1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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) = 0.26
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.

Other proposals
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- Neodymium magnets prove to be extremely resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by magnetic disturbances,
- By covering with a shiny coating of nickel, the element presents an aesthetic look,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a unique magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
- Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for action at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Possibility of detailed shaping as well as optimizing to complex requirements,
- Universal use in advanced technology sectors – they are utilized in hard drives, brushless drives, medical devices, and multitasking production systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which allows their use in small systems
Limitations
- At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's 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, as well as 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 usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complicated shapes - recommended is cover - mounting mechanism.
- Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small elements of these magnets are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities
Pull force analysis
Highest magnetic holding force – what it depends on?
- with the contact of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
- whose thickness reaches at least 10 mm
- with an ground contact surface
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at room temperature
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Steel type – mild steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Surface condition – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases force. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Bone fractures
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together instantly with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Be careful!
Keep away from children
Only for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing intestinal necrosis. Store away from children and animals.
Protect data
Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
Sensitization to coating
Certain individuals suffer from a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling may cause skin redness. We strongly advise use protective gloves.
Thermal limits
Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature goes above 80°C. The loss of strength is permanent.
Beware of splinters
Beware of splinters. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Magnetic interference
A powerful magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to prevent breaking the sensors.
Medical implants
For implant holders: Powerful magnets affect medical devices. Keep at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
Fire warning
Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Powerful field
Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
