AMETEK SPECIALTY METAL PRODUCTS - Advanced Metallurgical Products for Critical Applications.

As a world class manufacturer of metallic powders used as plastic additives and fillers, we engineer alloyed stainless steel powders in fine and coarse mesh sizes. Our metal additives are uniquely suited for critical plastic and advanced polymer compounding applications. Products and Sizes We offer several different alloys and sizes of material specifically tailored for polymer compounding. Grades: Our metallurgists and engineers have worked to develop our polymer filler compounding products from 316L, 304L, 430L, and 410L alloys. Sizes: The above grades are typically offered in fine sizes and with surface areas suited to suspension in a variety of polymers. Our Plastic Compounding Fine Powder has a particle size approximately 30 microns.

Since the 1980’s, we have been a leading producer of superfine powders for Metal Injection Molding (MIM). Our expertise and advanced atomization technology enable us to produce very fine MIM powders down to 10µm. Products and Sizes Our MIM water atomization technology is compatible with most conventional high-performance stainless steels and alloys. Special size distributions are available as well as some standard sizes. Grades: 17-4PH®, 70/30 Fe/Cr, 430L, 316L, other 300 Stainless Steel series Sizes: Typically smaller than 20µm Austenitic Stainless Steels 316L used in MIM applications which require good corrosion resistance, strength and ductility. Also available 304L and 310L. Ferritic Stainless Steels 430L ferritic stainless steel combines good magnetic response and some corrosion resistance. Also available 409L, 410L, and 434L.

Our high-quality stainless steel flake products are used for high-performance protective paints and industrial coating applications. Produced from our own 316L stainless steel powder, the flake offers numerous benefits for paint additive applications: Corrosion resistance; resistance to alkaline cleaners and detergents Abrasion resistance High specular reflectance Paint Additive Applications Maintenance Coatings: Corrosion protection for equipment exposed to hostile elements and food processing or pharmaceutical plants. Powder Coatings: Automotive trim, wheels, suspension, and under the hood parts (particularly motorsports). Outdoor furniture and bicycles. Architectural Coatings: Gives a metallic look to masonry and exposed metal. Cookware Coatings: Promotes abrasion resistance and heat transfer in non-stick coatings.

FASTAL clad plate is our premium quality, three-layered product delivering the highest performance for industrial griddles. This tri-metal composite consists of an aluminum core metalurgically bonded between two sheets of stainless steel. Advantages Excellent bond strength Outstanding corrosion resistance Even surface heat distribution Reduced sticking and flavour transfer 30% lighter than carbon steel Can be saw cut or water jet cut Low maintenance Standard Alloys Stainless Steel Clad material: 304, 316, 430 and 436 Typical Sizes Thickness: 1/4 to ¾ inch Widths: 10” to 36” Lengths: 10” to 72” We can produce custom sizes to your specifications, small lot sizes and offer short lead times.

Our Stainless Steel clad plate products are ideally suited for industrial food equipment applications from braising pans to steamer vessels to griddles. The roll bonded clad plate is designed using carbon steel backing with stainless steel cladding offering improved conductivity over solid stainless steel and providing the preferred cooking surface, cleanliness and appearance of stainless steel. Materials Cladding 304 with a A36 Backer plate Sizes Our stainless steel clad plate products are available to the food equipment industry in a variety of shapes and sizes: Available in plates widths and lengths from 10” x 10” up to 30” x 48” Thickness ranging from 3/16” to 3/4” with cladding 10-25% of the overall material thickness Small lot sizes and short lead time can be provided Raw material inventory and just-in-time stocking programs for high volume users.

Our roll bonded clad plate products are engineered for demanding ASME pressure vessel, steam boiler and autoclave applications where high corrosion resistance, pressure resistance and structural performance are critical. Using proven roll bonded technology and corrosion resistant alloys, our high strength clad plate is manufactured to exacting pressure vessel specifications and certified to ASTM A263, A264 or A265 for pressure vessel fabrication. Corrosion Resistant Alloys We specialize in processing high corrosion resistant alloys and BPVC rated materials for stainless steel pressure vessel manufacturers. Other alloys include: Stainless Steels Nickel and Nickel Alloys Inconel®, Monel®, Hastelloy® Aluminum Carbon steel Titanium Other alloys available upon request

Our roll bonded clad plate is ideally suited for structural transition joints. The ability to roll bond dissimilar metals such as stainless steel and aluminum products are ideally suited for in the shipbuilding industry allowing for a weld free transition between stainless steel and aluminum. As a world class clad plate manufacturer, we specialize in producing custom roll bonded clad plate to customer exact specifications. Materials Typical transition plate material is Stainless Steel/Aluminum. However, other material can be considered. Specifications and Certifications Typical material requirements are provided per SA264 with shear and bend test 100% UT examined per SA578-Level B, hot rolled and cleaned. Other material requirements can be provided such as + HIC requirements, Simulated PWHT coupons, and Charpy Impact testing. Material can be supplied to meet ASME BPVC Sec II.

Nickel 201/200 strip (899L) is our premier battery grade that offers improved conductivity over Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 strip while maintaining closer mechanical properties to the lower conductivity materials.

Our specialized Pfinodal® C72900 material is a Spinodal copper based alloy with nickel and tin additions. It competes with Beryllium Copper alloy C17200 for electrical connectors and bearing materials where high strength and excellent formability without dimensional instability are required.

AM 388™ (UNS C72650) is a copper based Spinodal alloy with high conductivity and high strength. The material delivers outstanding performance for contacts in electronic connectors, sockets and switches. AM 388™ is accepted as a safe replacement material for Beryllium Copper alloy.
