The magnetic properties of TiFe 2 and ZrFe 2 are investigated within their homogeneity range in dependence on the concentration. TiFe 2 is antiferromagnetic at titanium excess and at stoichiometric composition and it is ferromagnetic at iron excess. ZrFe 2 is ferromagnetic throughout the whole homogeneity range. The dependences of the Curie temperatures and of the saturation magnetizations on the concentration are determined. By the present studies the discrepancies of the magnetic data of ZrFe 2 and TiFe 2 existing in the literature can be attributed to the existence of a homogeneity range.
