1. Sliding resistance
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 1.22
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.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.
Pros
- Their strength remains stable, and after around ten years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- They possess excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties due to opposing magnetic fields,
- By using a shiny coating of gold, the element gains an nice look,
- Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Possibility of exact modeling as well as optimizing to precise applications,
- Wide application in future technologies – they serve a role in HDD drives, brushless drives, medical devices, and other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices
Weaknesses
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
- Limited ability of creating nuts in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is casing - magnet mounting.
- Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products 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 increases costs of application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?
- on a plate made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
- whose thickness is min. 10 mm
- with an ideally smooth touching surface
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
- at room temperature
What influences lifting capacity in practice
- Gap (between the magnet and the plate), as even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
- Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Plate thickness – too thin steel does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be lost into the air.
- Steel type – mild steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface structure – the more even the plate, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Unevenness creates an air distance.
- Thermal environment – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Demagnetization risk
Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Pinching danger
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
Warning for heart patients
For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Keep at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.
Do not drill into magnets
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Skin irritation risks
It is widely known that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent touching magnets with bare hands and select coated magnets.
Material brittleness
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.
Threat to navigation
Remember: neodymium magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, tablet, and GPS.
Do not underestimate power
Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.
Threat to electronics
Powerful magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.
Choking Hazard
Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from kids and pets.
