The strength information given above is also valid for other sintered stainless material pressed by other methods. For gravity sintered material, the strength is only around 1/3 of the values in the table.
Roll-compacted material is not as flat as axially pressed material. The camber allowance for roll-formed sheet is 0.2mm per 25mm (0.008"/1"), while a large axially pressed disc of, say, 8" diameter, would be flat within 0.5mm total (0.020").
