1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly weakens the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.50
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.
Pros
- They do not lose power, even during around 10 years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- Magnets perfectly protect themselves against demagnetization caused by external fields,
- A magnet with a shiny silver surface has an effective appearance,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Possibility of precise machining and adjusting to atypical requirements,
- Universal use in high-tech industry – they are used in hard drives, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, as well as other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices
Cons
- They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in special housings. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- Neodymium 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 very resistant to heat
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore while using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Limited possibility of making threads in the magnet and complicated shapes - recommended is casing - mounting mechanism.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small components of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what it depends on?
- with the application of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
- with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- with direct contact (without impurities)
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- at standard ambient temperature
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
- Distance – existence of any layer (paint, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Angle of force application – highest force is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels lower magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
- Temperature – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.
Lifting capacity was measured by applying a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, however under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Combustion hazard
Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Implant safety
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Safe distance
Powerful magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Stay away of min. 10 cm.
Heat sensitivity
Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Shattering risk
Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. Wear goggles.
Hand protection
Protect your hands. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Skin irritation risks
Certain individuals suffer from a contact allergy to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching may cause a rash. We strongly advise wear safety gloves.
Safe operation
Use magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and respect their power.
Choking Hazard
These products are not toys. Accidental ingestion of several magnets may result in them attracting across intestines, which poses a severe health hazard and necessitates urgent medical intervention.
Keep away from electronics
An intense magnetic field disrupts the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Do not bring magnets close to a device to avoid breaking the sensors.
