1. Shear force
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its max power.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.30
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.

Strengths and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (based on calculations),
- They retain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
- By covering with a reflective layer of gold, the element gains an aesthetic look,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a maximum magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Considering the option of flexible shaping and adaptation to specialized requirements, neodymium magnets can be created in a broad palette of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
- Significant place in innovative solutions – they find application in magnetic memories, electric motors, precision medical tools, as well as other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Cons
- They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- NdFeB magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mount.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- Due to complex production process, their price is higher than average,
Lifting parameters
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?
- with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
- with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- with total lack of distance (without impurities)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at conditions approx. 20°C
What influences lifting capacity in practice
- Space between surfaces – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
- Steel type – mild steel attracts best. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
- Heat – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was determined using a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.
H&S for magnets
Power loss in heat
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and strength.
Dust explosion hazard
Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Protective goggles
Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.
Compass and GPS
An intense magnetic field interferes with the functioning of compasses in phones and navigation systems. Keep magnets near a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.
Safe distance
Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Safe operation
Before use, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Health Danger
Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.
Pinching danger
Large magnets can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
Nickel coating and allergies
Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If skin irritation occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and use protective gear.
Danger to the youngest
Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
