1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just a fraction of its max power.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For standard magnets, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.49
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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (based on calculations),
- Neodymium magnets are distinguished by remarkably resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external interference,
- In other words, due to the reflective surface of gold, the element gains a professional look,
- Magnets are distinguished by maximum magnetic induction on the working surface,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for functioning at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Considering the possibility of accurate molding and customization to unique solutions, NdFeB magnets can be manufactured in a wide range of geometric configurations, which amplifies use scope,
- Versatile presence in innovative solutions – they serve a role in mass storage devices, electric motors, medical equipment, and technologically advanced constructions.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in small systems
Cons
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a special holder, which not only secures them against impacts but also increases their durability
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. 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. For use outdoors we suggest using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mechanism.
- Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities
Pull force analysis
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what affects it?
- with the application of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
- possessing a thickness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a plane free of scratches
- without any insulating layer between the magnet and steel
- for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- in stable room temperature
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Distance – the presence of any layer (paint, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content lower magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Surface condition – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Heat – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. When it is hot they are weaker, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Warnings
Keep away from electronics
Note: neodymium magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Maintain a safe distance from your phone, device, and navigation systems.
Do not underestimate power
Before use, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Be predictive.
Threat to electronics
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
Fire warning
Fire warning: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Implant safety
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to handle the magnets.
Material brittleness
Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
This is not a toy
Always store magnets away from children. Choking hazard is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are tragic.
Operating temperature
Standard neodymium magnets (grade N) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.
Allergic reactions
Warning for allergy sufferers: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If redness occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.
Bone fractures
Pinching hazard: The attraction force is so immense that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
