1. Shear force
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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) = 0.61
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 and cons of rare earth magnets.
Benefits
- They retain magnetic properties for around 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetism drop due to external magnetic sources,
- A magnet with a metallic gold surface looks better,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a powerful magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, enabling action at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Considering the potential of free molding and customization to custom requirements, NdFeB magnets can be produced in a variety of forms and dimensions, which increases their versatility,
- Fundamental importance in advanced technology sectors – they serve a role in HDD drives, drive modules, medical equipment, as well as technologically advanced constructions.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Weaknesses
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures them against impacts but also increases their durability
- Neodymium magnets decrease their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, when using outdoors
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we propose using casing - magnetic mount.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what affects it?
- with the use of a yoke made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with a plane cleaned and smooth
- with zero gap (no paint)
- for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors
- Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Load vector – maximum parameter is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is usually several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Metal type – not every steel reacts the same. Alloy additives weaken the attraction effect.
- Surface finish – full contact is obtained only on smooth steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, weakening the magnet.
- Thermal factor – hot environment weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Holding force was tested on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.
Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Do not drill into magnets
Drilling and cutting of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Safe distance
Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, computer, or screen. The magnetic field can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.
ICD Warning
For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields disrupt medical devices. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Permanent damage
Control the heat. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its properties and pulling force.
Powerful field
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a long distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.
Nickel allergy
Allergy Notice: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If an allergic reaction occurs, cease handling magnets and wear gloves.
Physical harm
Watch your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of massive weight, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Fragile material
Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon uncontrolled impact, launching sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
Product not for children
Only for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing serious injuries. Store away from children and animals.
Keep away from electronics
GPS units and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.
