8356 – N35 Neodymium Block Magnet 2 × 2 × 1/2 in

SKU 8356 is an N35 neodymium block magnet measuring 2 × 2 × 1/2 inches. It is magnetized through the 1/2-inch thickness, placing the north and south poles on the two broad 2 × 2-inch faces. Its square footprint suits industrial holding, fixtures, separation equipment, prototypes, and production assemblies. Ni-Cu-Ni plating covers the sintered NdFeB material.

Design and assembly notes

Confirm pole orientation, operating air gap, target-steel thickness, adhesive selection, and dimensional stack-up in the final assembly. Sintered neodymium is hard and brittle, so avoid impact, snap-together collisions, uneven clamping, and excessive mechanical stress. Use controlled installation methods when assembling magnets near steel or other magnets.

The listed 169.84 lb pull force is a comparison value under defined contact conditions, not a guaranteed safe working load. Air gaps, surface roughness, coating, thin target steel, and shear loading can reduce usable force. Validate holding performance in the final assembly. Review thermal exposure against the listed 80°C maximum operating temperature.

Use the magnet pull force calculator for preliminary screening and compare materials in the neodymium magnet grade chart. Browse neodymium block magnets, or submit the magnet RFQ builder for volume pricing or custom requirements.
