Ngokuvamile, insimbi engagqwali ye-austenitic ayinayo i-magnetism. Kodwa i-martensite ne-ferrite zine-magnetism. Kodwa-ke, i-austenitic nayo ingaba ne-magnetic. Izizathu yilezi ezilandelayo:

Uma iqina, ingxenye yamagnetism ingase ihambe ngenxa yesizathu esithile sokuncibilikisa; thatha u-3-4 isibonelo, okusele okungu-3 kuya ku-8% kuyinto evamile, ngakho-ke i-austenite kufanele ibe ngeyokungewona amandla kazibuthe noma amandla kazibuthe abuthakathaka.

Insimbi engagqwali yase-Austenitic ayisebenzi kumagnethi, kodwa lapho ingxenye yesigaba se-γ ikhiqiza ibe yisigaba se-martensite, i-magnetism izovela ngemva kokuqina okubandayo. Ukwelashwa ngokushisa kungasetshenziswa ukususa lesi sakhiwo se-martensite nokubuyisela i-non-magnetism yayo.
