1. Vertical hold
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only ~20% of its nominal pull.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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) = 0.59
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 power, even after nearly 10 years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- By applying a smooth coating of silver, the element presents an elegant look,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a strong magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to freedom in constructing and the capacity to adapt to complex applications,
- Wide application in modern technologies – they serve a role in hard drives, motor assemblies, precision medical tools, and other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Disadvantages
- At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, in case of application outdoors
- Limited ability of producing threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is casing - mounting mechanism.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
- with the contact of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
- possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a surface perfectly flat
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- at temperature room level
What influences lifting capacity in practice
- Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Base massiveness – insufficiently thick sheet does not accept the full field, causing part of the power to be lost into the air.
- Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
- Surface structure – 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 results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.
Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Warnings
Medical implants
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
Hand protection
Danger of trauma: The attraction force is so great that it can cause hematomas, pinching, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
Do not drill into magnets
Machining of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Safe distance
Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.
Keep away from electronics
Be aware: rare earth magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and GPS.
Magnets are brittle
Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.
Immense force
Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Do not overheat magnets
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Metal Allergy
Some people experience a sensitization to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact may cause a rash. We strongly advise use protective gloves.
Choking Hazard
Always store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.
