1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only a fraction of its perpendicular strength.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely reduces the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*For N38 material, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.55
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
- They do not lose strength, even after around 10 years – the reduction in power is only ~1% (according to tests),
- They retain their magnetic properties even under external field action,
- The use of an metallic coating of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to present itself better,
- Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet is maximum,
- Thanks to resistance to high temperature, they are capable of working (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and higher...
- Thanks to modularity in designing and the ability to modify to client solutions,
- Wide application in modern technologies – they serve a role in mass storage devices, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, and technologically advanced constructions.
- Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Disadvantages
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a steel housing, which not only secures them against impacts but also raises their durability
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore while using outdoors, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material protecting against moisture
- We recommend casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing threads inside the magnet and complex shapes.
- Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices can be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?
- using a plate made of low-carbon steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
- possessing a massiveness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
- characterized by even structure
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
- during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
- at standard ambient temperature
Magnet lifting force in use – key factors
- Air gap (between the magnet and the plate), since even a microscopic clearance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or dirt).
- Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Element thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Steel type – mild steel attracts best. Alloy steels lower magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
- Surface quality – the more even the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
- Temperature influence – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Holding force was checked on the plate surface of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under parallel forces the holding force is lower. In addition, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
Safe handling of neodymium magnets
Respect the power
Handle magnets with awareness. Their huge power can shock even experienced users. Stay alert and respect their force.
Electronic hazard
Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetic field can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.
Risk of cracking
Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Allergy Warning
It is widely known that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent touching magnets with bare hands or opt for versions in plastic housing.
Demagnetization risk
Keep cool. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to temperature. If you need operation above 80°C, look for HT versions (H, SH, UH).
Warning for heart patients
Patients with a pacemaker have to keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can disrupt the operation of the implant.
Crushing risk
Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying anything in their path. Be careful!
Dust explosion hazard
Drilling and cutting of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Precision electronics
Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a strong magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
Choking Hazard
Absolutely store magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
