1. Sliding resistance
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.36
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.
Strengths
- Their magnetic field is durable, and after approximately 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
- They do not lose their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
- By using a shiny layer of silver, the element acquires an elegant look,
- Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet is impressive,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- In view of the potential of flexible molding and customization to specialized solutions, NdFeB magnets can be created in a variety of geometric configurations, which amplifies use scope,
- Wide application in electronics industry – they are used in computer drives, brushless drives, medical equipment, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Weaknesses
- To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- Neodymium magnets decrease their strength 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 recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- We recommend a housing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small elements of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Lifting parameters
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what it depends on?
- on a block made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
- with a thickness of at least 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- with zero gap (no coatings)
- during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the plane
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
- Distance – the presence of foreign body (paint, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Angle of force application – maximum parameter is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of generating force.
- Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal environment – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Sensitization to coating
It is widely known that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and select encased magnets.
Risk of cracking
Watch out for shards. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Danger to the youngest
Absolutely keep magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.
Warning for heart patients
Individuals with a ICD have to maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can stop the functioning of the implant.
Conscious usage
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and connect with huge force, often quicker than you can react.
Keep away from computers
Data protection: Strong magnets can ruin payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Crushing force
Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Heat warning
Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Threat to navigation
Note: neodymium magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Keep a separation from your mobile, tablet, and GPS.
Fire risk
Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.
