1. Wall mount (shear)

*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.

2. Steel saturation

*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Power loss vs temp

*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.

4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.16

The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. The solid red line represents the demagnetization curve (material potential), while the dashed blue line is the load line based on the magnet's geometry. The Pc (Permeance Coefficient), also known as the load line slope, is a dimensionless value that describes the relationship between the magnet's shape and its magnetic stability. The intersection of these two lines (the black dot) is the operating point — it determines the actual magnetic flux density generated by the magnet in this specific configuration. A higher Pc value means the magnet is more 'slender' (tall relative to its area), resulting in a higher operating point and better resistance to irreversible demagnetization caused by external fields or temperature. A value of 0.42 is relatively low (typical for flat magnets), meaning the operating point is closer to the 'knee' of the curve — caution is advised when operating at temperatures near the maximum limit to avoid strength loss.

Magnet pull force


Magnetic Induction

Other deals

It is ideally suited for places where solid attachment of the magnet to the substrate is required without the risk of detachment. Mounting is clean and reversible, unlike gluing. It is also often used in advertising for fixing signs and in workshops for organizing tools.
This material behaves more like porcelain than steel, so it doesn't forgive mistakes during mounting. When tightening the screw, you must maintain caution. We recommend tightening manually with a screwdriver, not an impact driver, because too much pressure will cause the ring to crack. It's a good idea to use a rubber spacer under the screw head, which will cushion the stresses. Remember: cracking during assembly results from material properties, not a product defect.
These magnets are coated with standard Ni-Cu-Ni plating, which protects them in indoor conditions, but is not sufficient for rain. In the place of the mounting hole, the coating is thinner and easily scratched when tightening the screw, which will become a corrosion focus. This product is dedicated for indoor use. For outdoor applications, we recommend choosing rubberized holders or additional protection with varnish.
The inner hole diameter determines the maximum size of the mounting element. For magnets with a straight hole, a conical head can act like a wedge and burst the magnet. Aesthetic mounting requires selecting the appropriate head size.
It is a magnetic ring with a diameter of 20 mm and thickness 27 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 10.36 kg (force ~101.60 N). The product has a [NiCuNi] coating and is made of NdFeB material. Inner hole dimension: 5 mm.
The poles are located on the planes with holes, not on the sides of the ring. In the case of connecting two rings, make sure one is turned the right way. When ordering a larger quantity, magnets are usually packed in stacks, where they are already naturally paired.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.

Strengths

Besides their immense magnetic power, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
  • They have stable power, and over around ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • Neodymium magnets remain highly resistant to magnetic field loss caused by magnetic disturbances,
  • By applying a reflective coating of silver, the element has an proper look,
  • Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which increases force concentration,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of custom machining and adapting to individual requirements,
  • Universal use in modern technologies – they find application in mass storage devices, electric motors, medical devices, also technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in tiny dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a special holder, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • NdFeB magnets lose strength when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of power (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
  • Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore during using outdoors, we advise using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
  • Limited possibility of producing nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - preferred is casing - magnetic holder.
  • Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small components of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Lifting parameters

Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?

The declared magnet strength refers to the limit force, recorded under ideal test conditions, specifically:
  • on a block made of mild steel, effectively closing the magnetic field
  • possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
  • with a plane perfectly flat
  • with zero gap (without paint)
  • under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
  • at conditions approx. 20°C

Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors

Effective lifting capacity is affected by working environment parameters, such as (from priority):
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), because even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
  • Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
  • Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Temperature – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of force. Check the thermal limit for a given model.

Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.

H&S for magnets
Heat sensitivity

Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.

Caution required

Be careful. Rare earth magnets attract from a long distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.

Bone fractures

Large magnets can smash fingers instantly. Do not place your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.

Life threat

Patients with a heart stimulator must maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the implant.

Cards and drives

Data protection: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).

Swallowing risk

Always store magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.

Phone sensors

Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.

Fire risk

Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.

Fragile material

Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting shards into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Nickel allergy

A percentage of the population have a sensitization to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in skin redness. It is best to wear protective gloves.

Important! Details about risks in the article: Magnet Safety Guide.
