GKN Sinter Metals is a global leader in the production of powder metal parts for a wide range of industries. With a rich history dating back over 100 years, GKN Sinter Metals has a deep understanding of the science and technology behind powder metal manufacturing.

Powder metal parts are made by mixing metal powders with a small amount of a binding agent to create a moldable material that can be pressed into the desired shape. The resulting part is then heated in a furnace to remove the binding agent and sinter the metal powders together, creating a finished product with high strength, durability, and precision.

GKN Sinter Metals offers a wide range of powder metal parts and services, including custom design and engineering, prototyping, testing, and full-scale production. Their expertise in powder metallurgy allows them to create complex shapes and designs with tight tolerances, making them an ideal partner for industries such as automotive, aerospace, industrial, and medical.

Their powder metal parts include gears, bearings, bushings, and structural components, among others. These parts are used in a wide range of applications, from the engine and transmission systems of automobiles and heavy-duty machinery to the medical implants and devices used to save lives and improve quality of life.

GKN Sinter Metals is committed to delivering the highest quality products and services to its customers. They employ a rigorous quality management system that ensures consistency, reliability, and performance of their powder metal parts. They also work closely with customers to understand their needs and requirements, providing personalized solutions and support.
