1. Vertical hold
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 0.35
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 and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.
Strengths
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- Neodymium magnets remain extremely resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external field sources,
- By using a reflective coating of gold, the element gains an proper look,
- Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which allows for strong attraction,
- 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 precise machining and adapting to individual needs,
- Fundamental importance in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in computer drives, electric motors, diagnostic systems, as well as industrial machines.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices
Cons
- They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength 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
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
- Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complex forms - recommended is a housing - mounting mechanism.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- Due to neodymium price, their price is higher than average,
Pull force analysis
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?
- using a sheet made of mild steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with an ground touching surface
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- at ambient temperature room level
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, rust or dirt).
- Load vector – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is typically several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives weaken the interaction with the magnet.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is possible only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
GPS and phone interference
GPS units and mobile phones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.
Product not for children
Absolutely store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are tragic.
Allergy Warning
Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.
Permanent damage
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its properties and pulling force.
Medical interference
Individuals with a pacemaker must keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the implant.
Protect data
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.
Handling rules
Handle magnets with awareness. Their immense force can surprise even experienced users. Be vigilant and respect their power.
Bone fractures
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!
Mechanical processing
Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Material brittleness
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is brittle and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.
