Abstract

The invention concerns a method of preparing sintered products having high tensile strength and high impact strength comprising the steps of forming a mixture by mixing an iron powder including 1-4% by weight of Cr, 0.2-0.8% by weight of Mo 0.09-0.3% by weight % of Mn, less than 0.01% of C, less than 0.25% by weight of O, 0-1.2% of graphite, a high temperature lubricant and optionally an organic binder; preparing a heated powder composition by heating the mixture to a temperature above ambient temperature; transferring the heated powder composition to a preheated die; forming a compacted body by compacting the heated powder composition in the die at an elevated temperature; and forming a sintered product by sintering the compacted body at a temperature of at least 1220.degree. C.
