1. Wall mount (shear)
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically limits the holding force.
3. Heat tolerance
*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) = 0.89
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.

Other products
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Pros
- They retain magnetic properties for nearly ten years – the drop is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- Neodymium magnets remain exceptionally resistant to magnetic field loss caused by external magnetic fields,
- In other words, due to the aesthetic surface of nickel, the element becomes visually attractive,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet is impressive,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and can function (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- In view of the possibility of precise forming and customization to specialized requirements, neodymium magnets can be manufactured in a variety of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
- Key role in modern technologies – they are commonly used in computer drives, electromotive mechanisms, advanced medical instruments, as well as other advanced devices.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications
Limitations
- To avoid cracks under impact, we suggest using special steel holders. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets experience a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their strength decreases (depending on the size, as well as shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, when using outdoors
- We suggest cover - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complicated shapes.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to complex production process, their price exceeds standard values,
Holding force characteristics
Best holding force of the magnet in ideal parameters – what affects it?
- using a plate made of high-permeability steel, serving as a circuit closing element
- possessing a massiveness of at least 10 mm to ensure full flux closure
- with an ideally smooth touching surface
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
- at temperature room level
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Gap between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) drastically reduces the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Loading method – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When slipping, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Steel thickness – too thin steel causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the power to be lost into the air.
- Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy admixtures lower magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Surface condition – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases field saturation. Rough surfaces reduce efficiency.
- Temperature – heating the magnet causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity was assessed using a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as fivefold. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Magnets are brittle
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are very brittle. Clashing of two magnets leads to them shattering into shards.
Medical implants
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Keep minimum 30 cm distance or ask another person to work with the magnets.
Allergy Warning
Medical facts indicate that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, avoid direct skin contact and choose coated magnets.
Powerful field
Exercise caution. Rare earth magnets act from a distance and snap with massive power, often quicker than you can react.
Keep away from children
Strictly keep magnets away from children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the consequences of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Fire warning
Powder produced during machining of magnets is flammable. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Thermal limits
Control the heat. Heating the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its properties and pulling force.
Safe distance
Data protection: Strong magnets can damage data carriers and delicate electronics (pacemakers, medical aids, timepieces).
Impact on smartphones
Navigation devices and mobile phones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Close proximity with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.
Pinching danger
Mind your fingers. Two powerful magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, destroying everything in their path. Be careful!
