1. Vertical hold
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For standard magnets, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.35
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Pros
- Their power remains stable, and after around 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external interference,
- In other words, due to the shiny layer of silver, the element becomes visually attractive,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a maximum magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, enabling action at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Thanks to modularity in designing and the capacity to modify to unusual requirements,
- Universal use in electronics industry – they are commonly used in HDD drives, motor assemblies, precision medical tools, and complex engineering applications.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,
Limitations
- At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
- Neodymium magnets lose their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in creating threads and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mechanism.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Lifting parameters
Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what contributes to it?
- on a block made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
- whose thickness is min. 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at standard ambient temperature
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
- Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
- Angle of force application – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
- Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
- Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
GPS Danger
Be aware: neodymium magnets generate a field that confuses precision electronics. Keep a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and navigation systems.
Warning for heart patients
Medical warning: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.
Adults only
Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing serious injuries. Store out of reach of kids and pets.
Heat sensitivity
Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.
Magnets are brittle
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.
Handling guide
Before use, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.
Allergy Warning
It is widely known that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, prevent direct skin contact or select versions in plastic housing.
Hand protection
Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will join instantly with a force of massive weight, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Flammability
Dust generated during grinding of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
Data carriers
Device Safety: Strong magnets can ruin payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, medical aids, timepieces).
