Diffusion-Alloyed Steel

Diffusion-Alloyed Steel

Diffusion alloyed steel powder metal parts are created by thermally bonding the alloying elements to the individual particles of the base iron or steel. Similar to nickel and pre-alloyed steel grades, diffusion-alloyed steels are useful in medium to high-density applications and can achieve densities above 7.0 g/cm3. Diffusion-alloyed steels are used in high strength applications and may be heat-treated to increase wear resistance.
