1. Sliding resistance
*Warning: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains just a fraction of its nominal pull.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) significantly limits the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*For N38 grade, the safety limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.59
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 and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Pros
- They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over nearly ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
- They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss due to external magnetic sources,
- Thanks to the elegant 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 a distinguishing feature,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can work (depending on the shape) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Thanks to modularity in constructing and the capacity to modify to client solutions,
- Significant place in modern technologies – they find application in hard drives, brushless drives, medical equipment, also multitasking production systems.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Cons
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution protects the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- 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 during using outdoors, we suggest using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
- Due to limitations in creating threads and complicated forms in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic mechanism.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that small elements of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets is economically unviable,
Lifting parameters
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what contributes to it?
- using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, acting as a magnetic yoke
- with a thickness no less than 10 mm
- with an polished touching surface
- under conditions of gap-free contact (surface-to-surface)
- under axial force direction (90-degree angle)
- at temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Practical lifting capacity: influencing factors
- Distance – the presence of any layer (paint, tape, gap) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces capacity steeply (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Load vector – maximum parameter is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Plate thickness – too thin plate does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
- Metal type – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives weaken the attraction effect.
- Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which improves force. Uneven metal weaken the grip.
- Heat – neodymium magnets have a sensitivity to temperature. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity was assessed by applying a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. Moreover, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the holding force.
Warnings
Maximum temperature
Watch the temperature. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and strength.
Safe operation
Handle with care. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and connect with huge force, often faster than you can move away.
Choking Hazard
Adult use only. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing intestinal necrosis. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
Bodily injuries
Big blocks can smash fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not put your hand between two strong magnets.
Eye protection
Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into hazardous fragments.
Skin irritation risks
Allergy Notice: The nickel-copper-nickel coating contains nickel. If redness occurs, cease working with magnets and wear gloves.
Do not drill into magnets
Dust created during cutting of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Protect data
Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, computer, or TV. The magnetism can destroy these devices and erase data from cards.
Keep away from electronics
Navigation devices and smartphones are extremely susceptible to magnetism. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can ruin the internal compass in your phone.
Health Danger
Warning for patients: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Keep at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
