304 LHD

A pre-alloyed austenitic and non-magnetic grade, 304L is the most commonly used grade for P/M stainless steel parts. This is due to its superior corrosion resistance and physical properties. 304L is particularly resistant to attacks by solutions containing chloride ions.

316 LHC/316 LHD

A pre-alloyed austenitic and non-magnetic grade, 316L is the most commonly used grade for P/M stainless steel parts. This is due to its superior corrosion resistance and physical properties. 316L is particularly resistant to attacks by solutions containing chloride ions

410 LHC (Annealed)

A pre-alloyed martensitic and ferro-magnetic grade, 410L is used for hard, wear-resistant P/M stainless steel parts. Hardness after sintering and cooling is high, and can be further augmented with the addition of specific proportions of carbon to the powder mixture. With graphite added to a level of C=0.3%, hardness after sintering and hardening from 1000°C can be increased to HRc32.

430 LHC (Annealed)

A pre-alloyed ferritic and ferro-magnetic grade, 430L is used for P/M stainless steel parts that require higher corrosion resistance than 410L can offer. It also offers excellent magnetic properties.

434 LHC (Annealed)

A pre-alloyed ferritic and ferro-magnetic grade, 430L is used for P/M stainless steel parts that require higher corrosion resistance than 410L can offer. It also offers excellent magnetic properties.
