Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides detailed information about MuMETAL®, a magnetic shielding alloy offered by Magnetic Shield Corporation. It outlines the specifications, applications, and properties of MuMETAL® and other related alloys such as Co-NETIC® and NETIC®.
Specifications: MuMETAL® is primarily used in low-intensity magnetic fields requiring high attenuation and permeability. It is available in various forms, including stress annealed sheet stock and fully annealed foil. The alloy conforms to ASTM A-753, Alloy 4, and MIL N-14411C, Composition 1 standards.
Applications: MuMETAL® is used to fabricate magnetic shields like enclosures and Zero Gauss Chambers, which create low-field environments for research and compliance testing. These chambers are effective due to their layered design, which significantly attenuates external magnetic fields.
Properties: The document details the mechanical and magnetic properties of MuMETAL®, including its yield strength, density, tensile strength, and permeability. The alloy's high nickel content provides corrosion resistance, and it is often used without additional finishing.
Fabrication and Finishing: MuMETAL® requires final annealing after fabrication to enhance its shielding efficiency. The alloy can be processed through various manufacturing techniques, including waterjet cutting, laser welding, and chemical etching.
Recommendations: For optimal performance, it is recommended to use MuMETAL® in applications specified by Magnetic Shield Corporation. The document warns against misrepresentation by other companies and emphasizes the importance of specifying MuMETAL® for consistent results.
Contact Information: For orders and technical support, contact Magnetic Shield Corporation via their website or email. They offer a range of services to assist with custom shield fabrication and finishing.

MUMETAL® ZERO GAUSS CHAMBERS μ (Mu) – The 12th letter of the Greek alphabet, is used in physics & engineering formulae to represent permeability, the measure of a material’s ability to support the formation, or absorption, of a magnetic field within itself. In other words, permeability (μ) is a value representing the degree of magnetization obtained in a material from an externally applied H-field. Because our alloy provides maximum permeability in magnetic shielding, it has been permanently named after the Greek letter μ (Mu). For decades, scientists, engineers, metal suppliers and fabricators...
