1. Sliding resistance
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.59
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 and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Pros
- They do not lose strength, even during approximately 10 years – the drop in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by presence of other magnetic fields,
- In other words, due to the shiny layer of gold, the element is aesthetically pleasing,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Possibility of exact forming as well as adapting to specific applications,
- Fundamental importance in modern industrial fields – they are used in mass storage devices, motor assemblies, diagnostic systems, also industrial machines.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Limitations
- To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size, as well as 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 start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
- Limited possibility of making threads in the magnet and complex forms - recommended is a housing - mounting mechanism.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,
Pull force analysis
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what contributes to it?
- with the application of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
- whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
- with an ground contact surface
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
- at ambient temperature room level
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Distance – the presence of any layer (paint, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Steel grade – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may attract less.
- Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Nickel allergy
Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If you have an allergy, avoid direct skin contact and opt for encased magnets.
Protect data
Data protection: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).
GPS Danger
Remember: neodymium magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and navigation systems.
Medical implants
Patients with a ICD must maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the implant.
Crushing risk
Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Magnets are brittle
Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Do not give to children
Always store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Mechanical processing
Fire warning: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.
Permanent damage
Avoid heat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Conscious usage
Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.
