AMETEK SMP launches Innovative High Green Strength Stainless Steel Powders for Powder Metallurgy

Tuesday, June 11, 2024

AMETEK Specialty Metal Products (SMP) is pleased to announce the launch of its new High Green Strength Stainless Steel Powders, ideal for use in Powder Metallurgy for a wide range of automotive and industrial pressed and sintered parts. 

The new High Green Strength Powders consistently provide 50% or greater improvement in green strength in 300 and 400 series stainless steel grades relative to powders mixed with standard EBS wax. This enhancement comes with minimal impact to sintered density and dimensional change, and other properties.

Manufactured using advanced water atomization technology, the High Green Strength Powders represent a significant advancement in powder metallurgy. By reducing part damage during die ejection and part transfer, these powders lead to more efficient processing and dramatically lower manufacturing costs.

AMETEK SMP invites industry professionals to learn more about these advanced High Green Strength Powders at Booth 402 during PowderMet, the premier International Conference on Powder Metallurgy & Particulate Materials, taking place from June 16 to 19, 2024 in Pittsburgh, PA, USA.
