1. Sliding resistance
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.25
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 neodymium magnets.
Benefits
- Their power remains stable, and after approximately 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
- Neodymium magnets prove to be remarkably resistant to demagnetization caused by external field sources,
- By covering with a smooth coating of gold, the element presents an professional look,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a powerful magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Possibility of detailed shaping and optimizing to atypical applications,
- Huge importance in high-tech industry – they find application in HDD drives, drive modules, medical equipment, as well as multitasking production systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Weaknesses
- At strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
- NdFeB magnets lose strength when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (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 very resistant to heat
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
- Due to limitations in creating nuts and complicated shapes in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mount.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small components of these magnets can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- Due to complex production process, their price is higher than average,
Lifting parameters
Maximum magnetic pulling force – what contributes to it?
- using a sheet made of mild steel, functioning as a circuit closing element
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with an ideally smooth contact surface
- under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
- under perpendicular application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Gap between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) drastically reduces the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Plate thickness – insufficiently thick steel causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
- Chemical composition of the base – mild steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
- Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which improves force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Thermal environment – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of force. Check the thermal limit for a given model.
Lifting capacity was measured using a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, whereas under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Keep away from electronics
GPS units and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.
Safe operation
Handle magnets with awareness. Their immense force can surprise even professionals. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their force.
Medical implants
Medical warning: Neodymium magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
Machining danger
Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Fragile material
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are fragile like glass. Collision of two magnets will cause them breaking into small pieces.
Operating temperature
Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you need operation above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Nickel coating and allergies
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid touching magnets with bare hands and choose versions in plastic housing.
Hand protection
Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can cause hematomas, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
Protect data
Do not bring magnets near a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.
Swallowing risk
Always keep magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
