1. Vertical hold
*Caution: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*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) = 0.27
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.

Pros as well as cons of neodymium magnets.
Strengths
- They retain attractive force for almost ten years – the drop is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- Neodymium magnets are distinguished by extremely resistant to magnetic field loss caused by magnetic disturbances,
- Thanks to the smooth finish, the layer of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver-plated gives an professional appearance,
- Magnets possess huge magnetic induction on the outer layer,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Possibility of precise shaping and adapting to specific requirements,
- Fundamental importance in modern technologies – they are used in mass storage devices, brushless drives, advanced medical instruments, and industrial machines.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we suggest using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously increases its durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in force. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power decreases (depending on the size and shape of the magnet). For those who need magnets for extreme conditions, we offer [AH] versions withstanding up to 230°C
- They oxidize in a humid environment. For use outdoors we advise using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complex shapes in magnets, we propose using cover - magnetic mount.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Pull force analysis
Highest magnetic holding force – what it depends on?
- using a sheet made of high-permeability steel, acting as a circuit closing element
- with a cross-section of at least 10 mm
- characterized by smoothness
- without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- in neutral thermal conditions
Impact of factors on magnetic holding capacity in practice
- Air gap (betwixt the magnet and the plate), since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) leads to a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or debris).
- Force direction – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of generating force.
- Material type – the best choice is pure iron steel. Stainless steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Base smoothness – the smoother and more polished the plate, the better the adhesion and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
- Temperature influence – hot environment reduces pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, however under attempts to slide the magnet the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the load capacity.
Warnings
Keep away from electronics
GPS units and mobile phones are highly susceptible to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can permanently damage the sensors in your phone.
Caution required
Handle with care. Neodymium magnets act from a distance and connect with massive power, often quicker than you can move away.
Swallowing risk
Strictly store magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is high, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are very dangerous.
Pinching danger
Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will join instantly with a force of massive weight, destroying anything in their path. Exercise extreme caution!
Thermal limits
Avoid heat. NdFeB magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require resistance above 80°C, look for special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
Cards and drives
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetism can irreversibly ruin these devices and erase data from cards.
Health Danger
Patients with a ICD must maintain an safe separation from magnets. The magnetic field can stop the operation of the life-saving device.
Metal Allergy
Studies show that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, prevent direct skin contact and opt for encased magnets.
Protective goggles
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Fire warning
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Do not process magnets without safety gear as this may cause fire.
