Here we describe the design and characterization of a NbFeB permanent magnet system that can be retrofitted to the sample holders of existing STM. Our design produces a magnetic field of up to 400 mT that is compatible with high temperature sample cleaning routines above the Curie point of the magnet frequently used in UHV experiments. We characterize the flux density using superconducting vortices in NbSe2 and BSCCO and demonstrate the life-cycle of the magnet from sample preparation to characterization. Our magnet is an accessible way to flux-dependent surface science, ranging from vortices in high-temperature superconductors to STM-enabled electron spin resonance.
