Principal Design Features
|
|
This is an alloy of nickel and iron with the chemistry controlled for magnetic properties.
|
|
Applications
|
|
Used for transformer cores, solenoid cores, and magnetic shielding. The alloy is available in 3 distinct grades, depending upon product form and intended end application. 1. Strip, Rotor Grade -- with non-directional magnetic properties. 2. Strip, Transformer Grade. 3. Bar, wire, rod and general purpose (shielding) strip.
|
|
Machinability
|
|
The alloy is similar to the austenitic (300 series) stainless steels in machining behavior. Sulfur containing cutting oils should be avoided as they may contaminate the alloy. A "Free-machining" grade is available for high production runs involving machining from bar stock.
|
|
Forming
|
|
The alloy has good ductility and can be formed by standard means.
|
|
Welding
|
|
Welding by conventional methods is appropriate for this alloy.
|
|
Heat Treatment
|
|
Not heat-treatable for strengthening. May be annealed at 2150 F in dry hydrogen for 4 hours, followed by furnace cooling at 150 F/hour to 800 F then air cool. A strain relief anneal, following cold working, may also be done at 1500 F for 1/2 hour in dry hydrogen or inert gas atmosphere.
|
|
Forging
|
|
Forging should be done at a temperature of 2150 F.
|
|
Cold Working
|
|
The alloy is readily cold worked. Deep drawing grade should be specified for that forming operation and annealed grade for general forming.
|
|
Annealing
|
|
See "Heat Treat".
|
|
Tempering
|
|
See "Heat Treat" for strain relief anneal.
|
|
Hardening
|
|
Hardens due to cold working only.
