1. Vertical hold
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 material, the critical limit 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 neodymium magnets.
Pros
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetism drop as a result of external fields,
- Thanks to the elegant finish, the surface of nickel, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an visually attractive appearance,
- Magnets possess excellent magnetic induction on the working surface,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Thanks to freedom in shaping and the ability to customize to unusual requirements,
- Significant place in future technologies – they are utilized in magnetic memories, motor assemblies, medical devices, and technologically advanced constructions.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices
Cons
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Limited ability of producing nuts in the magnet and complex forms - recommended is cover - magnet mounting.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process 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
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what affects it?
- using a sheet made of mild steel, functioning as a circuit closing element
- whose thickness is min. 10 mm
- with an ideally smooth touching surface
- with direct contact (no impurities)
- under vertical force direction (90-degree angle)
- at conditions approx. 20°C
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), as even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
- Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
- Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic properties and holding force.
- Smoothness – ideal contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they are weaker, 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 lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
H&S for magnets
Finger safety
Big blocks can smash fingers instantly. Under no circumstances put your hand between two strong magnets.
Operating temperature
Do not overheat. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
GPS Danger
Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Keep a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.
Life threat
For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
Respect the power
Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even professionals. Stay alert and respect their power.
Cards and drives
Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.
Beware of splinters
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Dust explosion hazard
Fire warning: Neodymium dust is explosive. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Danger to the youngest
Neodymium magnets are not intended for children. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a critical condition and requires immediate surgery.
Nickel coating and allergies
Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and use protective gear.
