Abstract
An Fe—Mo—Cu—C-based alloy steel powder for powder metallurgy has a chemical composition containing Mo: 0.2 mass % to 1.5 mass %, Cu: 0.5 mass % to 4.0 mass %, and C: 0.1 mass % to 1.0 mass %, with a balance being Fe and incidental impurities, wherein an iron-based powder has a mean particle size of 30 μm to 120 μm, and a Cu powder has a mean particle size of 25 μm or less. Despite the alloy steel powder for powder metallurgy having a chemical composition not containing Ni, a part produced by sintering a press formed part of the powder and further carburizing-quenching-tempering the sintered part has mechanical properties of at least as high tensile strength, toughness, and sintered density as a Ni-added part.
