To achieve the above object, a cylindrical linear motor of the present invention includes a cylindrical linear motor includes: a core having a cylindrical yoke, and a plurality of teeth that are annular and are provided at intervals in an axial direction on an outer periphery of the yoke; a winding mounted in slots between the teeth; and a field which is cylindrical and in which the core is inwardly inserted movably in the axial direction to arrange N poles and S poles alternately in the axial direction, wherein the field has permanent magnets of a main magnetic pole radially magnetized and permanent magnets of a sub magnetic pole axially magnetized that are alternately arranged in a Halbach array in the axial direction, an axial length of the permanent magnet of the main magnetic pole is longer than an axial length of the permanent magnet of the sub magnetic pole, and the permanent magnet of the sub magnetic pole has a coercive force higher than that of the permanent magnet of the main magnetic pole.
