Abstract
The work attempts substitution of very expensive, wear resistant Co-WC powders, that are commonly used in the production of sintered diamond tools, with cheap iron-base counterparts manufactured by ball milling. It has been shown that ball milled Fe-Ni and Fe-Mn powders can be consolidated to a virtually pore-free condition by hot pressing at 900°C. The as-consolidated materials are characterised by high hardness and resistance to 3-body abrasion.
