1. Vertical hold
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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) = 0.80
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 as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Advantages
- They do not lose magnetism, even over approximately ten years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- Neodymium magnets prove to be remarkably resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by magnetic disturbances,
- In other words, due to the aesthetic finish of nickel, the element gains visual value,
- Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Possibility of detailed forming as well as adapting to precise requirements,
- Huge importance in electronics industry – they are commonly used in data components, electric motors, medical equipment, as well as multitasking production systems.
- Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,
Weaknesses
- At strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and 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 during using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- We suggest cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,
Pull force analysis
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?
- on a base made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
- possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with an polished touching surface
- without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
- under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at room temperature
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
- Distance (betwixt the magnet and the plate), because even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Temperature influence – hot environment reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity was assessed using a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.
Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Sensitization to coating
Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation appears, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.
Fire warning
Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Impact on smartphones
GPS units and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.
Protective goggles
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them shattering into shards.
Protect data
Device Safety: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Heat warning
Control the heat. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its properties and pulling force.
Medical implants
For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields affect medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Do not give to children
Adult use only. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from children and animals.
Crushing force
Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Respect the power
Handle with care. Neodymium magnets attract from a long distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.
