Why use powder metal mechanical hardware rather than traditionally machined mechanical hardware?

  • Net shape capability
  • Minimal or no machining and scrap loss
  • Good surface finishes and tribological properties
  • Cost-effective, high volume manufacture of complex or unique shapes
  • Complex shapes and geometries not practical or impossible with other metal forming processes
  • Part-to-part consistency at exacting tolerances
  • Long-term performance reliability in critical applications
  • Sustainable manufacturing – Green technology
