Iron-Based Powder

Iron-based powders are the most common powder metallurgy material family. They provide good strength, wear resistance and cost efficiency for gears, structural parts and many components.

Material overview

Iron-based powder metallurgy is widely used for structural parts, gears and sintered components. The material is typically blended with alloying elements such as copper, nickel or carbon to achieve required strength and hardness. Because the process is near-net-shape, iron-based PM parts are economical in high volumes.

Typical applications

  • Sintered gears
  • Structural parts
  • Lock mechanisms
  • Automotive components
