1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.36
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 as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Advantages
- They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over nearly ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- By applying a shiny coating of silver, the element gains an nice look,
- Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet turns out to be exceptional,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to freedom in shaping and the capacity to modify to complex applications,
- Key role in future technologies – they are utilized in hard drives, electric drive systems, medical devices, as well as other advanced devices.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,
Limitations
- To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- Neodymium 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 extremely resistant to heat
- 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.
- Limited ability of producing threads in the magnet and complicated forms - preferred is casing - magnetic holder.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these products are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Holding force characteristics
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what affects it?
- using a sheet made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a ideal flux conductor
- whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
- for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors
- Distance – the presence of foreign body (paint, tape, gap) acts as an insulator, which reduces capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Plate thickness – insufficiently thick plate does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be wasted into the air.
- Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
- Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which improves force. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Heat – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they are weaker, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Operating temperature
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and strength.
Swallowing risk
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing severe trauma. Store out of reach of children and animals.
Do not drill into magnets
Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Caution required
Handle magnets consciously. Their huge power can shock even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their power.
Compass and GPS
Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.
Sensitization to coating
Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and use protective gear.
Material brittleness
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them shattering into shards.
Finger safety
Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Electronic hazard
Intense magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm.
ICD Warning
Medical warning: Strong magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
