Abstract The microstructural difference between thermal and stress-induced ε martensite was investigated in iron-based shape memory alloy. The thermal εmartensite plates were found to be randomly distributed with several variants, causing no shape change during cooling and heating. But stress-induced ε plates have almost single variant in one grain. Pole figure analysis showed that ε plates whose [1.63 0 1] ε direction is paralell to tensile stress are preferably formed on the deformation. The [1.63 0 1] εdirection was proved to be the most expandable one in fcc→hcp transformation by [112] γ shear deformation.
