Ancorsteel® 1000
Ancorsteel 1000 is the workhorse of our atomized powders, the material that has advanced P/M into the modern age of higher density compacts. More P/M components have Ancorsteel 1000 as their base than any other atomized powder. It has low levels of carbon and oxygen along with good compressibility. Ancorsteel 1000 provides excellent physical properties with small additions of graphite, copper, or nickel. Ancorsteel 1000 is also available with guaranteed low levels of inclusions for powder forging applications.
Why Ancorsteel 1000 series powders are preferred
- Purity—Special melt practices and select raw materials input give us consistently lower levels and better control of residual and tramp elements.
- Compressibility—Strict controls in annealing and iron powder screening result in the highest compressibility powders available.
- Green Properties—The technology of iron powder atomization and control of particle shape provide parts with uniform green density and excellent strength.
- Sintered Strength—Purity, compressibility and excellent greeen properties create higher strength components when sintered than are possible with lesser quality materials.
- Quality—Uniform, high volume production utilizing state-of-the-art SPC techniques at each processing stage assures the highest standards of consistency.
