Abstract
There is provided a process for infiltrating a compacted ferrous powder metal body with copper or a copper alloy which process is characterized by presintering the ferrous metal body at a temperature of from about 1875.degree. F. to a temperature below the melting point of the infiltrant, and then in the same furnace, raising the temperature above the melting point of the copper or copper alloy infiltrant for a period sufficient to infiltrate the powder metal body. This process is more economical than the prior double run infiltration processes and provides excellent impact strengths and tensile strengths.
