1. Sliding resistance
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 0.44
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 and weaknesses of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Pros
- They have stable power, and over more than 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- Magnets very well protect themselves against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- The use of an metallic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
- Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which allows for strong attraction,
- Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, enabling action at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Considering the possibility of precise molding and adaptation to specialized requirements, NdFeB magnets can be produced in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which increases their versatility,
- Huge importance in advanced technology sectors – they are commonly used in hard drives, electromotive mechanisms, medical equipment, and modern systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages
- They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, in case of application outdoors
- Due to limitations in creating nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mount.
- Possible danger 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 elements of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities
Pull force analysis
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what it depends on?
- on a block made of structural steel, effectively closing the magnetic flux
- whose transverse dimension is min. 10 mm
- with an ideally smooth touching surface
- without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
- for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Distance (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Steel thickness – too thin plate does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be escaped into the air.
- Plate material – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
- Heat – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Swallowing risk
Absolutely keep magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are tragic.
Magnetic media
Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).
Handling guide
Use magnets consciously. Their huge power can shock even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their force.
ICD Warning
People with a pacemaker must keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the implant.
Thermal limits
Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need resistance above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Allergic reactions
Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent direct skin contact and opt for coated magnets.
Phone sensors
An intense magnetic field disrupts the operation of compasses in smartphones and GPS navigation. Do not bring magnets near a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.
Dust explosion hazard
Fire warning: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Crushing risk
Protect your hands. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Be careful!
Magnet fragility
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them cracking into shards.
