1. Shear force
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only ~20% of its nominal pull.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.31
This simulation demonstrates the magnetic stability of the selected magnet under specific geometric conditions. 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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Pros
- They do not lose magnetism, even after nearly 10 years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- Magnets perfectly defend themselves against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- A magnet with a metallic gold surface has better aesthetics,
- Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet turns out to be very high,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Thanks to modularity in constructing and the capacity to customize to specific needs,
- Huge importance in electronics industry – they are commonly used in data components, motor assemblies, medical equipment, and complex engineering applications.
- Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,
Cons
- They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- 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
- They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mount.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, tiny parts of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- Due to neodymium price, their price is higher than average,
Pull force analysis
Highest magnetic holding force – what affects it?
- using a sheet made of low-carbon steel, serving as a circuit closing element
- whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
- with an ideally smooth touching surface
- without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
- under perpendicular force vector (90-degree angle)
- at room temperature
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Distance – existence of any layer (rust, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which reduces capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy steels decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is possible only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, reducing force.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.
Warnings
GPS and phone interference
Navigation devices and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.
Adults only
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to intestinal necrosis. Keep away from kids and pets.
Danger to pacemakers
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Beware of splinters
Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Finger safety
Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing everything in their path. Be careful!
Keep away from computers
Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm.
Handling rules
Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets attract from a long distance and connect with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.
Dust is flammable
Fire warning: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Skin irritation risks
Allergy Notice: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation appears, immediately stop working with magnets and use protective gear.
Do not overheat magnets
Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.
