Grip strength weakens significantly with every mm of distance. Note that every additional insulation layer (e.g., contamination, varnish, dust) noticeably weakens the grip. Magnetic products operate optimally during direct contact; gap kills the force. Analyze how rapidly the parameters drop, when the magnet does not touch flatly to the steel surface. When planning the arrangement, eliminate redundant distances.

The table below shows the estimated force necessary to cause the downward movement of the magnet down on a upright steel plate (assuming typical friction coefficient). The holding force depends on the gap size between the magnet and the surface.

When placing a element on a vertical wall (e.g., a car body), it will only hold just about 1/5 of nominal attraction strength. Gravity and a weak degree of grip mean that holders slide down faster than they pull off. Planning a hanger? Note that the shear force is noticeably lower than the maximum static pull force. On a smooth steel, the element will give way down under a much lighter load. Using a rubber layer can drastically improve the result.

A thin sheet is not enough to focus the full magnetic flux, which squanders power of the magnet. If you attach a powerful product to a thin surface, the magnetism will pass right through and the pull force will drop sharply. To utilize the maximum of this magnet's power, you require a sufficiently solid piece of metal. The material oversaturation means that on thin elements (e.g., car bodies), the holder holds weaker. We recommend selecting the steel thickness from these parameters.

Ordinary NdFeB products change their properties strength above the temperature limit. Avoid high temperatures – heat can permanently demagnetize this magnet. With increasing heat, the magnet's force temporarily decreases. Refrain from using this magnet close to ovens higher than its working range. Exceeding the critical threshold will cause irreversible degradation of magnetism.
*Technical advisory: Thermal stability depends not only on the material grade, but also on the magnet's shape. Low-profile magnets (low Pc) are more susceptible to demagnetization sooner than taller cylinders. Red status in the table indicates permanent field degradation for this specific geometry.

Two magnetic products attract each other from a much further distance than a magnet and sheet setup. The connection of two magnets creates a more powerful interaction and a wider radius of performance. Planning to create a solid fastener? Use a pair of magnets instead of one magnet and a striker plate. Remember that when bringing together two magnets, the impact force is extreme. The levitation is marginally weaker than the attraction, but still impressive.
*Field value between like poles drops to ~0 Gs in the exact middle between the magnets (caused by magnetic field nullification).
* Estimates apply to sliding force of two matching neodymium magnets (friction ~0.15 for Ni-Ni plating).

Extremely neodym field is a real danger to electronics and medical implants. These neodymiums generate a flux that destroys function of digital equipment. Notice: the invisible magnetic field acts through matter and plastic. Exceptional care must be exercised by people with hearing aids and insulin pumps. Also at risk are: automatic timepieces, car keys, speakers, and displays. Do not place the magnet near cards, HDD media, or precise measuring instruments.

Neodymium magnets are prone to chipping – a violent impact against metal risks their cracking. Control the attraction moment – a neodymium left loose turns into a projectile. Kinetic force can destroy the magnet or injury to fingers. Always hold the magnet during bringing near metal so it doesn't hit violently against the steel surface. A collision at high speed ends with a crack of the magnet. Wear safety glasses when handling with large magnets.

Contrary to myths, water does not block the magnetic field. However, remember the water resistance when pulling the rope quickly.
1. Vertical hold

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains merely a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Steel thickness impact

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely limits the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.

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

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.68

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.

The presented product is an extremely powerful cylindrical magnet, composed of durable NdFeB material, which, at dimensions of Ø8x5 mm, guarantees the highest energy density. This specific item boasts high dimensional repeatability and industrial build quality, making it an excellent solution for professional engineers and designers. As a cylindrical magnet with significant force (approx. 2.17 kg), this product is in stock from our warehouse in Poland, ensuring rapid order fulfillment. Moreover, its triple-layer 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 automation, and broadly understood industry, serving as a positioning or actuating element. Thanks to the high power of 21.31 N with a weight of only 1.88 g, this rod is indispensable in electronics and wherever low weight is crucial.
Due to the delicate structure of the ceramic sinter, you must not use force-fitting (so-called press-fit), as this risks immediate cracking of this professional component. To ensure stability in automation, specialized industrial adhesives are used, which do not react with the nickel coating and fill the gap, guaranteeing high repeatability of the connection.
Magnets N38 are suitable for 90% of applications in automation and machine building, where extreme miniaturization with maximum force is not required. If you need the strongest magnets in the same volume (Ø8x5), contact us regarding higher grades (e.g., N50, N52), however, N38 is the standard in continuous sale in our store.
This model is characterized by dimensions Ø8x5 mm, which, at a weight of 1.88 g, makes it an element with high magnetic energy density. The value of 21.31 N means that the magnet is capable of holding a weight many times exceeding its own mass of 1.88 g. The product has a [NiCuNi] coating, which secures it against oxidation, giving it an aesthetic, silvery shine.
This cylinder is magnetized axially (along the height of 5 mm), which means that the N and S poles are located on the flat, circular surfaces. Thanks to this, the magnet can be easily glued into a hole and achieve a strong field on the front surface. On request, we can also produce versions magnetized through the diameter if your project requires it.

Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.

Pros

Apart from their notable magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
  • Their power is durable, and after approximately ten years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • Magnets effectively defend themselves against demagnetization caused by external fields,
  • A magnet with a metallic nickel surface looks better,
  • They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, making them more effective,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to freedom in forming and the capacity to adapt to specific needs,
  • Significant place in high-tech industry – they are used in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, medical devices, also technologically advanced constructions.
  • Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
  • When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
  • They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Due to limitations in producing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mechanism.
  • Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
  • With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,

Holding force characteristics

Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?

Information about lifting capacity is the result of a measurement for ideal contact conditions, taking into account:
  • on a base made of structural steel, effectively closing the magnetic flux
  • with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
  • with an polished touching surface
  • under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
  • under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at conditions approx. 20°C

Determinants of lifting force in real conditions

It is worth knowing that the working load will differ influenced by elements below, in order of importance:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), because even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Angle of force application – maximum parameter is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is typically several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
  • Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
  • Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
  • Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Physical harm

Risk of injury: The attraction force is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Maximum temperature

Watch the temperature. Exposing the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and strength.

Powerful field

Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.

Allergy Warning

Medical facts indicate that nickel (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from direct skin contact and select coated magnets.

Danger to the youngest

Adult use only. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to intestinal necrosis. Store out of reach of children and animals.

Safe distance

Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Flammability

Machining of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Eye protection

NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.

Impact on smartphones

Be aware: rare earth magnets produce a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Maintain a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.
