1. Shear force
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically weakens 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) = 0.35
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.
Advantages
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by remarkably resistant to demagnetization caused by magnetic disturbances,
- The use of an aesthetic layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a powerful magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Thanks to the ability of precise molding and customization to unique requirements, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a broad palette of shapes and sizes, which makes them more universal,
- Key role in modern industrial fields – they are utilized in HDD drives, electric motors, diagnostic systems, as well as multitasking production systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in small dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices
Weaknesses
- They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- Neodymium magnets decrease their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in creating nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mechanism.
- Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that small elements of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Maximum magnetic pulling force – what affects it?
- on a block made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
- whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
- with a surface perfectly flat
- with total lack of distance (without paint)
- during detachment in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
- in stable room temperature
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
- Distance (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or dirt).
- Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Steel thickness – insufficiently thick sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
- Metal type – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content worsen the attraction effect.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps create air cushions, weakening the magnet.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. When it is hot they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Warning for allergy sufferers
It is widely known that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid direct skin contact or select versions in plastic housing.
Dust is flammable
Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Medical implants
Medical warning: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.
Electronic devices
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
Powerful field
Before starting, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.
Keep away from electronics
GPS units and smartphones are extremely susceptible to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can ruin the internal compass in your phone.
Crushing risk
Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so great that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Magnet fragility
Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting shards into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
This is not a toy
Strictly keep magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Permanent damage
Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you require operation above 80°C, inquire about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
