1. Sliding resistance
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely ~20% of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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.

Pros as well as cons of rare earth magnets.
Strengths
- They do not lose magnetism, even after approximately ten years – the decrease in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetism drop when exposed to external magnetic sources,
- The use of an elegant layer of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to be more visually attractive,
- Neodymium magnets ensure maximum magnetic induction on a small surface, which increases force concentration,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for functioning at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Due to the option of precise shaping and customization to custom needs, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a broad palette of geometric configurations, which makes them more universal,
- Universal use in future technologies – they serve a role in hard drives, brushless drives, medical equipment, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Weaknesses
- They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- We recommend casing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Pull force analysis
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?
- on a block made of structural steel, effectively closing the magnetic flux
- possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- with an ground touching surface
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Clearance – existence of any layer (paint, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which lowers capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Direction of force – highest force is reached only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Substrate thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content weaken the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface condition – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which improves force. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Temperature influence – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was performed on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.
H&S for magnets
Beware of splinters
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets leads to them breaking into small pieces.
Threat to navigation
Be aware: neodymium magnets generate a field that confuses precision electronics. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, device, and GPS.
Mechanical processing
Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Powerful field
Handle magnets with awareness. Their huge power can surprise even professionals. Be vigilant and respect their power.
Pinching danger
Danger of trauma: The attraction force is so great that it can result in blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
Keep away from children
Always store magnets out of reach of children. Choking hazard is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are fatal.
Heat sensitivity
Watch the temperature. Exposing the magnet to high heat will ruin its properties and strength.
Warning for heart patients
Medical warning: Strong magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
Allergy Warning
Certain individuals experience a sensitization to Ni, which is the common plating for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact might lead to a rash. It is best to use safety gloves.
Threat to electronics
Avoid bringing magnets near a purse, laptop, or screen. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
