Astaloy CrM

We wanted to make you aware of a new product offering, which we feel has exciting possibilities.

Recently introduced by North American Hoganaes, Astaloy CrM is a water atomized pre-alloyed iron powder, containing 3% chromium and 0.5% molybdenum.

This alloy exhibits excellent hardenablity. The fully pre-alloyed composition yields a homogenous structure. Due to a very low oxygen content, it is very compressible.

Typical properties are as follows:
Sintered
Sinter Hardened
Tensile strength (ksi)
115
130
Elongation, (%)
1.5
0.5
Hardness (Rc)
20

30

Particle Hardness (Rc)
25
52

We see that this material will be useful in applications where good wear is needed, as well as providing a very tough material with fewer extra processing steps.
