1. Vertical hold
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For N38 material, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.31
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.

Other proposals
Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (according to literature),
- Magnets perfectly resist against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- By applying a lustrous layer of nickel, the element has an modern look,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a unique magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the shape) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Possibility of exact forming as well as optimizing to concrete needs,
- Huge importance in modern technologies – they are used in HDD drives, drive modules, medical devices, and other advanced devices.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in tiny dimensions, which enables their usage in small systems
Cons
- To avoid cracks under impact, we recommend using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Due to limitations in creating nuts and complicated shapes in magnets, we propose using a housing - magnetic mount.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which gains importance in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Holding force characteristics
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?
- with the use of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
- with a cross-section no less than 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- with total lack of distance (without impurities)
- for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at conditions approx. 20°C
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
- Gap (between the magnet and the metal), as even a tiny clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a decrease in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Base massiveness – insufficiently thick steel causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped to the other side.
- Steel grade – the best choice is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Base smoothness – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. Check the thermal limit for a given model.
Holding force was measured on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.
Warnings
Hand protection
Large magnets can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Under no circumstances put your hand between two strong magnets.
Nickel allergy
Some people experience a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact might lead to an allergic reaction. We suggest use protective gloves.
Data carriers
Data protection: Strong magnets can damage payment cards and delicate electronics (pacemakers, hearing aids, mechanical watches).
Product not for children
NdFeB magnets are not toys. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a critical condition and necessitates urgent medical intervention.
Flammability
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
Heat sensitivity
Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Respect the power
Use magnets consciously. Their huge power can shock even experienced users. Be vigilant and respect their force.
Shattering risk
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Medical implants
Health Alert: Strong magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
Impact on smartphones
Be aware: neodymium magnets produce a field that confuses sensitive sensors. Keep a separation from your phone, device, and navigation systems.
