Abstract

Abstract An amorphous alloy for a magnetic head has a composition which may be represented as Co100-T-X-Y-ZReTHfXBYSiZ, where T, X, Y and Z satisfy the conditions of 0.2</=T</=1.5, 6</=X</=15, 3</=Y</=8 and 0</=Z</=0.01. Such an amorphous alloy has a high crystallization temperature, said temperature being higher than 500 DEG C., and does not lower the effective magnetic permeability, even if gradual cooling is performed after heat treatment. A magnetic head having a core consisting of such an amorphous alloy is not deteriorated in its magnetic properties, even if the head is made by glass bonding.
