1. Wall mount (shear)
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its max power.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.55
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.

Pros and cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Advantages
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (based on calculations),
- They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- By applying a shiny coating of nickel, the element has an aesthetic look,
- Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Thanks to versatility in forming and the capacity to adapt to client solutions,
- Key role in future technologies – they are used in magnetic memories, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, also technologically advanced constructions.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions
Cons
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- Neodymium magnets lose their force 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
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
- Limited possibility of producing threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is cover - mounting mechanism.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small elements of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what affects it?
- with the contact of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a plane free of scratches
- with direct contact (no paint)
- under axial force vector (90-degree angle)
- at standard ambient temperature
Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors
- Space between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Force direction – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
- Steel grade – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Stainless steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
- Heat – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Bodily injuries
Large magnets can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Never put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
Power loss in heat
Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Mechanical processing
Machining of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Handling rules
Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Metal Allergy
Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact and opt for coated magnets.
Risk of cracking
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.
Warning for heart patients
Patients with a pacemaker should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.
Cards and drives
Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
No play value
Always keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are tragic.
Threat to navigation
Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.
