1. Shear force
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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) = 0.55
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.
Advantages
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
- Magnets very well resist against loss of magnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
- In other words, due to the glossy surface of silver, the element gains a professional look,
- Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which increases force concentration,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to freedom in forming and the capacity to modify to specific needs,
- Wide application in future technologies – they are utilized in HDD drives, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, and industrial machines.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Cons
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
- Neodymium magnets decrease their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material stable to moisture, in case of application outdoors
- Due to limitations in creating nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mechanism.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what affects it?
- using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
- possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- with an ground contact surface
- with zero gap (no coatings)
- for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors
- Distance (between the magnet and the plate), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
- Angle of force application – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is typically several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal limits the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Chemical composition of the base – mild steel attracts best. Higher carbon content decrease magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
- Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Warnings
Threat to navigation
GPS units and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.
Eye protection
Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Keep away from children
Strictly keep magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
Implant safety
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.
Bodily injuries
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Avoid contact if allergic
Some people suffer from a sensitization to Ni, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching might lead to dermatitis. We strongly advise wear safety gloves.
Maximum temperature
Watch the temperature. Exposing the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and strength.
Dust is flammable
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Safe distance
Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, medical aids, timepieces).
Respect the power
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and connect with massive power, often faster than you can react.
