1. Vertical hold
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 0.62
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.
Strengths
- They do not lose power, even over around 10 years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are extremely resistant to demagnetization induced by external magnetic fields,
- Thanks to the shiny finish, the coating of nickel, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an professional appearance,
- Magnets exhibit maximum magnetic induction on the active area,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- In view of the potential of precise molding and customization to unique projects, NdFeB magnets can be manufactured in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
- Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, diagnostic systems, as well as modern systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Weaknesses
- At very strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's 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.
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material stable to moisture, in case of application outdoors
- We suggest casing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these products are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to expensive raw materials, their price exceeds standard values,
Lifting parameters
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?
- on a plate made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
- possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- characterized by smoothness
- without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
- under axial application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at ambient temperature room level
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), because even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
- Force direction – note that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives weaken the attraction effect.
- Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
- Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.
Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Maximum temperature
Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need resistance above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Nickel allergy
A percentage of the population have a sensitization to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact can result in a rash. We recommend use protective gloves.
Medical interference
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Conscious usage
Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.
Physical harm
Big blocks can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Never put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
Cards and drives
Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can destroy these devices and wipe information from cards.
Eye protection
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.
Fire warning
Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
This is not a toy
Product intended for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, causing intestinal necrosis. Store out of reach of kids and pets.
Phone sensors
A powerful magnetic field interferes with the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets near a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.
