FHY100.24 is a widely used sponge iron powder in the powder metallurgy industry. The green and edge strength of the compacts are very high due to the spongy structure of the powder particles. FHY100.24 has a good compressibility and a low and consistent H2-1oss.
FHY100 is a high green strength reduced iron powder specifically manufactured for low to medium density P/M applications, resin casting, and rough magnetic paints.
FHY100 is used to manufacture sintered components, soft magnetic components, brazing pastes, magnetic paints, surface coating, magnetic polymers, welding, chemistry and polymer filtrations and many other applications.
FHY100 is one of the most widely used iron powders. It is a very fine iron powder containing particles as small as 325 mesh. This is also the most cost effective product for many applications.

PRODUCT PACKING
25kg/bag, 1000kg/bag, the package can be customized by buyer’s requirements.
1. What is reduced iron powder?
Reduced iron powder is elemental iron powder produced by reducing iron oxides. It is also commonly called sponge iron powder because of its porous and irregular particle structure.
2. What is reduced iron powder used for?
Reduced iron powder is mainly used in powder metallurgy, welding electrodes, friction materials, oxygen absorbers, hand warmers, water treatment, diamond tools and magnetic materials.
3. What is the difference between reduced iron powder and atomized iron powder?
Reduced iron powder generally has an irregular, porous particle structure, while atomized iron powder typically has more compact particles. The appropriate powder depends on the required compressibility, apparent density, sintering behavior and final application.
4. What particle sizes are available?
Common grades include 100 mesh, 150 mesh, 200 mesh, 300 mesh, 325 mesh, 400 mesh and finer sizes. Customized particle size distributions can also be discussed according to the application.
5. Can you provide customized reduced iron powder?
Yes. We can recommend or customize reduced iron powder according to Fe content, particle size, apparent density, oxygen content, flowability and application requirements.
6. Is reduced iron powder suitable for powder metallurgy?
Yes. Reduced iron powder is widely used as a raw material for powder metallurgy because of its good compressibility, green strength and sintering characteristics.
7. Can reduced iron powder be used for welding electrodes?
Yes. Specific grades are used in welding electrodes, welding rods and flux-cored or metal-cored wires. The recommended grade depends on the electrode formulation and required particle size.
8. Can reduced iron powder be used in hand warmers?
Yes. Iron powder is commonly used as the active iron component in disposable hand warmers and heat packs. The oxidation reaction generates heat under controlled conditions.
9. Can you provide samples for testing?
Yes. Samples can be provided for qualified customers to evaluate particle size, chemical composition, apparent density, compressibility and application performance.
10. What information should I provide for a quotation?
Please tell us your application, required Fe content, particle size/mesh, apparent density, quantity and destination country. We can then recommend a suitable reduced iron powder grade and provide a quotation.
