1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just a fraction of its max power.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For standard magnets, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.13
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.

Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They have stable power, and over around ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
- They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss due to opposing magnetic fields,
- The use of an elegant finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a strong magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are able to function (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to freedom in shaping and the capacity to adapt to specific needs,
- Versatile presence in advanced technology sectors – they are commonly used in computer drives, electric drive systems, medical devices, and other advanced devices.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications
Cons
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in strength. 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
- They oxidize in a humid environment - during use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we recommend using casing - magnetic holder.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Lifting parameters
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?
- on a base made of structural steel, perfectly concentrating the magnetic field
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- with an polished contact surface
- with zero gap (no coatings)
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
- at ambient temperature room level
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
- Distance (between the magnet and the plate), as even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
- Force direction – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Steel thickness – too thin steel does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be wasted into the air.
- Steel grade – the best choice is pure iron steel. Cast iron may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Surface finish – full contact is possible only on smooth steel. Rough texture reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
- Thermal factor – high temperature weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Warnings
Beware of splinters
Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.
Dust explosion hazard
Dust created during cutting of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Phone sensors
A powerful magnetic field interferes with the functioning of compasses in phones and navigation systems. Keep magnets close to a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.
Medical implants
Life threat: Neodymium magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
Nickel allergy
Medical facts indicate that nickel (the usual finish) is a common allergen. For allergy sufferers, prevent direct skin contact or choose encased magnets.
Bone fractures
Risk of injury: The attraction force is so great that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
Do not give to children
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to serious injuries. Keep away from children and animals.
Permanent damage
Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you require resistance above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Do not underestimate power
Exercise caution. Neodymium magnets attract from a long distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.
Magnetic media
Device Safety: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
