1. Sliding resistance
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For standard magnets, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.27
The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. 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.

Strengths and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.
Benefits
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
- Magnets very well protect themselves against demagnetization caused by external fields,
- In other words, due to the metallic finish of silver, the element gains a professional look,
- Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Possibility of custom shaping and optimizing to specific conditions,
- Key role in future technologies – they are used in computer drives, electric drive systems, advanced medical instruments, as well as complex engineering applications.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Weaknesses
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its 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 and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Limited ability of producing threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is cover - magnetic holder.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, tiny parts of these magnets are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- With mass production 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, optimally conducting the magnetic field
- whose transverse dimension is min. 10 mm
- with a surface cleaned and smooth
- with total lack of distance (no paint)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Clearance – the presence of any layer (rust, tape, air) acts as an insulator, which reduces power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Angle of force application – maximum parameter is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is standardly many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Steel thickness – too thin sheet does not accept the full field, causing part of the power to be escaped into the air.
- Plate material – low-carbon steel attracts best. Higher carbon content lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which improves force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they are weaker, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.
H&S for magnets
Danger to the youngest
Strictly keep magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Handling guide
Use magnets consciously. Their huge power can shock even professionals. Plan your moves and respect their force.
GPS and phone interference
Note: neodymium magnets generate a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.
Data carriers
Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.
Allergic reactions
A percentage of the population have a contact allergy to nickel, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Frequent touching might lead to skin redness. We strongly advise wear protective gloves.
Dust is flammable
Dust created during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.
Material brittleness
Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.
Do not overheat magnets
Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
ICD Warning
Individuals with a heart stimulator must keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can stop the functioning of the life-saving device.
Bodily injuries
Big blocks can crush fingers instantly. Under no circumstances place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
