Ngokubanzi, intsimbi engagqwaliyo ye-austenitic ayinayo imagnetism. Kodwa i-martensite kunye ne-ferrite zinemagnetism. Nangona kunjalo, i-austenitic nayo inokuba yimagnethi. Izizathu zezi zilandelayo:

Xa iqina, i-magnetism yenxalenye inokuhamba ngenxa yesizathu esithile sokunyibilikisa; thatha umzekelo, i-3 ukuya kwi-8% eseleyo yinto eqhelekileyo, ngoko ke i-austenite kufuneka ibe yeyokungabikho kwemagnetism okanye i-weak magnetism.

Intsimbi engagqwaliyo yase-Austenitic ayinamandla ombane, kodwa xa icandelo le-γ livelisa inqanaba le-martensite, amandla ombane aya kuvelisa emva kokuqina okubandayo. Unyango lobushushu lungasetyenziselwa ukususa olu lwakhiwo lwe-martensite nokubuyisela amandla ayo ombane angengomandla ombane.
