1. Sliding resistance
*Caution: On a vertical wall, the magnet holds only ~20% of its perpendicular strength.
2. Plate thickness effect
*Thin steel (e.g. computer case) severely weakens the holding force.
3. Temperature resistance
*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) = 0.44
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.
Benefits
- They do not lose strength, even during nearly ten years – the decrease in power is only ~1% (theoretically),
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by highly resistant to magnetic field loss caused by magnetic disturbances,
- A magnet with a smooth silver surface has an effective appearance,
- Magnets possess impressive magnetic induction on the outer layer,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the form) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Possibility of custom modeling and adapting to atypical needs,
- Versatile presence in high-tech industry – they are utilized in magnetic memories, brushless drives, diagnostic systems, also multitasking production systems.
- Thanks to efficiency per cm³, small magnets offer high operating force, with minimal size,
Weaknesses
- Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a special holder, which not only protects them against impacts but also increases their durability
- Neodymium magnets decrease their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures 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
- Limited possibility of creating threads in the magnet and complex forms - preferred is cover - magnetic holder.
- Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these magnets are able to complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
- Due to expensive raw materials, their price is relatively high,
Holding force characteristics
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what contributes to it?
- using a sheet made of mild steel, acting as a ideal flux conductor
- with a thickness minimum 10 mm
- with an polished touching surface
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (surface-to-surface)
- under perpendicular force direction (90-degree angle)
- in neutral thermal conditions
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Clearance – existence of any layer (rust, dirt, gap) acts as an insulator, which reduces power rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Loading method – declared lifting capacity refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (typically approx. 20-30% of maximum force).
- Steel thickness – insufficiently thick plate does not close the flux, causing part of the power to be lost into the air.
- Material composition – different alloys reacts the same. Alloy additives worsen the interaction with the magnet.
- Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the surface, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Temperature influence – high temperature weakens magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, in contrast under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Danger to the youngest
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Accidental ingestion of multiple magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a direct threat to life and necessitates urgent medical intervention.
Pacemakers
For implant holders: Strong magnetic fields affect electronics. Maintain at least 30 cm distance or request help to handle the magnets.
Impact on smartphones
An intense magnetic field disrupts the functioning of compasses in phones and navigation systems. Do not bring magnets close to a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.
Finger safety
Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in hematomas, crushing, and broken bones. Use thick gloves.
Electronic devices
Powerful magnetic fields can corrupt files on credit cards, HDDs, and other magnetic media. Stay away of min. 10 cm.
Demagnetization risk
Regular neodymium magnets (N-type) lose power when the temperature goes above 80°C. Damage is permanent.
Do not underestimate power
Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can destroy the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.
Shattering risk
Neodymium magnets are sintered ceramics, meaning they are prone to chipping. Impact of two magnets leads to them breaking into shards.
Nickel coating and allergies
Studies show that nickel (the usual finish) is a potent allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from direct skin contact or opt for coated magnets.
Flammability
Dust generated during machining of magnets is self-igniting. Do not drill into magnets without proper cooling and knowledge.
