`
`For More Ecient Audio Speakers
`As the global leader in ferrouid products, Ferrotec has been supplying ferrouid to audio speaker
`manufacturers since the early 1970s. Ferrotec’s APG Series audio ferrouid enables audio speakers to
`function more eciently, with improved audio response and better power handling. For audio speaker
`manufacturers, Ferrotec ferrouid also provides signicantly better speaker manufacturability for
`improved quality and higher manufacturing yields.
`Audio ferrouids are based on two classes of carrier liquid: synthetic hydrocarbons and esters. Both oils
`possess very low volatility and high thermal stability. The choice of uid is dictated by the environmental
`considerations of the application (e.g. humidity, adhesives, contact with water, solvent vapors and reactive
`gases) combined with the best balance of magnetization and viscosity values to optimize the acoustical
`performance.
`Ferrotec’s highly rened manufacturing process, combined with a long term quality assurance program is
`the key to its repeatable, reproducible product quality. Our ferrouid manufacturing facility in Japan is both
`ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certied.
`
`By varying the quantity of magnetic material in a ferrouid, and by using different carrier liquids, it can be
`tailored to meet a variety of needs. The saturation magnetization (the maximum value of the magnetic
`moment per unit volume when all the domains are aligned) is determined by the nature of the suspended
`magnetic material and by the volumetric loading of the material. The physical and chemical properties
`such as density and viscosity correspond closely to those of the carrier liquid.

`Audio Retrot Kits
`Ferrotec also offers Audio Retrot Kits for loudspeaker reconditioning and retrotting. These kits come with pre-
`measured packets of ferrouid which are used to replace the old uid in speaker air gaps when replacing diaphragm
`and coil assemblies. Many speaker manufacturers offer these kits with their diaphragm and coil replacement
