Magnetically insensitive, highly hard and constant-modulus alloy, and its production method, as well as hair spring, mechanical driving apparatus and watch and clock

[Task] A constant-modulus alloy, which has a low saturation magnetic flux density to provide weakly magnetic properties, a high Young's modulus, a low temperature coefficient of Young's modulus, and high hardness, is provided. A hairspring, a mechanical driving apparatus and a watch and clock, in which the alloy is used, are provided.[Means for Solution]The alloy consists essentially of, by atomic weight ratio, 20 to 40% Co and 7 to 22% Ni, with the total of Co and Ni being 42.0 to 49.5%, 5 to 13% Cr and 1 to 6% Mo, with the total of Cr and Mo being 13.5 to 16.0%, and with the balance being essentially Fe (with the proviso that Fe is present in an amount of 37% or more) and inevitable impurities. The alloy is heated to a temperature of 1100 degrees C. or higher and lower than the melting point, followed by cooling. The alloy is subsequently subjected to repeated wiredrawing and intermediate annealing at 800 to 950 degrees C., thereby forming a wire at a working ratio of 90% or more. The resultant wire has a fiber structure having a <111> fiber axis. The wire is subsequently cold rolled at a rolling reduction of 20% or more, thereby obtaining a sheet, followed by heating the sheet at a temperature of 580 to 700 degrees C. The obtained magnetically insensitive, highly hard, constant modulus alloy has a {110}<111> texture. 2500 to 3500 G of saturation flux density, (−5˜+5)×10−5 degrees C−1 of temperature coefficient of Young's modulus as measured at 0 to 40 degrees C., and 350 to 550 of Vickers hardness
