1. Vertical hold
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely limits the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.30
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 neodymium magnets.
Pros
- They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over nearly ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- They feature excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties as a result of external magnetic sources,
- Thanks to the reflective finish, the surface of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver-plated gives an aesthetic appearance,
- Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which increases force concentration,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Thanks to the option of flexible forming and adaptation to custom projects, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a variety of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
- Versatile presence in future technologies – they are utilized in magnetic memories, motor assemblies, advanced medical instruments, and industrial machines.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in tiny dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Cons
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a special holder, which not only protects 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 - during use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in creating threads and complicated forms in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mount.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to complex production process, their price exceeds standard values,
Lifting parameters
Maximum magnetic pulling force – what it depends on?
- with the application of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
- possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
- characterized by smoothness
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the plane
- at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Distance – existence of any layer (paint, tape, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, 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. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface structure – the more even the plate, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness creates an air distance.
- Heat – NdFeB sinters have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Safe operation
Be careful. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.
Safe distance
Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.
Phone sensors
Note: neodymium magnets generate a field that disrupts precision electronics. Keep a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.
Bodily injuries
Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Avoid contact if allergic
It is widely known that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, refrain from direct skin contact and choose versions in plastic housing.
Flammability
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Adults only
Absolutely store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.
Pacemakers
For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields disrupt electronics. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.
Permanent damage
Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, inquire about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Risk of cracking
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets will cause them shattering into shards.
