1. Sliding resistance
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only ~20% of its max power.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.48
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.
Benefits
- They do not lose power, even during nearly ten years – the reduction in lifting capacity is only ~1% (theoretically),
- Magnets effectively protect themselves against demagnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
- By using a reflective layer of silver, the element gains an elegant look,
- Neodymium magnets deliver maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which allows for strong attraction,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Thanks to freedom in shaping and the capacity to adapt to complex applications,
- Universal use in innovative solutions – they are utilized in hard drives, electric drive systems, precision medical tools, and complex engineering applications.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications
Limitations
- They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
- NdFeB magnets lose strength when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening 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 very resistant to heat
- They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in producing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic holder.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small components of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to complex production process, their price exceeds standard values,
Lifting parameters
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?
- using a base made of low-carbon steel, acting as a circuit closing element
- possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a surface cleaned and smooth
- under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
- under vertical force vector (90-degree angle)
- at room temperature
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) diminishes the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Base massiveness – insufficiently thick sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be lost to the other side.
- Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Thermal factor – hot environment weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Warnings
Conscious usage
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a distance and snap with massive power, often faster than you can react.
Implant safety
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets affect medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Warning for allergy sufferers
A percentage of the population experience a contact allergy to Ni, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in an allergic reaction. It is best to wear safety gloves.
Serious injuries
Danger of trauma: The attraction force is so immense that it can result in hematomas, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
Material brittleness
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets leads to them cracking into shards.
Thermal limits
Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its properties and strength.
Fire warning
Machining of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Precision electronics
Note: rare earth magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.
Do not give to children
Absolutely keep magnets away from children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.
Cards and drives
Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.
