1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.

chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.46
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 and cons of rare earth magnets.
Pros
- They do not lose power, even during nearly 10 years – the drop in lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- Neodymium magnets prove to be exceptionally resistant to demagnetization caused by external interference,
- Thanks to the reflective finish, the layer of nickel, gold-plated, or silver gives an professional appearance,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a unique magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Possibility of exact machining as well as modifying to defined conditions,
- Huge importance in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in hard drives, motor assemblies, advanced medical instruments, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Limitations
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength 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 and corrosion.
- We suggest a housing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what it depends on?
- using a base made of low-carbon steel, serving as a magnetic yoke
- with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
- with a surface free of scratches
- without the slightest insulating layer between the magnet and steel
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the plane
- in neutral thermal conditions
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Distance (between the magnet and the metal), because even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Paper-thin metal restricts the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. High carbon content worsen the attraction effect.
- Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
- Temperature – temperature increase results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Bodily injuries
Large magnets can break fingers instantly. Do not place your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.
Powerful field
Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.
GPS and phone interference
A strong magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Keep magnets close to a smartphone to avoid breaking the sensors.
Machining danger
Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Do not give to children
Absolutely store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Nickel coating and allergies
A percentage of the population have a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact might lead to a rash. We strongly advise use protective gloves.
Electronic devices
Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.
Medical implants
Life threat: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
Beware of splinters
Protect your eyes. Magnets can explode upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.
Demagnetization risk
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet to high heat will ruin its properties and strength.
