1. Wall mount (shear)
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds just a fraction of its max power.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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
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
Strengths as well as weaknesses of rare earth magnets.
Pros
- They retain magnetic properties for nearly 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by remarkably resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external interference,
- In other words, due to the smooth finish of gold, the element becomes visually attractive,
- Magnets have excellent magnetic induction on the surface,
- Through (appropriate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, enabling operation at temperatures reaching 230°C and above...
- Thanks to versatility in constructing and the ability to customize to specific needs,
- Universal use in electronics industry – they are utilized in HDD drives, electromotive mechanisms, medical devices, and modern systems.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in small dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Weaknesses
- At strong impacts they can break, therefore we advise placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- We recommend casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in creating threads inside the magnet and complex shapes.
- Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Additionally, small elements of these devices can complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
- Due to neodymium price, their price exceeds standard values,
Pull force analysis
Maximum magnetic pulling force – what contributes to it?
- on a plate made of mild steel, optimally conducting the magnetic flux
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with a surface free of scratches
- with direct contact (no coatings)
- for force applied at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at standard ambient temperature
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Gap between surfaces – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Pull-off angle – note that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under sliding down, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Plate thickness – too thin plate causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be wasted to the other side.
- Material type – the best choice is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may attract less.
- Surface finish – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Rough texture create air cushions, reducing force.
- Temperature – heating the magnet results in weakening of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Heat sensitivity
Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Keep away from computers
Equipment safety: Neodymium magnets can damage payment cards and sensitive devices (pacemakers, medical aids, mechanical watches).
Fragile material
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are very brittle. Collision of two magnets will cause them shattering into small pieces.
Medical implants
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields disrupt electronics. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Crushing force
Pinching hazard: The pulling power is so great that it can result in hematomas, crushing, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
Do not give to children
Strictly store magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
Fire risk
Mechanical processing of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Warning for allergy sufferers
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid touching magnets with bare hands and opt for coated magnets.
Precision electronics
Note: rare earth magnets generate a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.
Do not underestimate power
Handle with care. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.
