Flaking - Import export

AMETEK stainless steel flake is manufactured from premium quality 316L stainless steel raw materials. We employ a unique milling process in our dedicated and proprietary batch production area to produce a flattened 316L particle that makes a “leaf” product or flake. As we produce the raw material in-house, our input material is abundant and controlled to the highest quality.

Our high-quality stainless steel flake products are used for high-performance protective paints and industrial coating applications. Produced from our own 316L stainless steel powder, the flake offers numerous benefits for paint additive applications: Corrosion resistance; resistance to alkaline cleaners and detergents Abrasion resistance High specular reflectance Paint Additive Applications Maintenance Coatings: Corrosion protection for equipment exposed to hostile elements and food processing or pharmaceutical plants. Powder Coatings: Automotive trim, wheels, suspension, and under the hood parts (particularly motorsports). Outdoor furniture and bicycles. Architectural Coatings: Gives a metallic look to masonry and exposed metal. Cookware Coatings: Promotes abrasion resistance and heat transfer in non-stick coatings.

Stainless steel powder 316L offers the highest degree of corrosion protection that is available in a standard P/M stainless steel grade. It provides very good strength at extremely high temperatures. AMETEK’s 316 grade stainless steel powder includes many fully customized powder specifications by varying lubricant type, content and particle size. We manufacture high quality 316L powders to fit your applications. 316L stainless steel powders are used in stainless steel flakes and are also used for paint additive manufacturing and chemical filtration. The 300 Series Powders are austenitic stainless steels typically used for powdered metallurgy (P/M) press and sinter applications to make near net shape parts for a variety of industrial applications.
