Abstract
The disclosure describes spindle-shaped magnetic iron-based alloy particles containing cobalt and iron as the main ingredients in which the Co content is 1.0 to 50.0 atm % (calculated as Co) based on the total Fe in the spindle-shaped magnetic iron-based alloy particles, and which the spindle-shaped magnetic iron-based alloy particles have an average major axis diameter of 0.05 to 0.18 .mu.m, a size distribution (standard deviation/major axis diameter) of not more than 0.25, an average minor axis diameter of 0.010 to 0.020 .mu.m, an aspect ratio (major axis diameter/minor axis diameter) of 4 to 15, an X-ray crystallite size D.sub.110 of 120 to 180 .ANG., a coercive force of 1720 to 2500 Oe, a saturation magnetization of not less than 110 emu/g, and a saturation magnetization decrement percentage of not more than 17%.
