CarTech Chrome Core 13-FM alloy is a controlled chemistry, ferritic 13% chromium alloy which is a candidate for use in magnetic components where corrosion resistance superior to pure iron, low carbon steel and silicon-iron alloys is desired without the substantial decrease in saturation induction associated with the 18% Cr ferritic stainless steels.

Applications:
Applications could include electromechanical devices requiring some degree of corrosion resistance, either in service or for extended shelf life without the need for protective coatings. CarTech Chrome Core alloys have been considered for use in automotive components such as fuel injectors, fuel pump motor laminations and ABS solenoids.
