Alloy 79 The Ultimate Soft Magnetic Solution for Precision Electronics and Shielding

Mar 07,2025

Alloy 79 (Ni79Fe, a 79% nickel-21% iron soft magnetic alloy) is widely used in various fields requiring high magnetic permeability and low coercivity. Its primary applications include:

Precision Electronics & Magnetic Components

  • Transformer cores (high-frequency and low-loss transformers)
  • Electromagnetic shielding (MRI equipment, avionics, precision instruments)
  • Magnetic amplifiers (signal processing and power control)
  • Relays and electromagnetic switches (reducing hysteresis losses)

Sensors & Measurement Devices

  • Magnetic sensors (Hall sensors, fluxgate sensors, magnetoresistive sensors)
  • Current transformers (improving accuracy in power monitoring systems)
  • Gyroscopes and inertial navigation systems (aerospace and defense applications)

Aerospace & Defense

  • Military electromagnetic shielding and magnetic detection devices (radars, communication systems, submarine magnetic detection)
  • Magnetic field compensation systems (reducing interference in satellites and navigation systems)

Medical & Scientific Research

  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shielding and components
  • High-precision laboratory shielding (nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and superconducting experiments)

Communication & Wireless Technology

  • RF and microwave magnetic components (filters, antennas, and impedance matching)
  • High-frequency pulse transformers and switch-mode power supplies (SMPS)
