1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) severely limits the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*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) = 0.62
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.

Other proposals
Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Pros
- They do not lose magnetism, even after approximately ten years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (according to tests),
- Neodymium magnets are distinguished by exceptionally resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external magnetic fields,
- Thanks to the shiny finish, the surface of nickel, gold, or silver gives an modern appearance,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, making them more effective,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Due to the option of precise molding and customization to individualized solutions, neodymium magnets can be created in a broad palette of geometric configurations, which increases their versatility,
- Key role in high-tech industry – they are used in mass storage devices, electric motors, medical devices, as well as multitasking production systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in tiny dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems
Disadvantages
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a special holder, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. 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 rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Limited possibility of making nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - preferred is casing - magnetic holder.
- Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small components of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities
Lifting parameters
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what contributes to it?
- on a plate made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with an ground contact surface
- without any air gap between the magnet and steel
- under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at temperature room level
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Gap between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Plate material – mild steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.
H&S for magnets
This is not a toy
NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Eating multiple magnets may result in them attracting across intestines, which poses a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.
Threat to navigation
GPS units and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
Physical harm
Big blocks can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances put your hand between two strong magnets.
Warning for heart patients
People with a pacemaker must maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the operation of the implant.
Heat sensitivity
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its properties and strength.
Flammability
Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Warning for allergy sufferers
Some people suffer from a sensitization to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Extended handling can result in skin redness. It is best to use safety gloves.
Caution required
Before use, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Beware of splinters
Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Keep away from computers
Device Safety: Strong magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
