1. Sliding resistance
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just ~20% of its nominal pull.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For standard magnets, the critical 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.

Pros as well as cons of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Benefits
- They do not lose power, even after around ten years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- Neodymium magnets remain highly resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external field sources,
- The use of an refined finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
- Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which increases force concentration,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Thanks to flexibility in shaping and the capacity to adapt to specific needs,
- Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric motors, precision medical tools, also modern systems.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Limitations
- To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in strength. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength 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
- When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
- We recommend casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complex forms.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
- With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?
- using a base made of mild steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
- with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
- with an ideally smooth touching surface
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors
- Clearance – the presence of any layer (paint, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
- Metal type – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
- Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity was assessed with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the holding force.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Flammability
Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Life threat
Medical warning: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.
Threat to navigation
Note: rare earth magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Keep a safe distance from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.
Electronic devices
Do not bring magnets near a purse, computer, or screen. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.
Conscious usage
Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets attract from a long distance and connect with massive power, often faster than you can react.
Hand protection
Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances place your hand between two attracting surfaces.
Risk of cracking
Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
Do not give to children
Only for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing serious injuries. Store away from kids and pets.
Sensitization to coating
Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, immediately stop working with magnets and use protective gear.
Do not overheat magnets
Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. This process is irreversible.
