1. Vertical hold
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically weakens the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*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) = 0.25
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.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Benefits
- Their strength is durable, and after approximately ten years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external magnetic sources,
- In other words, due to the smooth finish of silver, the element becomes visually attractive,
- Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which increases force concentration,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely 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...
- Thanks to flexibility in constructing and the ability to modify to complex applications,
- Universal use in innovative solutions – they serve a role in mass storage devices, brushless drives, advanced medical instruments, as well as multitasking production systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions
Limitations
- To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore while using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated forms in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mount.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Lifting parameters
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?
- using a plate made of high-permeability steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- characterized by lack of roughness
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- at standard ambient temperature
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
- Clearance – the presence of any layer (rust, tape, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Metal type – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface finish – ideal contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
- Temperature – temperature increase 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 the force acted perpendicularly, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
H&S for magnets
Bodily injuries
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Choking Hazard
Absolutely keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.
Immense force
Use magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even professionals. Stay alert and do not underestimate their power.
Do not drill into magnets
Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.
Precision electronics
GPS units and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.
Safe distance
Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Stay away of min. 10 cm.
Do not overheat magnets
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its magnetic structure and strength.
Fragile material
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Danger to pacemakers
Patients with a heart stimulator should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the functioning of the life-saving device.
Warning for allergy sufferers
Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, prevent direct skin contact and choose coated magnets.
