Iron-Copper & Copper Steel Powder Metal Materials

Line

At Atlas Pressed Metals, we offer iron-copper and copper-steel materials engineered to excel in medium strength structural applications. Our materials typically feature a copper content of 2%, providing an optimal balance of strength and performance. 

When secondary machining is required, our materials can be specified with combined carbon contents of less than 0.5%, ensuring precision to meet your project's unique demands. 

Furthermore, the material in this category also can be heat-treated to increase strength and wear resistance.

For applications requiring additional wear resistance or when heat treatment may not be practical, materials with higher copper content can help. Lower density parts can be oil impregnated for self-lubrication in use.

What is Iron-Copper & Copper Steel Sintered Metal?

Line

Iron-Copper Sintered Metal:

Iron-Copper sintered metal is a composite material created by combining iron and copper powders through the sintering process. The result is a material with excellent mechanical properties, combining the strength and durability of iron with the conductivity of copper. It is widely used in various applications where these attributes are essential, bearings, bushings, and more.

Copper Steel Sintered Metal:
 
Copper-Steel sintered metal is a composite material that blends the benefits of both copper and steel. The sintering process bonds copper and steel powders at high temperatures, creating a material with exceptional wear resistance, high thermal conductivity, and improved strength. This makes it an ideal choice for components subjected to demanding conditions, such as gears, bushings, and structural elements in various industries.
