    Heat treat for electrical applications

    To clarify, permeability is my area of focus. I am already planning on heat treating the alloy 50 and since I didn't know of any particular heat treating for the 12L14 I was thinking of including it in the batch with the alloy 50... Unless anyone knows of a more optimal heat treatment for the...
