1. Shear force
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only ~20% of its nominal pull.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically weakens the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.14
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after 10 years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (according to literature),
- They maintain their magnetic properties even under close interference source,
- A magnet with a shiny gold surface has better aesthetics,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet remains extremely intense,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Thanks to modularity in constructing and the capacity to adapt to specific needs,
- Universal use in advanced technology sectors – they serve a role in hard drives, electromotive mechanisms, medical devices, as well as complex engineering applications.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in tiny dimensions, which makes them useful in compact constructions
Disadvantages
- To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- Neodymium magnets decrease their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Limited ability of creating nuts in the magnet and complex forms - recommended is cover - magnetic holder.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small components of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what contributes to it?
- with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
- whose transverse dimension is min. 10 mm
- with an ground touching surface
- under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
- at room temperature
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Space between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Plate material – low-carbon steel attracts best. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.
Warnings
Combustion hazard
Mechanical processing of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Magnets are brittle
Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
GPS and phone interference
Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
Nickel allergy
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from direct skin contact and opt for encased magnets.
Warning for heart patients
For implant holders: Powerful magnets affect electronics. Keep at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.
Electronic hazard
Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.
Choking Hazard
Always store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are tragic.
Heat sensitivity
Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) lose magnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. This process is irreversible.
Bodily injuries
Large magnets can smash fingers instantly. Never put your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.
Do not underestimate power
Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even professionals. Plan your moves and respect their force.
