Neodymium Cylindrical Magnets i.e. MW 8x5 / N38 are magnets made of neodymium in a cylinder form. They are valued for their extremely powerful magnetic properties, which exceed traditional iron magnets. Thanks to their power, they are frequently employed in devices that require strong adhesion. The typical temperature resistance of these magnets is 80 degrees C, but for cylindrical magnets, this temperature rises with the growth of the magnet. Moreover, various special coatings, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, are often applied to the surface of neodymium magnets to enhance their durability to corrosion. The shape of a cylinder is also one of the most popular among neodymium magnets. The magnet named MW 8x5 / N38 with a magnetic strength 2.21 kg weighs only 1.88 grams.

Cylindrical neodymium magnets, also known as Nd₂Fe₁₄B, are the strongest known material for magnet production. Their production process is complicated and includes melting special neodymium alloys along 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 thin layer of epoxy 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. For this reason, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.

In terms of safety, there are many 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, many companies offer such products. One of the recommended suppliers is our company Dhit, situated in Ożarów Mazowiecki, the address can be found directly in the contact tab. It's always worth check the site for the current information and offers, and before visiting, we recommend calling.

Although, cylindrical neodymium magnets are very practical in many applications, they can also pose certain dangers. Because of their significant magnetic power, they can pull metallic objects with uncontrolled force, which can lead to damaging skin as well as other materials, especially fingers. Do not use neodymium magnets near electronic devices or data storage devices, such as credit cards, as they can damage these devices in terms of magnetic recording. Moreover, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments, therefore they are coated with a thin protective layer. Generally, although they are handy, they should be handled carefully.

Neodymium magnets, with the formula Nd₂Fe₁₄B, are at this time the strong magnets on the market. They are produced through a advanced sintering process, which involves fusing special alloys of neodymium with additional metals and then shaping and thermal processing. Their powerful magnetic strength comes from the exceptional production technology and chemical structure.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are sensitive to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often covered with thin coatings, such as nickel, to protect them from external factors and prolong their durability. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a deterioration of their magnetic properties, although there are specific 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 conditions, basic conditions, organic or solvent environments, unless they are adequately insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may forfeit their magnetic properties.

A cylindrical neodymium magnet in classes N52 and N50 is a strong and powerful magnetic product with the shape of a cylinder, featuring high force and universal applicability. Attractive price, 24h delivery, ruggedness and broad range of uses.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

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

They do not lose their even during nearly 10 years – the loss of lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
They show exceptional resistance to demagnetization from external field exposure,
By applying a reflective layer of nickel, the element gains a sleek look,
They possess significant magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
Neodymium magnets are known for very high magnetic induction and the ability to work at temperatures up to 230°C or higher (depending on the geometry),
With the option for customized forming and precise design, these magnets can be produced in numerous shapes and sizes, greatly improving engineering flexibility,
Significant impact in cutting-edge sectors – they find application in hard drives, electric motors, medical equipment and other advanced devices,
Thanks to their concentrated strength, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, while occupying minimal space,

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:

They may fracture when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, they should be placed in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage , and at the same time increases its overall strength,
They lose strength at increased temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent decline in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the dimensions and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
Magnets exposed to humidity can degrade. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we recommend waterproof types made of rubber,
Limited ability to create precision features in the magnet – the use of a housing is recommended,
Safety concern linked to microscopic shards may arise, especially if swallowed, which is crucial in the family environments. Furthermore, miniature parts from these devices have the potential to interfere with diagnostics when ingested,
Due to a complex production process, their cost is above average,

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?

The given lifting capacity of the magnet represents the maximum lifting force, measured under optimal conditions, specifically:

using a steel plate with low carbon content, acting as a magnetic circuit closure
of a thickness of at least 10 mm
with a smooth surface
with zero air gap
under perpendicular detachment force
at room temperature

Key elements affecting lifting force

The lifting capacity of a magnet depends on in practice key elements, according to their importance:

Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes 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 assessed using a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets

Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.

Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.

The magnet is coated with nickel. Therefore, exercise caution 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.

Magnets may crack or crumble with careless connecting to each other. Remember not to move them to each other or hold them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.

Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.

Although magnets are generally resilient, their ability to maintain their magnetic potency can be influenced by factors like the type of material used, the magnet's shape, and the intended purpose for which it is employed.

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.

Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.

Neodymium magnets are known for their fragility, which can cause them to crumble.

Magnets made of neodymium are highly delicate, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will crumble. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel surface, but they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of connection between the magnets, sharp metal fragments can be dispersed in different directions.

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

Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In the case of small magnets, they can be swallowed and cause choking. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.

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

Neodymium magnets produce intense magnetic fields that can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Remember not to place neodymium magnets close to these electronic devices.

Do not bring neodymium magnets close to GPS and smartphones.

Neodymium magnets are a source of intense magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.

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