Ancorloy is the material designation given to a new product line based on the use of a new Engineered Bonding Technology for high performance applications. Currently there are two products, Ancorloy 2 and Ancorloy 4 in this family. The composition of these binder-treated premixed materials meets the chemical composition limits for the MPIF Material Standard 35 for Material Designations FD-02XX and FD-04XX respectively. The combined carbon level of the finished sintered part can be adjusted through a graphite addition in the premix. Equivalent tensile properties can be achieved with lower graphite additions for the Ancorloy Grades in comparison with the Distaloy 4600A and Distaloy 4800A materials.
