1. Shear force

*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains merely a fraction of its nominal pull.

2. Plate thickness effect

*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces the holding force.

3. Temperature resistance

*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.

4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.16

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 products

It is ideally suited for places where solid attachment of the magnet to the substrate is required without the risk of detachment. Mounting is clean and reversible, unlike gluing. It is also often used in advertising for fixing signs and in workshops for organizing tools.
This material behaves more like porcelain than steel, so it doesn't forgive mistakes during mounting. One turn too many can destroy the magnet, so do it slowly. It's a good idea to use a rubber spacer under the screw head, which will cushion the stresses. Remember: cracking during assembly results from material properties, not a product defect.
Moisture can penetrate micro-cracks in the coating and cause oxidation of the magnet. In the place of the mounting hole, the coating is thinner and can be damaged when tightening the screw, which will become a corrosion focus. If you must use it outside, paint it with anti-corrosion paint after mounting.
The inner hole diameter determines the maximum size of the mounting element. For magnets with a straight hole, a conical head can act like a wedge and burst the magnet. Always check that the screw head is not larger than the outer diameter of the magnet (20 mm), so it doesn't protrude beyond the outline.
The presented product is a ring magnet with dimensions Ø20 mm (outer diameter) and height 27 mm. The key parameter here is the lifting capacity amounting to approximately 10.36 kg (force ~101.60 N). The mounting hole diameter is precisely 5 mm.
The poles are located on the planes with holes, not on the sides of the ring. If you want two such magnets screwed with cones facing each other (faces) to attract, you must connect them with opposite poles (N to S). When ordering a larger quantity, magnets are usually packed in stacks, where they are already naturally paired.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Advantages

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • Their strength remains stable, and after approximately 10 years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
  • They show high resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
  • A magnet with a metallic gold surface looks better,
  • Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which increases force concentration,
  • Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, enabling functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
  • Considering the option of accurate forming and customization to specialized projects, magnetic components can be modeled in a wide range of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
  • Huge importance in innovative solutions – they are utilized in mass storage devices, motor assemblies, diagnostic systems, as well as other advanced devices.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Limitations

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
  • NdFeB magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (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
  • They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complicated forms in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mount.
  • Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small components of these devices can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Holding force characteristics

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat contributes to it?

The lifting capacity listed is a theoretical maximum value executed under standard conditions:
  • using a plate made of low-carbon steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
  • whose thickness is min. 10 mm
  • with a plane free of scratches
  • with total lack of distance (without coatings)
  • for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • in temp. approx. 20°C

Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors

Bear in mind that the magnet holding will differ depending on elements below, starting with the most relevant:
  • Space between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
  • Steel thickness – insufficiently thick plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
  • Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic properties and holding force.
  • Surface quality – the more even the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
  • Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they are weaker, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.

Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Dust explosion hazard

Fire warning: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.

Metal Allergy

It is widely known that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact and opt for coated magnets.

Choking Hazard

Only for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to serious injuries. Store away from kids and pets.

Impact on smartphones

Navigation devices and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.

Safe distance

Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.

Maximum temperature

Do not overheat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).

Safe operation

Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can react.

Crushing risk

Big blocks can break fingers instantly. Do not place your hand between two attracting surfaces.

Beware of splinters

Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.

Implant safety

Health Alert: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.
