P6

P6 is a ductile, cobalt base precipitation hardened alloy, similar to Vicalloy, which combines the advantages of high hysteresis loss and low magnetizing force into one material. It is primarily used in the aerospace and consumer industries with its key properties including:

  • Ductility
  • Highest efficiency of any known material
  • High hysteresis loss
  • Low magnetizing force

Setting the Standard for Highest Efficiency 

These alloys can provide versatile alternatives to higher coercivity materials which, although they provide the magnetic properties required for countless applications, are difficult to fabricate because of their brittleness. Also, some of the higher coercivity materials may exhibit poor corrosion resistance and less than desirable temperature stability.
