1. Wall mount (shear)
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly weakens the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 0.35
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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Benefits
- They retain magnetic properties for nearly ten years – the drop is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external interference,
- A magnet with a shiny nickel surface is more attractive,
- Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet is extremely intense,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- In view of the ability of accurate forming and adaptation to specialized solutions, neodymium magnets can be manufactured in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Versatile presence in advanced technology sectors – they are commonly used in computer drives, motor assemblies, medical devices, and modern systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages
- They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in a protective case. 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 weakening of power (a factor is the shape as well as 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. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic holder.
- Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these products can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Pull force analysis
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what affects it?
- with the use of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- characterized by even structure
- without any air gap between the magnet and steel
- under vertical force vector (90-degree angle)
- at room temperature
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Distance – existence of foreign body (paint, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures decrease magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface quality – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.
H&S for magnets
Serious injuries
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Thermal limits
Avoid heat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Material brittleness
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.
Magnetic media
Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Threat to navigation
An intense magnetic field disrupts the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets near a device to avoid breaking the sensors.
Swallowing risk
NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of multiple magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a severe health hazard and necessitates immediate surgery.
Metal Allergy
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, avoid touching magnets with bare hands or opt for coated magnets.
Fire risk
Powder created during cutting of magnets is combustible. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Immense force
Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Life threat
Individuals with a pacemaker should maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the functioning of the implant.
