1. Wall mount (shear)
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only a fraction of its max power.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically weakens the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 0.83
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 proposals
Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.
Benefits
- They retain full power for around 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
- They retain their magnetic properties even under strong external field,
- Thanks to the glossy finish, the coating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver gives an professional appearance,
- Neodymium magnets create maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Thanks to flexibility in forming and the capacity to customize to individual projects,
- Universal use in electronics industry – they are used in HDD drives, brushless drives, medical equipment, also complex engineering applications.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems
Weaknesses
- They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- Neodymium magnets decrease their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Due to limitations in creating threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic holder.
- Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small components of these magnets are able to complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
- With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,
Pull force analysis
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?
- using a base made of mild steel, serving as a circuit closing element
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with an ground touching surface
- with direct contact (without paint)
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
- in stable room temperature
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Clearance – the presence of foreign body (paint, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which lowers power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Angle of force application – highest force is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is usually many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may attract less.
- Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Temperature influence – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Powerful field
Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Warning for heart patients
Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
Fire warning
Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.
Data carriers
Device Safety: Strong magnets can ruin payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Heat sensitivity
Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) undergo demagnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. Damage is permanent.
Sensitization to coating
Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If redness happens, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.
Shattering risk
Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are prone to chipping. Collision of two magnets will cause them shattering into small pieces.
Pinching danger
Large magnets can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
Phone sensors
A powerful magnetic field disrupts the operation of compasses in smartphones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets close to a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.
This is not a toy
NdFeB magnets are not suitable for play. Eating a few magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which constitutes a critical condition and requires immediate surgery.
