1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For standard magnets, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.27
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of Nd2Fe14B magnets.
Advantages
- They retain magnetic properties for almost ten years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
- They maintain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
- A magnet with a metallic nickel surface looks better,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet remains exceptional,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- In view of the ability of precise molding and customization to custom requirements, neodymium magnets can be modeled in a wide range of geometric configurations, which increases their versatility,
- Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are used in mass storage devices, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, as well as modern systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
- Neodymium magnets lose their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. 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 when using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- We suggest casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complicated forms.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small components of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Lifting parameters
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what affects it?
- using a plate made of high-permeability steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
- whose thickness equals approx. 10 mm
- characterized by smoothness
- without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
- under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at temperature room level
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Distance – the presence of any layer (paint, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. High carbon content worsen the attraction effect.
- Smoothness – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, reducing force.
- Operating temperature – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they lose power, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Machining danger
Machining of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Nickel allergy
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid direct skin contact or choose encased magnets.
Health Danger
Life threat: Strong magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
Electronic hazard
Do not bring magnets near a wallet, computer, or screen. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and wipe information from cards.
Do not overheat magnets
Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.
No play value
Always store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are fatal.
Caution required
Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their force.
Crushing force
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Compass and GPS
Note: neodymium magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, device, and navigation systems.
Shattering risk
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are very brittle. Collision of two magnets leads to them shattering into small pieces.
