Stainless Steel
| GRADE | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | APPLICATIONS |
|---|---|---|---|
| SS-303 N1 SS-304 N1 SS-316 N1 (6.5-6.8g/cc) |
Austenitic | ‘Low-temperature’ sintered in a nitrogen atmosphere to provide a nitrogen-induced wear surface, good strength, and lower ductility | Pump components, threaded marine components, non-magnetic housings |
| SS-303 N2 SS-304 N2 SS-316 N2 (6.6-7.0g/cc) |
Austenitic | ‘High-temperature’ sintered in a nitrogen atmosphere to provide a nitrogen induced wear surface, high strength, and improved ductility | Pump components, threaded marine components, non-magnetic housings, all requiring improved physical properties |
| SS-303L SS-304L SS-316L (6.8-7.1g/cc) |
Austenitic | ‘High-temperature’ sintered in either partial vacuum or a hydrogen atmosphere to improve the ductility and corrosion resistance | Food service equipment, pump components, marine components, and non-magnetic housings |
| Ultimet 16 (7.2g/cc to 7.5g/cc) |
Duplex | ‘High-temperature’ sintered in a hydrogen atmosphere significantly improving the ductility and corrosion resistance | Hardware, locks, fittings, flanges, pump components, and housings |
| SS-409L SS-409CB SS-410L SS-430L SS-434L 6.9 to 7.3g/cc |
Ferritic | ‘High-temperature’ sintered in a hydrogen atmosphere, densities above 7.2 g/cc optimize the welding characteristics and magnetic properties | Magnetic probes and sensors, armatures, and pole pieces requiring protection from atmospheric corrosion and general oxidation |
| SS-410N2 SS-430N2 SS-434N2 6.9 to 7.3g/cc |
Ferritic | ‘High-temperature’ sintered in a nitrogen atmosphere, slightly higher strength than ‘L’ series with reduced corrosion resistance and magnetic response | Magnetic probes and sensors, armatures, and pole pieces requiring protection from atmospheric corrosion and general oxidation |
| SS-410HT SS-420HT SS-440HT 6.6 to 7.2g/cc |
Martensitic | ‘High-temperature’ sintered in a hydrogen atmosphere increasing hardness and strength over other stainless steels | Wear plates, fuel injection nozzles, and cutting instruments |
Soft Magnetic Alloys
Soft Magnetic Alloys are ferromagnetic materials that are easily magnetized and de-magnetized. To provide optimal magnetic performance, these alloys possess very low levels of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. They rely on various additions of phosphorus, nickel, silicon, or cobalt to optimize permeability, coercive force, or induction.
| GRADE | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | APPLICATIONS |
|---|---|---|---|
| F-0000 | Iron | Provides a relatively cost effective solution for high magnetic output, with lower strength and hardness | Pole pieces, sensor probes, and solenoid end caps |
| FY-4500 FY-8000 (6.8 to 7.4 g/cc) |
Phosphorous-Iron | Provides slightly higher magnetic output, increased permeability, and lower coercive force than pure iron | Tone wheels, pole pieces, sensor probes, and solenoid components |
| FS-0300 (6.8 to 7.4g/cc) |
Silicon-Iron | Provides magnetic output similar to phosphorous-iron alloys with lower coercive force and higher permeability | Solenoid switches, armatures, pole pieces, and relays that require medium electrical resistivity, high initial permeability, and low hysteresis loss |
| FN-5000 (7.0 to 7.8g/cc) |
Nickel-Iron | Provides exceptional permeability and extremely low coercive force with slightly reduced magnetic output | Pole pieces, cores, and relays for use with low magnetizing forces |
| SS-410L SS-430L SS-434L |
Ferritic | Provides corrosion resistance, but increases the coercive force and decreases the permeability and magnetic output compared to iron | Magnetic probes, sensors, armatures, and pole pieces that require some resistance to corrosion |
Sinter Hardened Alloys
| GRADE | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | APPLICATIONS |
|---|---|---|---|
| FLC 4608 (6.8 to 7.1 g/cc) |
Martensitic | Provides excellent hardness and good strength, but with low ductility | Gears, plungers, and other high wear components |
Tool Steels
| GRADE | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | APPLICATIONS |
|---|---|---|---|
| M2 (6.6 – 6.9g/cc) |
Molybdenum Tool Steel | The martensitic matrix has a homogenous, fine carbide distribution that provides exceptional wear resistance | Wear rings, plungers, and seals |
