1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its max power.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.50
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 magnetism, even during nearly ten years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (theoretically),
- Magnets perfectly resist against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- Thanks to the elegant finish, the surface of nickel, gold-plated, or silver gives an modern appearance,
- Magnets are distinguished by excellent magnetic induction on the outer side,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Possibility of precise machining and modifying to complex conditions,
- Fundamental importance in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, also complex engineering applications.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications
Cons
- 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
- NdFeB magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of strength (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 extremely resistant to heat
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore during using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Due to limitations in creating threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mechanism.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?
- using a plate made of mild steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
- possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- with an polished contact surface
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at ambient temperature room level
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
- Distance (between the magnet and the metal), because even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
- Load vector – highest force is available only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is usually many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
- Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
- Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.
H&S for magnets
Caution required
Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even professionals. Stay alert and do not underestimate their power.
No play value
NdFeB magnets are not intended for children. Eating several magnets may result in them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a severe health hazard and requires immediate surgery.
Cards and drives
Very strong magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Stay away of at least 10 cm.
Fire risk
Machining of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Phone sensors
Be aware: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and GPS.
Power loss in heat
Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Nickel coating and allergies
Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction happens, cease working with magnets and wear gloves.
Risk of cracking
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are fragile like glass. Impact of two magnets will cause them breaking into shards.
Life threat
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Bodily injuries
Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so immense that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
