1. Sliding resistance
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.83
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.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- Their power is maintained, and after around ten years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
- Neodymium magnets are distinguished by exceptionally resistant to demagnetization caused by external interference,
- The use of an elegant layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which increases their power,
- 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 forming as well as adjusting to precise applications,
- Wide application in advanced technology sectors – they are commonly used in data components, brushless drives, medical equipment, and modern systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices
Weaknesses
- To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its 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, 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 rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic holder.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Pull force analysis
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what contributes to it?
- on a base made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
- whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
- during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
- at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Air gap (between the magnet and the plate), since even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
- Pull-off angle – 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 – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Metal type – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
- Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
- 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 conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Medical implants
Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.
Finger safety
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
Skin irritation risks
It is widely known that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent direct skin contact or opt for encased magnets.
Shattering risk
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets leads to them breaking into shards.
Safe distance
Data protection: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Machining danger
Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Demagnetization risk
Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.
GPS Danger
Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.
Conscious usage
Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and connect with massive power, often quicker than you can react.
This is not a toy
Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing severe trauma. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
