Thermal expansion of RCo 5 compounds (R = Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho) is investigated by X-ray diffractometry on single crystalline samples in the temperature range 5-1300 K. All compounds undergo large spontaneous magnetostrictive deformations, the volume effect re~tches 3.2 x 10 -2 at 5 K in HoCo5
