Magnetic properties
Guaranteed values required by the standard, by product form and size band, measured on specimens after the final magnetic anneal.
| Form | Condition and size band | μ4mT ≥ | μ10mT ≥ | μmax ≥ | Hc ≤ (A/m) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bar, wire, plate and coil | After the final magnetic anneal, either size band (d >12.7 mm or d ≤12.7 mm) | 35000 | 42000 | 175000 | 2 |
| Sheet and strip | After final magnetic heat treatment, t 1.52–4.75 mm | 35000 | 42000 | 200000 | 2 |
| Sheet and strip | After final magnetic heat treatment, t: 0.51<d<1.52 mm | 55000 | 70000 | 250000 | 1.2 |
The magnetic anneal is normally agreed between supplier and purchaser and varies with size; state the form, size band and the magnetic properties to be tested on the order.
Mechanical minima by form
Guaranteed values differ by form, size and delivery condition; quotations confirm the specification, form, size and condition.
