1. Sliding resistance
*Note: On a vertical surface, the magnet retains only ~20% of its max power.
2. Steel saturation
*Thin steel (e.g. 0.5mm PC case) severely limits 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.

Advantages and disadvantages of rare earth magnets.
Benefits
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after 10 years the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- They are noted for resistance to demagnetization induced by external disturbances,
- Thanks to the shiny finish, the coating of nickel, gold-plated, or silver gives an visually attractive appearance,
- They are known for high magnetic induction at the operating surface, making them more effective,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by extremely high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- Considering the possibility of precise shaping and adaptation to individualized solutions, neodymium magnets can be produced in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
- Significant place in innovative solutions – they are commonly used in mass storage devices, electric motors, medical devices, and other advanced devices.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, occupying minimum space,
Weaknesses
- At strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage and increases the magnet's durability.
- When exposed to high temperature, neodymium magnets suffer 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
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation and corrosion.
- Due to limitations in realizing threads and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using cover - magnetic mechanism.
- Possible danger resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices can disrupt the diagnostic process medical after entering the body.
- Due to neodymium price, their price is relatively high,
Lifting parameters
Highest magnetic holding force – what affects it?
- using a sheet made of mild steel, acting as a circuit closing element
- whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
- with a surface cleaned and smooth
- with total lack of distance (no coatings)
- for force acting at a right angle (in the magnet axis)
- at room temperature
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Space between surfaces – every millimeter of distance (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) drastically reduces the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Direction of force – highest force is obtained only during pulling at a 90° angle. The force required to slide of the magnet along the surface is standardly many times smaller (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – the thinner the sheet, the weaker the hold. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of generating force.
- Material composition – not every steel attracts identically. High carbon content worsen the attraction effect.
- Surface condition – smooth surfaces guarantee perfect abutment, which increases field saturation. Uneven metal reduce efficiency.
- Operating temperature – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they are weaker, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).
Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
Safety rules for work with neodymium magnets
Caution required
Handle magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can shock even professionals. Stay alert and do not underestimate their force.
Magnetic interference
Remember: neodymium magnets produce a field that disrupts precision electronics. Maintain a separation from your mobile, tablet, and navigation systems.
Operating temperature
Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. Damage is permanent.
Adults only
Absolutely keep magnets out of reach of children. Ingestion danger is significant, and the effects of magnets connecting inside the body are life-threatening.
Magnetic media
Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, laptop, or screen. The magnetic field can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.
Life threat
Individuals with a ICD have to keep an absolute distance from magnets. The magnetism can interfere with the operation of the life-saving device.
Do not drill into magnets
Combustion risk: Neodymium dust is explosive. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Bodily injuries
Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can cause hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Use thick gloves.
Skin irritation risks
Studies show that the nickel plating (standard magnet coating) is a common allergen. If you have an allergy, avoid direct skin contact and opt for encased magnets.
Protective goggles
Despite the nickel coating, neodymium is delicate and not impact-resistant. Do not hit, as the magnet may crumble into sharp, dangerous pieces.
