The Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF) has just published the 2016 edition of its “Standard 35 – Metal Injection Molded Parts”. Developed by the Metal Injection Moulding parts manufacturing industry, each section of this updated 38-page standard is clearly distinguished by easy-to-read data tables (Inch-Pound and SI Units) and explanatory information for materials listed.

This standard provides design and materials engineers with the latest engineering property data and information available in order to specify materials for components made by the MIM process.

Available in print and digital formats, it is an essential resource for all involved in the MIM processs including quality assurance/laboratory staff and sales representatives. Publication of the 2016 edition of this standard renders the 2007 edition, and prior editions, obsolete.

This latest edition includes new materials and mechanical property data for heat treated MIM-440 stainless steel. It also includes data on the following materials that had been previously published as addenda on the MPIF website:

• Copper: MIM-Cu, as sintered, including CTE data
• Low-alloy steel: MIM-4140, quenched and tempered

The standard is available for $50.00 as a PDF for immediate download or in print format. The PDF and print edition can be purchased together for $70.00
