1. Shear force
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.42
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.
Strengths
- Their strength is maintained, and after around ten years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- Magnets effectively resist against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- Thanks to the metallic finish, the plating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver-plated gives an elegant appearance,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a unique magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for action at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Thanks to versatility in designing and the ability to adapt to unusual requirements,
- Wide application in advanced technology sectors – they find application in mass storage devices, motor assemblies, medical equipment, also industrial machines.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Cons
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material stable to moisture, in case of application outdoors
- Limited ability of producing nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - preferred is a housing - mounting mechanism.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Due to complex production process, their price exceeds standard values,
Holding force characteristics
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what affects it?
- with the use of a sheet made of low-carbon steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
- whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- under conditions of gap-free contact (metal-to-metal)
- for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at room temperature
Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors
- Air gap (between the magnet and the metal), since even a very small clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or debris).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When attempting to slide, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
- Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Thermal conditions – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Magnets are brittle
Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.
Protect data
Device Safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Immense force
Handle with care. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.
Operating temperature
Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.
GPS Danger
Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.
Swallowing risk
Absolutely store magnets away from children. Choking hazard is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.
Health Danger
Health Alert: Strong magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.
Do not drill into magnets
Mechanical processing of neodymium magnets poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Nickel coating and allergies
A percentage of the population experience a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching might lead to dermatitis. We recommend wear protective gloves.
Crushing risk
Big blocks can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances put your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
