1. Vertical hold
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its max power.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.42
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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Advantages
- Their magnetic field remains stable, and after around 10 years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- They maintain their magnetic properties even under close interference source,
- In other words, due to the smooth layer of silver, the element becomes visually attractive,
- Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet is maximum,
- Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for action at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Considering the ability of free molding and adaptation to unique solutions, NdFeB magnets can be manufactured in a wide range of geometric configurations, which increases their versatility,
- Fundamental importance in modern technologies – they are utilized in computer drives, electric motors, advanced medical instruments, as well as complex engineering applications.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Weaknesses
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- Neodymium magnets lose force when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (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 start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
- We suggest casing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
- Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,
Pull force analysis
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?
- using a plate made of high-permeability steel, functioning as a circuit closing element
- possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- characterized by lack of roughness
- without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
- under perpendicular force vector (90-degree angle)
- in stable room temperature
Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors
- Distance (between the magnet and the plate), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
- Angle of force application – maximum parameter is available only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
- Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Immense force
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a long distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can react.
Skin irritation risks
Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If redness appears, cease working with magnets and wear gloves.
Fire warning
Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.
Magnets are brittle
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle. Impact of two magnets leads to them shattering into shards.
Health Danger
Patients with a pacemaker should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can stop the functioning of the implant.
Magnetic interference
GPS units and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.
Swallowing risk
Only for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, leading to severe trauma. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Safe distance
Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Permanent damage
Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Pinching danger
Large magnets can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand between two strong magnets.
