Engineering Expertise
Lean on our deep understanding of the powder metallurgy (PM) process to get the best results within your budget. As a true manufacturing partner, we’ll explain how your chosen material will impact price, performance, and the overall assembly.

Variety & Availability
Different parts, products, and industries call for different solutions. Atlas’ vast selection of powder metal materials can optimize your new or existing PM or non-PM part for:
- Strength
- Durability
- Magnetic Response
- Cost Reduction
We maintain a commitment to a 100% on-time delivery rate thanks to our partnerships with top powder suppliers.

Materials R&D
Our advanced in-house metallurgical lab keeps you ahead of the competition with cutting-edge technology.
There remains a vast, untapped potential in sintered metals. Our materials team offers extensive testing and development of high-performance alloys.
Explore Our Powder Metal Materials
Stainless Steel Materials
Stainless steel powder metal parts bring a unique blend of strength, durability, and appearance.
- 300 Series Alloy – High physical & corrosion resistance.
- 400 Series Alloy – Great magnetic properties & response to heat treatment.
Iron & Soft Magnetic Materials
Ferritic powders excel in DC electric applications where magnetic performance is paramount. Our pure iron and iron-phosphorus materials stand out for their structural integrity.
- Iron– Unalloyed, pure material for light-load structural applications
- Iron-Phosphorus – High magnetic response in DC fields

Copper-Based Materials
Steel Materials
Steel-based metal parts offer a balance of strength, toughness, and cost-efficiency. With excellent mechanical properties, our steel powder materials can support assemblies that must perform under stress and strain.
- Iron-Copper – Medium-strength structural applications.
- Carbon – Light-load structural applications.
- Iron-Nickel – Heat-treatable structural parts.
- Prealloyed Steel – High-performance parts that require heat treatment.
- Low-Alloy Steel – Medium-to-high-density applications. Can be heat-treated. High hardenability.
- Sinter-Hardened Steel – High-strength and wear-resistant parts.
- Diffusion-Alloyed Steel – Medium-to-high-strength structural products.
- Copper-Infiltrated Steel – Medium-pressure hydraulics. Improves plating surface & machinability.
