1. Shear force
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely 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) = 0.63
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- They retain magnetic properties for almost 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
- They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external field influence,
- By using a decorative layer of nickel, the element has an elegant look,
- Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet remains exceptional,
- 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...
- Considering the possibility of free molding and adaptation to specialized requirements, magnetic components can be created in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
- Universal use in innovative solutions – they find application in computer drives, drive modules, precision medical tools, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in small dimensions, which enables their usage in miniature devices
Limitations
- They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend 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, when using outdoors
- Limited possibility of making threads in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is cover - magnet mounting.
- Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small components of these products can complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Lifting parameters
Highest magnetic holding force – what affects it?
- with the use of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a surface free of scratches
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), because even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of generating force.
- Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
- Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.
Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.
Warnings
Precision electronics
GPS units and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.
Nickel allergy
Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid direct skin contact or opt for encased magnets.
Operating temperature
Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Fragile material
Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. Wear goggles.
Dust is flammable
Machining of neodymium magnets poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Data carriers
Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Bodily injuries
Large magnets can crush fingers instantly. Never place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
This is not a toy
Always store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.
ICD Warning
Life threat: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
Conscious usage
Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Be vigilant and respect their power.
