Developed by the metal injection molding (MIM) commercial parts manufacturing industry, each section of the standard is clearly distinguished by easy-to-read data tables (Inch-Pound and SI Units) and explanatory information for materials listed. This standard is a must-have document and provides the design and materials engineer with the latest engineering property data and information available in order to specify materials for components made by the MIM process. NOTE: Publication of the 2018 edition of this standard renders the 2016 edition (and prior editions) obsolete. Previous editions should no longer be distributed but destroyed.
