1. Shear force
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only ~20% of its max power.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.13
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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.
Advantages
- They do not lose power, even over nearly ten years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (theoretically),
- They have excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties due to external magnetic sources,
- A magnet with a smooth gold surface has an effective appearance,
- They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
- 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...
- Possibility of custom creating and adjusting to atypical needs,
- Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they are used in mass storage devices, brushless drives, medical devices, as well as modern systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Cons
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. 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 magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
- We suggest casing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
- Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Pull force analysis
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what affects it?
- with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
- with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
- characterized by smoothness
- without any clearance between the magnet and steel
- during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the plane
- at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
What influences lifting capacity in practice
- Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Plate thickness – insufficiently thick sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be escaped into the air.
- Steel type – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy steels reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface condition – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Thermal factor – hot environment weakens magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a smooth steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, however under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Warnings
Electronic devices
Powerful magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.
Do not give to children
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing serious injuries. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Dust explosion hazard
Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Safe operation
Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and connect with massive power, often faster than you can react.
Risk of cracking
Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is brittle and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Thermal limits
Avoid heat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you require operation above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Serious injuries
Danger of trauma: The attraction force is so great that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
ICD Warning
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets affect electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Keep away from electronics
A powerful magnetic field disrupts the operation of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets close to a device to prevent damaging the sensors.
Nickel coating and allergies
Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction happens, cease handling magnets and use protective gear.
