1. Wall mount (shear)
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 0.71
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.

Other products
Advantages as well as disadvantages of rare earth magnets.
Pros
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss as a result of external fields,
- In other words, due to the metallic finish of nickel, the element becomes visually attractive,
- They feature high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which improves attraction properties,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Possibility of accurate shaping as well as optimizing to defined needs,
- Significant place in modern technologies – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric motors, diagnostic systems, as well as other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in small dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems
Disadvantages
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power 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 corrode. Therefore when using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Due to limitations in realizing nuts and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic holder.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to expensive raw materials, their price exceeds standard values,
Holding force characteristics
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what affects it?
- using a base made of high-permeability steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
- with a thickness of at least 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- without the slightest air gap between the magnet and steel
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- at ambient temperature room level
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Distance (between the magnet and the plate), since even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drastic drop in force by up to 50% (this also applies to paint, corrosion or debris).
- Angle of force application – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the plate is typically many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of generating force.
- Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Thermal conditions – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and at low temperatures they can be stronger (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Warnings
Conscious usage
Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.
Fragile material
Despite metallic appearance, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.
Implant safety
For implant holders: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
Do not give to children
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, leading to severe trauma. Keep away from kids and pets.
Heat warning
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and pulling force.
Hand protection
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can result in hematomas, pinching, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Warning for allergy sufferers
Certain individuals experience a contact allergy to nickel, which is the standard coating for neodymium magnets. Frequent touching may cause a rash. It is best to use safety gloves.
Data carriers
Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on payment cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.
Dust explosion hazard
Powder created during cutting of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Phone sensors
Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.
