1. Wall mount (shear)
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.90
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.

Strengths and weaknesses of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They do not lose power, even over nearly ten years – the decrease in strength is only ~1% (theoretically),
- Magnets perfectly defend themselves against demagnetization caused by external fields,
- In other words, due to the smooth surface of nickel, the element is aesthetically pleasing,
- Magnets have huge magnetic induction on the active area,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Due to the option of accurate shaping and adaptation to individualized requirements, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which increases their versatility,
- Significant place in advanced technology sectors – they are utilized in computer drives, electric motors, medical devices, as well as other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in small dimensions, which enables their usage in small systems
Weaknesses
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- We recommend casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?
- with the application of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing full magnetic saturation
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- characterized by lack of roughness
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
- under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at temperature room level
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Clearance – existence of foreign body (rust, tape, gap) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is obtained only on polished steel. Rough texture create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
- Thermal environment – heating the magnet results in weakening of induction. It is worth remembering the thermal limit for a given model.
Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.
Warnings
Danger to the youngest
NdFeB magnets are not intended for children. Swallowing a few magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a severe health hazard and requires immediate surgery.
Immense force
Be careful. Neodymium magnets attract from a long distance and connect with huge force, often quicker than you can react.
Skin irritation risks
Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If redness occurs, immediately stop working with magnets and wear gloves.
Impact on smartphones
A strong magnetic field disrupts the functioning of compasses in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets near a smartphone to avoid damaging the sensors.
Electronic devices
Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
Crushing risk
Watch your fingers. Two large magnets will join instantly with a force of massive weight, destroying everything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Fire risk
Dust created during machining of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.
Magnets are brittle
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.
Permanent damage
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet to high heat will ruin its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Warning for heart patients
People with a heart stimulator must maintain an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.
