The invention concerns a pre-alloyed metal powder consisting essentially of tungsten and/or molybdenum, at least one transition metal selected among iron, cobalt, nickel and copper, and optionally at least one additive, the iron content being less than 50 wt. % and the total additive content being less than 3 wt. %, relative to the total weight of metals, said pre-alloyed metal powder having elementary grain size measured with scanning electron microscope, greater than 200 nm and less than 5 micrometers. The invention also concerns a sintered part obtained with such a powder. The invention is particularly applicable for producing sintered parts to be used as electric contacts, heat sinks, spark machining electrodes, mechanical balance weights, inertial units, tool-holders, anti-radiation screen, armament components, sintered steel or diamond charged cutting or grinding tools or with titanium carbide.
