| Ferritic stainless steel P/M technology is being specified by automotive engineers as comsumers demand longer term performance and reliability. Good atmospheric and saline corrosion resistance, hot oxidation resistance and elevated temperature yield strength, at the most economical costs, are the reasons for specifying 400 series automotive components.
Automotive components requiring 400 series powders include rear view mirror mounts, sensor rings, exhaust flanges, exhaust support brackets, and seals.
The P/M method for economically manufacturing 400 series automotive parts requires low-carbon, highly compressible stainless steel powders. These powders must be highly engineered to meet the P/M industry's molding specifications.
AMETEK Specialty Metal Products is a major world-class manufacturer of stainless steel powders. As a recognized P/M industry leader, AMETEK utilizes the most advanced powder manufacturing methods.
