1. Sliding resistance
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.59
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.
Strengths
- They retain magnetic properties for around ten years – the drop is just ~1% (according to analyses),
- They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- A magnet with a smooth gold surface is more attractive,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Thanks to the option of precise forming and adaptation to specialized projects, NdFeB magnets can be produced in a wide range of geometric configurations, which amplifies use scope,
- Key role in electronics industry – they are utilized in computer drives, electromotive mechanisms, medical devices, also technologically advanced constructions.
- Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Cons
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- Neodymium magnets lose 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
- When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
- We suggest a housing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,
Pull force analysis
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what it depends on?
- with the use of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a surface cleaned and smooth
- with zero gap (without impurities)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- in neutral thermal conditions
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Distance – existence of foreign body (rust, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture create air cushions, reducing force.
- Temperature influence – hot environment reduces magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
Warnings
Handling guide
Be careful. Rare earth magnets attract from a long distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can react.
Cards and drives
Avoid bringing magnets close to a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.
Bone fractures
Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will join immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
GPS and phone interference
Remember: neodymium magnets produce a field that confuses precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.
Maximum temperature
Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.
Do not give to children
NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Accidental ingestion of multiple magnets may result in them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a direct threat to life and requires immediate surgery.
Danger to pacemakers
Medical warning: Neodymium magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
Allergic reactions
Medical facts indicate that nickel (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent touching magnets with bare hands and choose encased magnets.
Mechanical processing
Powder generated during grinding of magnets is self-igniting. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Protective goggles
Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
