1. Wall mount (shear)
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 0.26
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.
Advantages
- Their magnetic field is durable, and after approximately ten years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
- Magnets very well resist against loss of magnetization caused by external fields,
- By applying a smooth layer of nickel, the element gains an nice look,
- Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet turns out to be strong,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- In view of the possibility of accurate forming and adaptation to specialized needs, magnetic components can be produced in a wide range of forms and dimensions, which amplifies use scope,
- Wide application in modern technologies – they find application in magnetic memories, motor assemblies, medical devices, and industrial machines.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Disadvantages
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 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 nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mechanism.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Lifting parameters
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?
- using a base made of high-permeability steel, serving as a magnetic yoke
- with a thickness of at least 10 mm
- characterized by smoothness
- with direct contact (no paint)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at ambient temperature room level
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Distance – existence of foreign body (rust, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Steel thickness – insufficiently thick steel does not accept the full field, causing part of the power to be wasted into the air.
- Steel type – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic properties and holding force.
- Plate texture – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
- Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was measured by applying a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Warnings
Fragile material
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.
Physical harm
Big blocks can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Never place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
Dust explosion hazard
Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Keep away from electronics
A strong magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets close to a device to avoid damaging the sensors.
Warning for allergy sufferers
A percentage of the population have a sensitization to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact may cause a rash. It is best to use safety gloves.
Adults only
Product intended for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Keep away from kids and pets.
Thermal limits
Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require resistance above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Medical interference
Life threat: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.
Caution required
Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.
Safe distance
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
