1. Vertical hold
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically reduces the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.13
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.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- They do not lose power, even over approximately ten years – the drop in lifting capacity is only ~1% (theoretically),
- Magnets perfectly resist against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- In other words, due to the shiny layer of nickel, the element becomes visually attractive,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Possibility of detailed forming as well as modifying to defined applications,
- Fundamental importance in modern industrial fields – they find application in mass storage devices, brushless drives, precision medical tools, also modern systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions
Weaknesses
- To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore while using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic holder.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to expensive raw materials, their price is relatively high,
Holding force characteristics
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?
- using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
- with a thickness of at least 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
- for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at room temperature
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Space between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) diminishes the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Load vector – maximum parameter is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is usually many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Steel thickness – too thin sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be lost to the other side.
- Plate material – mild steel attracts best. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
- Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Crushing force
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
Protective goggles
Watch out for shards. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.
Safe distance
Avoid bringing magnets close to a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and wipe information from cards.
Danger to pacemakers
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Power loss in heat
Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.
Flammability
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.
Compass and GPS
A powerful magnetic field interferes with the operation of compasses in smartphones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets close to a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.
Safe operation
Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and respect their force.
Swallowing risk
These products are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of a few magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a critical condition and requires immediate surgery.
Nickel coating and allergies
It is widely known that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid touching magnets with bare hands or select versions in plastic housing.
