1. Vertical hold
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.35
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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- They possess excellent resistance to magnetism drop when exposed to opposing magnetic fields,
- By applying a smooth coating of silver, the element acquires an nice look,
- Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to the potential of flexible forming and adaptation to unique solutions, NdFeB magnets can be produced in a wide range of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
- Significant place in future technologies – they are utilized in magnetic memories, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, and other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in small dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Limitations
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we suggest using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
- We suggest a housing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Due to complex production process, their price is higher than average,
Holding force characteristics
Highest magnetic holding force – what it depends on?
- using a sheet made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
- possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with an ground touching surface
- under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
- under vertical application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
- Distance – the presence of foreign body (rust, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
- Surface quality – the more even the plate, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Heat – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
H&S for magnets
Keep away from electronics
A powerful magnetic field disrupts the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets close to a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.
No play value
Only for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, causing serious injuries. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Handling guide
Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.
Threat to electronics
Powerful magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.
Material brittleness
Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, launching sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Health Danger
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Pinching danger
Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Heat warning
Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.
Mechanical processing
Powder created during machining of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
Nickel coating and allergies
It is widely known that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, refrain from direct skin contact or select versions in plastic housing.
