Ancorsteel 1000B
Ancorsteel 1000C
The three most specified Ancorsteel grades
In the powder production process used to make Ancorsteel, molten steel is atomized into irregular,
homogeneous particles which are then annealed to produce the uniform, dependable steel powders designated
as "Ancorsteel". Ancorsteel grades are designed for P/M parts requiring densities exceeding 6.7 g/cm3.
