This standard has been developed to provide the design and materials engineer with the latest engineering property data and information available in order to specify materials made by the metal injections molding (MIM) process.

Developed by the MIM commercial manufacturing industry, each section of the standard is clearly distinguished by easy - to - read data tables and explanatory information for each material listed.

The standard covers three main material systems of the MIM industry - Low Alloy Steels, Stainless Steels and, for the first time, Soft Magnetic Materials. Explanatory notes and definitions help to make the standard "user friendly". Every engineering professional should consider this standard as a "must have" document.
