Components
BASF Polymer and 316L stainless steel composite filament Product

Description
Metal-polymer composite filament to produce metal components in an austenitic stainless-steel type 316L using standard FFF printer systems and subsequently an industry standard debinding and sintering process. The filament has a non-slip surface allowing its application in any Bowden or direct drive extruder. Its high flexibility allows it to be funneled through complex idler pulleys as well as many guide roller filament transportation systems in any printer.

Typical applications are:

• Non-magnetizable parts with high corrosion resistance and toughness

• Watches

• Medical equipment

• Parts for food and chemical industry

• Light weight hollow parts and infill parts

• Parts for tooling and mold inlays with near surface cooling

Delivery form and warehousing
Ultrafuse 316LX is delivered on spools of 3kg. The filaments have a nominal diameter of either 1.75 mm or 2.85 mm.
