Neodymium magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnet commercially available. They have replaced other types of magnets in many applications in modern products that require strong permanent magnets.

The references N35 and N52 are a measurement of the quality of the magnet material. The higher the grade (the number following the 'N'), the stronger the magnet. These explain two things:
- How much "magnetic energy" per volume is contained in this magnet material
- The maximum temperature at which the magnet can be used

Magnets that begin with an "N" should be used up to 80°C (176°F).
The highest grade of neodymium magnet currently available is N52.

If you take any two magnets of different sizes and magnetisation from our range, the difference in their strength is due more to the differences in their volume than the differences in their magnetisation. That is why the larger magnet is usually the stronger magnet, even when its magnetisation classification is somewhat lower.

** Pull Force: Expected pull force based on extensive product testing. The Surface Field data is only valid for points along the center axis of the magnet, and assumes a single magnet in free space.

If you are planning to use them for wargames and miniatures, we make the following recommendations:

- Neodymium Magnet - 3x0.5mm, for exchanging weapons, heads, arms, etc...
- Neodymium Magnet - 3x1mm, for exchanging weapons, heads, arms, etc...
- Neodymium Magnet - 3x2mm, for plastic miniature bases.
- Neodymium Magnet - 5x2mm, for metal miniature bases.
