Material Features
- Good corrosion resistance
- Good ductility
- High impact toughness
AMPLUS+ 316L metal powders have been specifically designed and optimised for use in Additive Manufacturing (AM).
AMPLUS+ 316L metal powders are widely used and successfully proven in AM. AMPLUS+ 316L processes well across the broad spectrum of AM machines and technologies due to their excellent fusion and melting characteristics in PBF and EBM applications.
Our Stainless Steel powder is available to purchase in 10kg security sealed containers or alternatively in 50kg drums.
Particle sizes available: |
