1. Shear force
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.80
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.

Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.
Benefits
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
- They do not lose their magnetic properties even under external field action,
- The use of an elegant coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
- Magnetic induction on the working layer of the magnet turns out to be very high,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Thanks to versatility in constructing and the ability to customize to unusual requirements,
- Huge importance in electronics industry – they are used in HDD drives, electric drive systems, medical devices, and industrial machines.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in compact dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices
Disadvantages
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Limited possibility of creating threads in the magnet and complicated shapes - preferred is cover - magnetic holder.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to expensive raw materials, their price exceeds standard values,
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
- on a plate made of mild steel, effectively closing the magnetic field
- possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a plane perfectly flat
- with zero gap (without paint)
- for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at room temperature
What influences lifting capacity in practice
- Distance – the presence of foreign body (rust, tape, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Material type – the best choice is high-permeability steel. Hardened steels may have worse magnetic properties.
- Smoothness – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
- Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. Check the thermal limit for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Precision electronics
An intense magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets near a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.
Crushing risk
Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Never place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
Implant safety
People with a ICD have to maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the functioning of the life-saving device.
Permanent damage
Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature surpasses 80°C. Damage is permanent.
Adults only
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts can be swallowed, causing intestinal necrosis. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
Dust is flammable
Powder created during grinding of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.
Metal Allergy
It is widely known that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid touching magnets with bare hands or select encased magnets.
Fragile material
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them cracking into shards.
Respect the power
Use magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even professionals. Stay alert and respect their force.
Magnetic media
Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, medical aids, timepieces).
