ANCORSTEEL 2000
Abstract Ancorsteel 2000 is a water atomized low-alloy powder metal containing Ni, Mo, and Mn and is useful in powder metal parts requiring greater hardenability. In the powder production process used to make Ancorsteel, molten steel is atomized into irregular, homogeneous particles which are then annealed to produce uniform, dependable steel powders. Ancorsteel grades are designed for powder metallurgy parts requiring densities exceeding 6.7 g/cm^3 (0.24 lb/in.^3). This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, and tensile properties as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on powder metal forms.
