Abstract
A magnetic recording medium substrate is provided in which a NiP type plating film is formed on a surface of an aluminum alloy substrate that includes Si in a range of 9.5 mass % or more and 11.0 mass % or less, Mn in a rage of 0.45 mass % or more and 0.90 mass % or less, Zn in a range of 0.32 mass % or more and 0.38 mass % or less, Sr in a range of 0.01 mass % or more and 0.05 mass % or less. In the alloy structure of the aluminum alloy substrate, an average particle diameter of Si particles is 2 μm or less, the film thickness of the NiP type plating film is 7 μm or more. An outer diameter of the magnetic recording medium substrate is 53 mm or more, the thickness is 0.9 mm or less, and the Young's modulus is 79 GPa or more.
