1. Vertical hold
*Warning: On a vertical surface, the magnet holds just approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For N38 grade, the max working temp is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.44
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.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Pros
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the performance loss is only ~1% (based on calculations),
- They show high resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- A magnet with a metallic silver surface has an effective appearance,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a unique magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal strength, allowing for operation at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Thanks to flexibility in shaping and the capacity to modify to unusual requirements,
- Universal use in modern industrial fields – they are utilized in HDD drives, electric motors, medical devices, and multitasking production systems.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Cons
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets in special housings. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- Neodymium magnets lose their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material immune to moisture, when using outdoors
- We suggest casing - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in creating nuts inside the magnet and complex forms.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these products are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets have a higher price than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Pull force analysis
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what contributes to it?
- using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
- with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- with direct contact (without impurities)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- in stable room temperature
What influences lifting capacity in practice
- Space between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Load vector – highest force is available only during pulling at a 90° angle. The shear force of the magnet along the plate is typically several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Chemical composition of the base – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy admixtures reduce magnetic properties and holding force.
- Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which improves field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop 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, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
Warnings
Flammability
Mechanical processing of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Swallowing risk
Absolutely store magnets away from children. Choking hazard is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are very dangerous.
Medical implants
People with a pacemaker should keep an large gap from magnets. The magnetic field can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.
Hand protection
Risk of injury: The pulling power is so great that it can cause hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
Phone sensors
An intense magnetic field interferes with the operation of compasses in smartphones and navigation systems. Maintain magnets near a device to prevent breaking the sensors.
Eye protection
Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are prone to chipping. Clashing of two magnets leads to them breaking into shards.
Sensitization to coating
Allergy Notice: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation appears, immediately stop handling magnets and use protective gear.
Immense force
Before starting, read the rules. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.
Keep away from computers
Do not bring magnets near a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetism can destroy these devices and wipe information from cards.
Do not overheat magnets
Control the heat. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its magnetic structure and pulling force.
