PowerMetal™ alloys utilize the Hall-Petch Effect to achieve dramatic increases in mechanical properties. As grain boundaries get smaller, material properties improve, and PowerMetal’s grains are on the nano-scale from 10-50 nm on average.

With a significantly higher Yield Stress of 260 ksi (1785 MPa) than titanium or steel alloys, PowerMetal’s n-Ni Fe(20) system offers a Specific Strength just slightly higher than that of Maraging Steels and Beta Titaniums, but with added design and manufacturing flexibility to give you the strength where you need it at a competitive cost.
