Shopping tips

Neodymium Cylindrical Magnets i.e. MW 8x5 / N38 are magnets made of neodymium in a cylindrical shape. They are valued for their very strong magnetic properties, which exceed ordinary iron magnets. Thanks to their strength, they are often used in devices that require powerful holding. The standard temperature resistance of such magnets is 80 degrees C, but for cylindrical magnets, this temperature rises with their height. Moreover, various special coatings, such as nickel, gold, or chrome, are often applied to the surface of neodymium magnets to increase their durability to corrosion. The cylindrical shape is also very popular among neodymium magnets. The magnet named MW 8x5 / N38 and a magnetic lifting capacity of 2.21 kg has a weight of only 1.88 grams.
Cylindrical neodymium magnets, also known as Nd2Fe14B, represent the strongest known material for magnet production. Their production process is complicated and includes sintering 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 many applications, such as electric motors, audio-video equipment, and in the automotive and aerospace industries.
Moreover, even though neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a thin layer of epoxy to protect them from corrosion. Interestingly that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, easily break, which requires special caution during their handling. For this reason, 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, and also in water or oil. Furthermore, they can distort data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not guaranteed.
Regarding the purchase of cylindrical neodymium magnets, many companies offer such products. One of the recommended suppliers is our company Dhit, located in Ożarów Mazowiecki, the address can be found directly in the contact tab. It is recommended to visit the website for the current information and offers, and before visiting, please call.
Due to their strength, cylindrical neodymium magnets are practical in various applications, they can also constitute certain risk. Due to their strong magnetic power, they can attract metallic objects with uncontrolled force, which can lead to crushing skin as well as other surfaces, especially hands. Do not use neodymium magnets near equipment or data storage devices, such as credit cards, as they can destroy 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 very useful, one should handle them carefully.
Neodymium magnets, with the formula Nd2Fe14B, are currently the strong magnets on the market. They are produced through a complicated sintering process, which involves fusing special alloys of neodymium with additional metals and then forming and thermal processing. Their amazing magnetic strength comes from the unique production technology and chemical composition.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are susceptible to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often covered with coatings, such as nickel, to protect them from environmental factors and extend their lifespan. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a deterioration of their magnetic properties, 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 conditions, basic environments, organic or solvent environments, unless they are properly protected. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an atmosphere containing hydrogen, as they may forfeit their magnetic properties.
A cylindrical neodymium magnet with classification N50 and N52 is a powerful and strong metallic component shaped like a cylinder, providing high force and broad usability. Attractive price, fast shipping, resistance and multi-functionality.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:

  • They retain their full power for nearly 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
  • They protect against demagnetization induced by external electromagnetic environments remarkably well,
  • In other words, due to the shiny nickel coating, the magnet obtains an professional appearance,
  • They have very high 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,
  • Thanks to the freedom in shaping and the capability to adapt to specific requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in different geometries, which broadens their functional possibilities,
  • Important function in advanced technical fields – they serve a purpose in hard drives, rotating machines, healthcare devices or even other advanced devices,
  • Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in tiny dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems

Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:

  • They are prone to breaking when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, they should be placed in a steel housing. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage and additionally enhances its overall robustness,
  • They lose strength at increased temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent loss 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,
  • They rust in a humid environment, especially when used outside, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of rubber,
  • Limited ability to create internal holes in the magnet – the use of a external casing is recommended,
  • Safety concern linked to microscopic shards may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is notable in the protection of children. Furthermore, small elements from these devices have the potential to hinder health screening after being swallowed,
  • In cases of mass production, neodymium magnet cost is a challenge,

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat contributes to it?

The given strength of the magnet corresponds to the optimal strength, measured under optimal conditions, that is:

  • using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
  • with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
  • with a polished side
  • with no separation
  • under perpendicular detachment force
  • under standard ambient temperature

Magnet lifting force in use – key factors

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

  • Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because 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 determined using a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Precautions

Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.

Even though magnets have been found to maintain their efficacy up to temperatures of 80°C or 175°F, it's essential to consider that this threshold may fluctuate depending on the magnet's type, configuration, and intended usage.

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

Familiarize yourself with our information to correctly handle these magnets and avoid significant swellings to your body and prevent disruption to the magnets.

Keep neodymium magnets away from 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.

Neodymium magnetic are delicate as well as can easily break as well as shatter.

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, tiny sharp metal fragments can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.

Avoid bringing neodymium magnets close to a phone or GPS.

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 are not toys, youngest should not play with them.

Neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. In the case of swallowing multiple magnets simultaneously, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to death.

Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant injuries.

If the joining of neodymium magnets is not controlled, then they may crumble and crack. You can't approach them to each other. At a distance less than 10 cm you should have them very firmly.

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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.

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

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

Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.

Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.

Be careful!
