1. Sliding resistance
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet retains only approx. 20-30% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Steel thickness impact
*Thin metal sheet (e.g. computer case) drastically reduces the holding force.
3. Power loss vs temp
*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.

Other proposals
Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.
Strengths
- Their strength remains stable, and after approximately 10 years it decreases only by ~1% (theoretically),
- They have excellent resistance to weakening of magnetic properties as a result of external magnetic sources,
- A magnet with a shiny gold surface is more attractive,
- The surface of neodymium magnets generates a maximum magnetic field – this is one of their assets,
- 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...
- Thanks to the ability of accurate molding and adaptation to specialized needs, NdFeB magnets can be created in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Universal use in modern technologies – they serve a role in computer drives, electric drive systems, medical equipment, also technologically advanced constructions.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in tiny dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices
Weaknesses
- Brittleness is one of their disadvantages. Upon strong impact they can break. We recommend keeping them in a steel housing, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer a drop in power. Often, when the temperature exceeds 80°C, their power 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 advise using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, when using outdoors
- Limited possibility of producing threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is a housing - mounting mechanism.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes key in the context of child health protection. Furthermore, small components of these magnets can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets are more expensive than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which increases costs of application in large quantities
Holding force characteristics
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what affects it?
- on a plate made of structural steel, effectively closing the magnetic field
- with a thickness minimum 10 mm
- with a surface free of scratches
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at standard ambient temperature
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
- Gap between magnet and steel – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) significantly weakens the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Force direction – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Wall thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux passes through the material instead of generating force.
- Material composition – different alloys attracts identically. Alloy additives weaken the attraction effect.
- Surface finish – full contact is possible only on polished steel. Any scratches and bumps reduce the real contact area, reducing force.
- Thermal factor – high temperature weakens pulling force. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was carried out on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate decreases the lifting capacity.
Warnings
Finger safety
Protect your hands. Two powerful magnets will snap together immediately with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Thermal limits
Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet to high heat will destroy its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Metal Allergy
A percentage of the population have a hypersensitivity to nickel, which is the common plating for neodymium magnets. Prolonged contact can result in dermatitis. It is best to use protective gloves.
Handling guide
Be careful. Neodymium magnets act from a long distance and snap with huge force, often quicker than you can react.
Fragile material
Despite the nickel coating, the material is delicate and not impact-resistant. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into sharp, dangerous pieces.
Medical implants
Medical warning: Neodymium magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Stay away if you have electronic implants.
Swallowing risk
Always store magnets out of reach of children. Risk of swallowing is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are life-threatening.
Electronic devices
Data protection: Strong magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (heart implants, medical aids, timepieces).
Fire warning
Powder created during grinding of magnets is self-igniting. Avoid drilling into magnets unless you are an expert.
Threat to navigation
Be aware: neodymium magnets generate a field that disrupts precision electronics. Keep a safe distance from your mobile, device, and GPS.
