Features

High compressibility - due to its superior compressibility, Atomet 1001 can be single pressed to 7.2g/cm3 or repressed to densities up to 7.4 g/cm3.; Extends the performance levels of P/M parts.; Provides enhanced compaction capability.; Provides higher strength, higher density P/M parts.; Hardenability - the manganese level of Atomet 1001 is precisely controlled to provide optimal heat-treated properties without sacrificing compressibility.; Improved hardness and tensile properties.; Dimensional change - Atomet 1001 can be used with existing tooling designed for conventional water-atomized powders.; No need to retool; Consistency - a stable ore base and ultra-modern processing capability, including SPC, assure lot-to-lot consistency.; Improved P/M part consistency; Purity and cleanliness - state-of-the-art clean steel practices and a proprietary powder manufacturing process produce a powder with exceptionally low levels of residuals and inclusions.; Improved mechanical and dynamic properties of powder forged parts.; Improved machinability of P/M and P/F parts.
