1. Vertical hold
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds merely ~20% of its max power.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 0.45
The chart above illustrates the magnetic characteristics of the material within the second quadrant of the hysteresis loop. 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.
Pros
- They retain magnetic properties for almost ten years – the drop is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
- A magnet with a smooth gold surface is more attractive,
- Neodymium magnets ensure maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Thanks to flexibility in shaping and the ability to customize to complex applications,
- Versatile presence in electronics industry – they find application in computer drives, electromotive mechanisms, medical equipment, also complex engineering applications.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,
Weaknesses
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power 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
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can corrode. Therefore while using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
- We recommend casing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
- Potential hazard related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical in case of swallowing.
- With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?
- using a plate made of high-permeability steel, acting as a circuit closing element
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- without any air gap between the magnet and steel
- under perpendicular force vector (90-degree angle)
- at room temperature
Magnet lifting force in use – key factors
- Gap between magnet and steel – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by veneer or unevenness) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Angle of force application – highest force is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is typically several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of generating force.
- Metal type – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
- Temperature influence – hot environment weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was performed on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under shearing force the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.
H&S for magnets
Do not give to children
NdFeB magnets are not toys. Eating a few magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which constitutes a severe health hazard and necessitates urgent medical intervention.
Warning for allergy sufferers
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a potent allergen. If you have an allergy, avoid touching magnets with bare hands and select coated magnets.
Pinching danger
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Health Danger
Individuals with a pacemaker must maintain an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.
Magnetic interference
Remember: rare earth magnets produce a field that disrupts sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and GPS.
Fire warning
Dust generated during grinding of magnets is flammable. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Cards and drives
Intense magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Keep a distance of min. 10 cm.
Thermal limits
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and strength.
Do not underestimate power
Handle with care. Rare earth magnets act from a long distance and connect with massive power, often faster than you can react.
Protective goggles
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Collision of two magnets will cause them shattering into small pieces.
