ABSTRACT:
A method for making a high density powdered metal article is provided. The composition consists of iron based powder, lubricant, graphite and ferro alloy additions. The composition is compacted in rigid tools at ambient temperature, sintered at high temperature and then formed in rigid tools at 40 to 90 tons per square inch to a density greater than 94% of theoretical. The high density article is then annealed. The final article demonstrates remarkable mechanical properties which are atypical of powdered metal components and approach those of wrought steel.
