1. Sliding resistance
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 1.44
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 neodymium magnets.
Pros
- They do not lose power, even over nearly 10 years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss as a result of opposing magnetic fields,
- The use of an refined coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to look better,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Thanks to freedom in designing and the capacity to modify to complex applications,
- Wide application in advanced technology sectors – they are utilized in hard drives, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, and complex engineering applications.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Limitations
- They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
- Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (a factor is the shape as well as dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, in case of application outdoors
- Limited ability of making threads in the magnet and complicated shapes - recommended is a housing - magnet mounting.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these devices can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what it depends on?
- on a block made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
- with a thickness of at least 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at conditions approx. 20°C
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
- Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
- Load vector – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Steel thickness – too thin plate does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
- Metal type – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.
Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Caution required
Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Finger safety
Protect your hands. Two large magnets will join instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!
Machining danger
Dust produced during machining of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.
Swallowing risk
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Eating a few magnets may result in them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a direct threat to life and necessitates urgent medical intervention.
Warning for heart patients
Patients with a heart stimulator have to maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the implant.
Maximum temperature
Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Cards and drives
Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).
GPS Danger
Be aware: neodymium magnets produce a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Keep a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and GPS.
Skin irritation risks
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. For allergy sufferers, prevent touching magnets with bare hands or select encased magnets.
Beware of splinters
Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.
