FeCrCo

PERMANENT MAGNETS

FeCrCo (cobalt chrome iron)

Permanent Magnets

Iron Cobalt Chromium magnets have magnetic properties similar to AlNiCo magnets and at the same time they contain about half of Cobalt in their chemical composition, therefore cheaper. Being a very workable type of magnetic alloy, Cobalt Chrome Iron magnets are used for their extreme ductility. They can be worked in very complicated shapes with precise tolerances, they can be extruded in thin wire up to 0.1mm. , in tubes, in bars, in tapes. The operating temperature can reach 400 ° C.

FeCrCo magnets are particularly suitable for the production of elements with exact dimensions and complicated shapes. Like threads, bars, ribbons, tubes, etc. (Small, thin, with stripes).

GOOD MAGNETIC
FEATURES

Having lower costs and better magnetic properties than Alnico, it is a valid alternative in many fields of application.

EXCEPTIONAL PLASTICITY
AND STURDINESS

The particular physical and mechanical characteristics mean that this type of magnet is used in particular fields of application.

LOWER COBALT
CONTENT

50% less Cobalt compared to Alnico magnets greatly reduces the cost while guaranteeing the same application properties

DIMENSIONAL
PRECISION

They can be made as semi-hard magnetic alloys, particularly suitable for small elements with accurate dimensions and complicated shapes.
