Characteristics

Stainless Steel

SS-304-N1, N2
SS-316-N1, N2

Good mechanical properties, corrosion resistance & good appearance.

Iron & Carbon Steel

F-0008

Can be used with or without graphite. Used primarily for moderate strength and hardness.

Iron Copper/Copper Steel

FC-0208

The added copper offers wear resistance properties and is excellent for heat treating applications.

This material offers toughness, tensile properties, and hardenability. Typically a heat treatable material.

Low Alloy Steel

FLN-4205

High performance material providing high strength and wear resistance after heat treatment.

Copper Infiltrated
Iron & Steel

FX-2008

This material provides an improved tensile strength, elongation, hardness and impact properties.

Brass

CZ-1000

Used for mechanical components and hardware.

Bronze

CT-1000

Self-lubricating bearings.

Nickel Silver

CNZ-1818

Properties similar to brass, with tensile strengths greater than brass.

Sinter Hardened Stell

FLC-4606

High strength and weal resistance. Medium to high density parts.
