1. Vertical hold
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 grade, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.62
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 rare earth magnets.
Benefits
- They retain attractive force for around 10 years – the drop is just ~1% (in theory),
- They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- By applying a reflective layer of silver, the element has an modern look,
- They show high magnetic induction at the operating surface, making them more effective,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are able to function (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to flexibility in designing and the capacity to customize to client solutions,
- Fundamental importance in modern technologies – they are used in data components, brushless drives, medical devices, as well as other advanced devices.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Limitations
- 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
- NdFeB magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of power (a factor is the shape as well as dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
- We suggest casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these products can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- Due to neodymium price, their price exceeds standard values,
Lifting parameters
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?
- on a base made of mild steel, effectively closing the magnetic field
- possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- with a surface free of scratches
- without any air gap between the magnet and steel
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at conditions approx. 20°C
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Clearance – existence of any layer (rust, dirt, air) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Angle of force application – highest force is obtained only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Chemical composition of the base – mild steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface quality – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Heat – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and at low temperatures gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was determined using a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, however under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
H&S for magnets
Protective goggles
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.
Serious injuries
Large magnets can break fingers instantly. Never put your hand between two strong magnets.
Electronic hazard
Powerful magnetic fields can destroy records on payment cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.
Precision electronics
Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
Medical interference
For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.
Flammability
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.
Powerful field
Use magnets with awareness. Their huge power can surprise even experienced users. Be vigilant and respect their power.
Product not for children
Neodymium magnets are not intended for children. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.
Skin irritation risks
It is widely known that nickel (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid direct skin contact or choose versions in plastic housing.
Thermal limits
Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
