1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds only ~20% of its max power.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 0.89
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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Strengths
- Their magnetic field is durable, and after around 10 years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- Magnets perfectly defend themselves against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- Thanks to the elegant finish, the layer of nickel, gold, or silver gives an aesthetic appearance,
- Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which allows for strong attraction,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Possibility of detailed forming and optimizing to defined requirements,
- Key role in future technologies – they serve a role in computer drives, electric motors, precision medical tools, also modern systems.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Cons
- They are fragile upon heavy 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
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic mechanism.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small elements of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to neodymium price, their price is higher than average,
Pull force analysis
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
- with the use of a yoke made of special test steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
- possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with an ground contact surface
- without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
- under vertical force vector (90-degree angle)
- at room temperature
What influences lifting capacity in practice
- Clearance – existence of foreign body (rust, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is usually many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material type – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
- Smoothness – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
- Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Warnings
Magnet fragility
Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.
Threat to electronics
Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Thermal limits
Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.
Danger to the youngest
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to severe trauma. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Machining danger
Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Medical interference
Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.
Finger safety
Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so immense that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
Allergy Warning
Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid touching magnets with bare hands or select versions in plastic housing.
Threat to navigation
An intense magnetic field interferes with the operation of compasses in phones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.
Do not underestimate power
Use magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their power.
