1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only a fraction of its max power.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For N38 material, the critical 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.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- They do not lose magnetism, even during nearly ten years – the drop in lifting capacity is only ~1% (theoretically),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external magnetic sources,
- In other words, due to the aesthetic layer of gold, the element gains visual value,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a powerful magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Possibility of individual forming as well as adapting to defined needs,
- Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they are used in computer drives, electromotive mechanisms, medical devices, also multitasking production systems.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Limitations
- To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- NdFeB magnets lose force when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
- Due to limitations in producing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mechanism.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Due to expensive raw materials, their price is relatively high,
Pull force analysis
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?
- with the contact of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
- with a thickness minimum 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- with zero gap (no paint)
- for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Force direction – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Chemical composition of the base – mild steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic properties and holding force.
- Surface finish – ideal contact is obtained only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Thermal factor – high temperature weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under shearing force the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Compass and GPS
Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the internal compass in your phone.
Powerful field
Be careful. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can react.
Adults only
Strictly store magnets away from children. Choking hazard is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are fatal.
Allergic reactions
Warning for allergy sufferers: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation occurs, cease working with magnets and wear gloves.
Serious injuries
Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Be careful!
Warning for heart patients
Life threat: Strong magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.
Operating temperature
Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) lose magnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.
Dust explosion hazard
Powder created during cutting of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Shattering risk
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets leads to them shattering into shards.
Safe distance
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.
