Press and sintered parts
Rio Tinto Metal Powders has a number of press-ready powder mixes, including our Synergy® Series. Compared to conventional metal powder lubricants, Synergy® Series mixes have improved apparent density and more stable flow properties.
Customized products for your conventional metallurgy process
Performance
Expand the possibilities of your process with exceptional lubrication performance even at reduced lubricant loading level. Achieve clean sintered parts without residues from delubrication thanks to a fully organic composition, free of zinc or other metals.

Finishes
Achieve superior surface finishes at even low lubricant loads which reduces die wear and can lower the need for secondary operations. In addition, Synergy® powder mixes lead to perfectly clean parts post sintering.

Compaction
In comparison to regular powder metallurgy lubricants, Synergy® allows for the compaction of taller parts due to a higher apparent density.
