1. Vertical hold
*Note: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains merely approx. 20-30% of its max power.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) drastically reduces the holding force.
3. Thermal stability
*For standard magnets, 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.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of rare earth magnets.
Pros
- They do not lose power, even after approximately ten years – the reduction in strength is only ~1% (based on measurements),
- They feature excellent resistance to magnetic field loss as a result of opposing magnetic fields,
- Thanks to the smooth finish, the surface of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver gives an modern appearance,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, which affects their effectiveness,
- Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their shape) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Possibility of precise shaping as well as modifying to specific requirements,
- Fundamental importance in modern industrial fields – they find application in mass storage devices, drive modules, medical equipment, and complex engineering applications.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in tiny dimensions, which allows their use in compact constructions
Disadvantages
- To avoid cracks upon strong impacts, we recommend using special steel housings. Such a solution secures the magnet and simultaneously improves its durability.
- Neodymium magnets decrease their strength under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- We suggest cover - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complex forms.
- Health risk resulting from small fragments of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, tiny parts of these magnets can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which can limit application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Highest magnetic holding force – what it depends on?
- on a base made of structural steel, optimally conducting the magnetic field
- with a thickness minimum 10 mm
- characterized by lack of roughness
- with zero gap (without coatings)
- during detachment in a direction vertical to the mounting surface
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Gap between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) drastically reduces the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Plate thickness – insufficiently thick steel causes magnetic saturation, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
- Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels decrease magnetic properties and lifting capacity.
- Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the plate, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness creates an air distance.
- Temperature – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of force. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of suitable thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. In addition, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Medical interference
Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.
Physical harm
Danger of trauma: The attraction force is so immense that it can cause blood blisters, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
Allergy Warning
Certain individuals experience a contact allergy to nickel, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Prolonged contact can result in an allergic reaction. We suggest use protective gloves.
GPS and phone interference
Navigation devices and smartphones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can ruin the sensors in your phone.
Powerful field
Be careful. Neodymium magnets attract from a distance and snap with huge force, often faster than you can move away.
Fire risk
Powder produced during grinding of magnets is combustible. Avoid drilling into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
Beware of splinters
Despite metallic appearance, the material is delicate and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.
No play value
Always keep magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the effects of magnets clamping inside the body are life-threatening.
Keep away from computers
Avoid bringing magnets near a wallet, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
Operating temperature
Avoid heat. Neodymium magnets are sensitive to heat. If you require operation above 80°C, ask us about special high-temperature series (H, SH, UH).
