1. Wall mount (shear)
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For N38 grade, the safety limit 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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Pros
- Their power is maintained, and after around 10 years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- Neodymium magnets remain exceptionally resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by magnetic disturbances,
- By using a smooth layer of gold, the element has an proper look,
- Magnets are distinguished by very high magnetic induction on the active area,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Considering the option of precise shaping and customization to unique solutions, NdFeB magnets can be manufactured in a variety of shapes and sizes, which makes them more universal,
- Universal use in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric motors, precision medical tools, as well as other advanced devices.
- Thanks to concentrated force, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,
Limitations
- At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
- NdFeB magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of strength (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Limited ability of making threads in the magnet and complex shapes - recommended is casing - magnet mounting.
- Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Additionally, small elements of these magnets are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets is a challenge,
Pull force analysis
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?
- on a plate made of mild steel, effectively closing the magnetic field
- possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with an ground touching surface
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
- at temperature room level
Magnet lifting force in use – key factors
- Gap between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet holds strongest perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the capacity drops drastically, often to levels of 20-30% of the maximum value.
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Plate material – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness creates an air distance.
- Thermal factor – hot environment weakens pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity was assessed with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.
Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Bodily injuries
Watch your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Impact on smartphones
A strong magnetic field disrupts the functioning of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Maintain magnets close to a smartphone to prevent breaking the sensors.
Electronic devices
Data protection: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Skin irritation risks
Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and opt for encased magnets.
Handling rules
Before use, read the rules. Uncontrolled attraction can destroy the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.
Flammability
Machining of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Maximum temperature
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet to high heat will destroy its magnetic structure and strength.
Product not for children
Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing intestinal necrosis. Store out of reach of kids and pets.
Life threat
Patients with a pacemaker have to keep an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the functioning of the implant.
Eye protection
Despite the nickel coating, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.
