1. Wall mount (shear)
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 1.00
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.
Advantages
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- Magnets very well protect themselves against loss of magnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- By covering with a lustrous coating of silver, the element gains an nice look,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is a key feature,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Thanks to freedom in forming and the ability to adapt to unusual requirements,
- Fundamental importance in high-tech industry – they find application in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, medical equipment, as well as modern systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they offer powerful magnetic field, making them ideal for precision applications
Cons
- They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we suggest our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore when using outdoors, we recommend using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- Due to limitations in producing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic mechanism.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the aspect of protecting the youngest. Furthermore, small elements of these products can complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- With large orders the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Lifting parameters
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what it depends on?
- with the application of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring full magnetic saturation
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- characterized by even structure
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at ambient temperature room level
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Space between surfaces – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Direction of force – highest force is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is usually many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
- Plate texture – ground elements guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
- Temperature influence – high temperature reduces magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a polished steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate lowers the holding force.
Warnings
Handling rules
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can move away.
Magnetic interference
Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can ruin the internal compass in your phone.
Mechanical processing
Powder created during grinding of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
Heat warning
Monitor thermal conditions. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its properties and strength.
Shattering risk
Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
Nickel coating and allergies
Studies show that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a strong allergen. If you have an allergy, avoid touching magnets with bare hands or choose versions in plastic housing.
Warning for heart patients
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt electronics. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
Choking Hazard
Neodymium magnets are not intended for children. Eating a few magnets may result in them connecting inside the digestive tract, which poses a severe health hazard and necessitates urgent medical intervention.
Crushing force
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and broken bones. Protective gloves are recommended.
Threat to electronics
Data protection: Neodymium magnets can ruin payment cards and delicate electronics (heart implants, hearing aids, timepieces).
