1. Wall mount (shear)
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.26
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.
Advantages
- They do not lose power, even after around ten years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss when exposed to external fields,
- Thanks to the elegant finish, the surface of nickel, gold, or silver-plated gives an aesthetic appearance,
- Magnets have maximum magnetic induction on the surface,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are able to function (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to flexibility in forming and the capacity to modify to client solutions,
- Huge importance in modern technologies – they are commonly used in magnetic memories, electromotive mechanisms, diagnostic systems, and other advanced devices.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Weaknesses
- At strong impacts they can break, therefore we recommend placing them in special holders. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
- Neodymium magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (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 extremely resistant to heat
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic holder.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- Due to complex production process, their price is relatively high,
Holding force characteristics
Highest magnetic holding force – what it depends on?
- using a plate made of low-carbon steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
- possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- with an ground touching surface
- with total lack of distance (without coatings)
- for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Space between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) diminishes the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Thin sheet restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Plate material – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Surface finish – ideal contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.
Warnings
Flammability
Dust created during grinding of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
Electronic hazard
Powerful magnetic fields can erase data on payment cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Stay away of at least 10 cm.
Swallowing risk
Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to serious injuries. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Do not overheat magnets
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Magnetic interference
GPS units and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.
Crushing risk
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join immediately with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Powerful field
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can react.
Health Danger
Life threat: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
Material brittleness
Protect your eyes. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Wear goggles.
Skin irritation risks
Nickel alert: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If redness appears, cease working with magnets and wear gloves.
