alloys of neodymium with other metals and then forming and thermal processing. Their unmatched magnetic strength comes from the unique production technology and chemical composition.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are sensitive to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often coated with thin coatings, such as epoxy, to protect them from external factors and prolong their durability. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a deterioration of their magnetic strength, although there are particular types of neodymium magnets that can withstand temperatures up to 230°C.
As for potential dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic environments, basic environments, organic or solvent environments, unless they are insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an atmosphere containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.
A cylindrical neodymium magnet in classes N50 and N52 is a strong and extremely powerful metal object designed as a cylinder, that offers strong holding power and universal application. Attractive price, fast shipping, stability and broad range of uses.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their immense field intensity, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:

  • Their strength is maintained, and after approximately ten years, it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They remain magnetized despite exposure to strong external fields,
  • Because of the brilliant layer of nickel, the component looks aesthetically refined,
  • They have exceptional magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
  • They are suitable for high-temperature applications, operating effectively at 230°C+ due to advanced heat resistance and form-specific properties,
  • With the option for customized forming and targeted design, these magnets can be produced in numerous shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
  • Significant impact in modern technologies – they find application in HDDs, electric drives, diagnostic apparatus along with high-tech tools,
  • Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling strength in tiny dimensions, which makes them ideal in compact constructions

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:

  • They are prone to breaking when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, it is suggested to place them in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from fracture while also strengthens its overall strength,
  • Magnets lose power when exposed to temperatures exceeding 80°C. In most cases, this leads to irreversible performance loss (influenced by the magnet’s dimensions). To address this, we provide [AH] models with superior thermal resistance, able to operate even at 230°C or more,
  • Magnets exposed to moisture can rust. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we advise waterproof types made of rubber,
  • Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the restrictions in manufacturing threads directly in the magnet,
  • Health risk linked to microscopic shards may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is significant in the health of young users. It should also be noted that minuscule fragments from these products may complicate medical imaging after being swallowed,
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their cost is above average,

Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

The given pulling force of the magnet represents the maximum force, determined in a perfect environment, namely:

  • with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
  • having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
  • with a polished side
  • with no separation
  • with vertical force applied
  • in normal thermal conditions

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is conditioned by the following aspects, in descending order of importance:

  • 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 with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Handle Neodymium Magnets with Caution

Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.

Magnetic fields interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation for air and sea transport, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

Magnets made of neodymium are particularly delicate, resulting in their breakage.

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

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

Although magnets have shown to retain their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, this temperature may vary depending on the type of material, shape, and intended use of the magnet.

Neodymium Magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.

In the situation of holding a finger in the path of a neodymium magnet, in such a case, a cut or a fracture may occur.

  Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.

Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. They can be a significant choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing significant injuries, and even death.

Avoid contact with neodymium magnets if you have a nickel allergy.

Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

People with pacemakers are advised to avoid neodymium magnets.

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This is because many of these devices are equipped with a function that deactivates the device in a magnetic field.

Comparing neodymium magnets to ferrite magnets (found in speakers), they are 10 times stronger, and their strength can surprise you.

Read the information on our website on how to properly utilize neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body and unintentional damage to the magnets.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.

Keep neodymium magnets away from TV, wallet, and computer HDD.

Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. In addition, they can damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.
