1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*For N38 material, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 1.21
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.

Strengths and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.
Advantages
- Their magnetic field is durable, and after approximately 10 years it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
- Neodymium magnets prove to be remarkably resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external interference,
- A magnet with a metallic gold surface has an effective appearance,
- Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a small area, which allows for strong attraction,
- 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 the potential of free forming and customization to specialized needs, magnetic components can be produced in a wide range of forms and dimensions, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Universal use in high-tech industry – they are used in hard drives, motor assemblies, medical equipment, and complex engineering applications.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages
- They are prone to damage upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing 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 lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- They rust in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complicated shapes - preferred is a housing - magnet mounting.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities
Lifting parameters
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?
- on a block made of structural steel, effectively closing the magnetic flux
- possessing a thickness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with a plane perfectly flat
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
- under vertical application of breakaway force (90-degree angle)
- at conditions approx. 20°C
Key elements affecting lifting force
- Clearance – existence of any layer (rust, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which reduces power steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the holding force drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
- Wall thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Part of the magnetic field penetrates through instead of generating force.
- Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the attraction effect.
- Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal environment – temperature increase results in weakening of induction. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Fire warning
Dust generated during machining of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets unless you are an expert.
Warning for heart patients
Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
Threat to electronics
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and wipe information from cards.
Demagnetization risk
Keep cool. NdFeB magnets are susceptible to temperature. If you require resistance above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Bone fractures
Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of massive weight, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Skin irritation risks
Some people have a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling may cause a rash. We suggest use safety gloves.
Choking Hazard
Strictly keep magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Eye protection
Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, launching shards into the air. We recommend safety glasses.
Immense force
Use magnets with awareness. Their immense force can surprise even professionals. Plan your moves and respect their force.
Impact on smartphones
An intense magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Do not bring magnets close to a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.
