Nickel increases tensile properties of as-sintered powder metallurgy steels approximately one-half as much as copper but provides significantly higher strength after heat treatment. This is because of the heterogeneous nature of nickel-alloy steels made of blended elemental powders.

ECM technologies, Pleasant Prairie, Wis., will deliver a low-pressure carburization and high-pressure gas quench system to Mercury Marine of Fond du Lac, Wis. This is part of the latter’s plan to upgrade its heat-treating capabilities with a move to the low-pressure carburization and high-pressure gas quench system.
