1. Shear force
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its max power.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly weakens the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.13
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 and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Benefits
- They do not lose power, even after approximately ten years – the drop in power is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- Magnets perfectly defend themselves against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- By using a smooth coating of silver, the element gains an nice look,
- Magnets have extremely high magnetic induction on the outer side,
- Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Thanks to the ability of free forming and adaptation to specialized needs, NdFeB magnets can be created in a wide range of forms and dimensions, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Key role in advanced technology sectors – they are used in magnetic memories, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, also multitasking production systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Limitations
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- 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.
- Limited possibility of making threads in the magnet and complicated shapes - preferred is casing - magnetic holder.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small elements of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Lifting parameters
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
- on a block made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic flux
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with an ideally smooth contact surface
- without any air gap between the magnet and steel
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors
- Clearance – the presence of any layer (rust, dirt, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Base massiveness – too thin plate causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be wasted to the other side.
- Material type – the best choice is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
- Smoothness – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
- Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they are weaker, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Warnings
Warning for allergy sufferers
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from direct skin contact and select encased magnets.
This is not a toy
Absolutely keep magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.
GPS Danger
Be aware: neodymium magnets produce a field that interferes with precision electronics. Maintain a safe distance from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.
Permanent damage
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Life threat
Individuals with a heart stimulator must maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.
Safe distance
Do not bring magnets close to a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.
Hand protection
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Eye protection
Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.
Handling guide
Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.
Combustion hazard
Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
