NdFeB Cube Magnet
Field Strengths & Holding Force

The NdFeB (neodymium iron boron) cube magnets are N42 ~13,000 gauss (1.3T). Field strengths have been calculated using finite element analysis at the surface and 4 places above the central point and are estimated to be within 10% of actual. For surface measurements, these values are more accurate than a magnetometer since such devices have an airgap of at least 0.1mm between the magnet and sensor. The 0mm measurement is a maximum theoretical value that assumes there is no nickel coating.

The holding forces are also theoretical maximums based on optimum permeability, thickness, area of the metal attached to and no nickel or other coating. The attractive/repulsive force of 2 identical magnets, in direct contact, is double this value.
  • nickel-copper-nickel coated
  • size tolerance for 2.5-7.5mm: +/- 0.05mm
  • size tolerance for 10-25mm: +/- 0.1mm
  • magnet strength variance piece to piece: <8%
  • 80C maximum operating temperature
  • axis of magnetization is perpendicular to page
