1. Vertical hold
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically reduces the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 0.76
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.

Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.
Strengths
- Their magnetic field is maintained, and after around 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
- They retain their magnetic properties even under close interference source,
- By applying a decorative coating of silver, the element presents an nice look,
- Magnets possess extremely high magnetic induction on the outer layer,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, enabling operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Possibility of accurate shaping as well as adjusting to atypical requirements,
- Key role in advanced technology sectors – they are used in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, precision medical tools, and technologically advanced constructions.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices
Limitations
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic holder.
- Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, tiny parts of these magnets can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Pull force analysis
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what it depends on?
- with the application of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
- possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a plane cleaned and smooth
- with total lack of distance (without impurities)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at temperature room level
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Gap (between the magnet and the metal), since even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
- Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Plate thickness – insufficiently thick sheet does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be lost into the air.
- Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Cast iron may have worse magnetic properties.
- Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Heat – NdFeB sinters have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, in contrast under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Warnings
Magnets are brittle
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets will cause them cracking into small pieces.
Nickel allergy
Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating contains nickel. If skin irritation appears, cease handling magnets and use protective gear.
Crushing force
Large magnets can break fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not place your hand between two attracting surfaces.
Impact on smartphones
An intense magnetic field negatively affects the functioning of compasses in phones and navigation systems. Keep magnets near a device to prevent damaging the sensors.
Warning for heart patients
For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Electronic hazard
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and wipe information from cards.
Conscious usage
Use magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even experienced users. Stay alert and respect their force.
Machining danger
Powder produced during cutting of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Adults only
Neodymium magnets are not intended for children. Eating a few magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which poses a critical condition and necessitates immediate surgery.
Operating temperature
Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) lose power when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.
