1. Shear force
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.14
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.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Pros
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
- In other words, due to the smooth layer of nickel, the element becomes visually attractive,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Due to the potential of precise shaping and adaptation to individualized requirements, neodymium magnets can be manufactured in a variety of shapes and sizes, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Fundamental importance in modern technologies – they are used in HDD drives, electric drive systems, advanced medical instruments, and multitasking production systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in tiny dimensions, which enables their usage in miniature devices
Limitations
- They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves 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
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore when using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Limited ability of making threads in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is a housing - magnet mounting.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small components of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Holding force characteristics
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what affects it?
- with the contact of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
- whose thickness reaches at least 10 mm
- with an ground contact surface
- under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors
- Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
- Force direction – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives weaken the attraction effect.
- Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
- Thermal environment – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Nickel coating and allergies
Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.
Conscious usage
Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.
Bodily injuries
Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can cause hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
Magnet fragility
Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Cards and drives
Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).
GPS Danger
GPS units and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.
Fire risk
Machining of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Adults only
NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Swallowing a few magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a direct threat to life and requires urgent medical intervention.
Do not overheat magnets
Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.
Medical implants
Patients with a heart stimulator should keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.
