1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.38
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.
Advantages
- They have stable power, and over around 10 years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- They have excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties when exposed to external magnetic sources,
- By covering with a reflective layer of nickel, the element presents an modern look,
- Neodymium magnets ensure maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which increases force concentration,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to flexibility in forming and the capacity to modify to client solutions,
- Key role in electronics industry – they find application in magnetic memories, brushless drives, medical equipment, and other advanced devices.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Limitations
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a special holder, which not only secures them against impacts but also increases their durability
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 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 secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- We suggest casing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,
Pull force analysis
Highest magnetic holding force – what affects it?
- with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
- possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a plane cleaned and smooth
- with direct contact (no impurities)
- under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at temperature room level
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or dirt) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Load vector – highest force is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be sufficiently thick. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Steel grade – ideal substrate is high-permeability steel. Cast iron may attract less.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
- Temperature – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Holding force was tested on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.
Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Demagnetization risk
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Crushing force
Danger of trauma: The attraction force is so great that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
ICD Warning
Individuals with a ICD should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the functioning of the implant.
Danger to the youngest
Strictly store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Allergic reactions
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If you have an allergy, avoid direct skin contact or select encased magnets.
Risk of cracking
Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
Protect data
Do not bring magnets close to a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.
Safe operation
Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.
Dust explosion hazard
Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Magnetic interference
Navigation devices and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.
