1. Vertical hold
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just ~20% of its max power.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly weakens the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*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) = 0.25
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 and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.
Strengths
- Their power is durable, and after around ten years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
- Magnets effectively protect themselves against demagnetization caused by ambient magnetic noise,
- Thanks to the glossy finish, the plating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an aesthetic appearance,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a concentrated magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- In view of the potential of free molding and customization to specialized requirements, neodymium magnets can be modeled in a variety of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
- Key role in high-tech industry – they are used in computer drives, drive modules, advanced medical instruments, also modern systems.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Limitations
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in a protective case. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
- NdFeB magnets lose power when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
- When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation and corrosion.
- Limited ability of producing nuts in the magnet and complicated shapes - preferred is casing - mounting mechanism.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small elements of these products can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Lifting parameters
Maximum lifting force for a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?
- with the application of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
- possessing a thickness of min. 10 mm to avoid saturation
- characterized by even structure
- under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
- during pulling in a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface
- in neutral thermal conditions
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
- Distance – the presence of foreign body (paint, tape, air) acts as an insulator, which reduces power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Direction of force – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is usually several times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Base massiveness – insufficiently thick sheet causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be escaped into the air.
- Steel type – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Higher carbon content reduce magnetic permeability and holding force.
- Surface condition – smooth surfaces ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
- Temperature influence – high temperature weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Handling guide
Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can shock even experienced users. Plan your moves and do not underestimate their power.
Keep away from electronics
An intense magnetic field disrupts the functioning of magnetometers in phones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets close to a device to prevent breaking the sensors.
Fragile material
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets leads to them cracking into small pieces.
Data carriers
Do not bring magnets near a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetism can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.
Hand protection
Big blocks can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand betwixt two attracting surfaces.
Avoid contact if allergic
A percentage of the population have a contact allergy to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact can result in an allergic reaction. It is best to use safety gloves.
Thermal limits
Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Swallowing risk
Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing intestinal necrosis. Keep out of reach of kids and pets.
Mechanical processing
Fire hazard: Neodymium dust is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this risks ignition.
Pacemakers
Patients with a pacemaker should keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can disrupt the functioning of the implant.
