1. Sliding resistance
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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
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.
Advantages
- They do not lose magnetism, even during around 10 years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- The use of an aesthetic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- In view of the potential of flexible forming and adaptation to custom needs, magnetic components can be created in a broad palette of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
- Key role in future technologies – they serve a role in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, as well as complex engineering applications.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can break. We advise keeping them in a steel housing, 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 suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Limited ability of making threads in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is casing - mounting mechanism.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small components of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,
Pull force analysis
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?
- on a base made of mild steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
- possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with an polished touching surface
- without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- in stable room temperature
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Clearance – the presence of any layer (paint, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Angle of force application – highest force is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the plate is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Material type – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Base smoothness – the more even the surface, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
- Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the holding force.
Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Nickel allergy
Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact or choose encased magnets.
Keep away from computers
Equipment safety: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Precision electronics
Note: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.
Product not for children
Strictly store magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Do not drill into magnets
Machining of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
ICD Warning
Patients with a heart stimulator should maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the operation of the implant.
Operating temperature
Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Material brittleness
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets leads to them shattering into small pieces.
Hand protection
Large magnets can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances place your hand between two attracting surfaces.
Do not underestimate power
Before use, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.
