1. Shear force
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 0.80
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.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.
Pros
- They do not lose strength, even over approximately ten years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (theoretically),
- They possess excellent resistance to magnetic field loss as a result of external fields,
- In other words, due to the metallic surface of nickel, the element gains visual value,
- Magnets are characterized by excellent magnetic induction on the outer layer,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, enabling operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Due to the option of free shaping and customization to individualized solutions, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Wide application in future technologies – they are commonly used in HDD drives, electromotive mechanisms, diagnostic systems, also complex engineering applications.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in small dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices
Disadvantages
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in creating nuts and complex forms in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mechanism.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Due to expensive raw materials, their price is higher than average,
Lifting parameters
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
- using a plate made of mild steel, serving as a ideal flux conductor
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with a surface free of scratches
- without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
- under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at room temperature
Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors
- Clearance – the presence of foreign body (rust, dirt, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Plate thickness – too thin sheet does not accept the full field, causing part of the power to be lost to the other side.
- Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Heat – 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 was assessed by applying a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Do not give to children
Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing severe trauma. Store away from children and animals.
Data carriers
Equipment safety: Strong magnets can ruin payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Permanent damage
Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose magnetization when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.
Threat to navigation
GPS units and mobile phones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.
Protective goggles
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.
Warning for allergy sufferers
A percentage of the population experience a contact allergy to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching may cause skin redness. We recommend wear safety gloves.
Fire warning
Powder created during grinding of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.
Safe operation
Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and connect with huge force, often faster than you can move away.
Crushing force
Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so great that it can cause hematomas, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
Life threat
Life threat: Neodymium magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
