1. Shear force
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Efficiency vs thickness
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For standard magnets, the critical limit is 80°C.
4. Demagnetization curve and operating point (B-H)
chart generated for the permeance coefficient Pc (Permeance Coefficient) = 0.89
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 neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They do not lose magnetism, even during around ten years – the drop in power is only ~1% (according to tests),
- Neodymium magnets are remarkably resistant to loss of magnetic properties caused by external magnetic fields,
- By using a reflective layer of nickel, the element has an modern look,
- Magnets exhibit extremely high magnetic induction on the active area,
- Through (adequate) combination of ingredients, they can achieve high thermal resistance, allowing for action at temperatures approaching 230°C and above...
- Thanks to versatility in constructing and the capacity to customize to complex applications,
- Versatile presence in modern technologies – they are commonly used in magnetic memories, electromotive mechanisms, medical devices, and modern systems.
- Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Disadvantages
- At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in steel cases. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their strength at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- Magnets exposed to a humid environment can rust. Therefore during using outdoors, we recommend using water-impermeable magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture
- Limited possibility of creating nuts in the magnet and complicated forms - recommended is a housing - magnet mounting.
- Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Furthermore, small components of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Pull force analysis
Maximum lifting capacity of the magnet – what it depends on?
- using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, serving as a circuit closing element
- possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to avoid saturation
- with an ideally smooth contact surface
- under conditions of no distance (metal-to-metal)
- for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at ambient temperature room level
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
- Gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), because even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a reduction in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Part of the magnetic field passes through the material instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
- Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal factor – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, in contrast under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Warnings
Beware of splinters
NdFeB magnets are ceramic materials, which means they are fragile like glass. Impact of two magnets leads to them shattering into small pieces.
Medical implants
Life threat: Neodymium magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.
Heat sensitivity
Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will destroy its properties and pulling force.
Bodily injuries
Large magnets can smash fingers instantly. Do not put your hand between two attracting surfaces.
Danger to the youngest
Only for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to serious injuries. Store away from kids and pets.
Dust is flammable
Dust produced during machining of magnets is combustible. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Handling guide
Handle magnets consciously. Their huge power can shock even experienced users. Be vigilant and respect their force.
Safe distance
Very strong magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, hard drives, and other magnetic media. Maintain a gap of at least 10 cm.
Metal Allergy
Nickel alert: The nickel-copper-nickel coating consists of nickel. If redness occurs, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.
Magnetic interference
Be aware: rare earth magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your phone, tablet, and navigation systems.
