BASF Ultrafuse® 17-4 PH is an industrial composite filament compatible with the LPD Plus Zortrax Endureal 3D printer. It has features that allow users to produce metal parts in a safe, easy, and cost-effective way in comparison with Metal Injection Molding or metal machining. The filament contains 80% 17-4 stainless steel particles and 20% of polymer content.
BASF Ultrafuse® 17-4 PH can be used for 3D printing strong metal end-use parts, functional prototypes, elements requiring weather resistance, medical equipment, automotive parts, chemical pipes or valves, elements of tools or fixtures. Printed parts have up to 1004 MPa tensile strength, 764 MPa yield strength, up to 4% elongation at break, and have martensitic (magnetic) microstructure.
3D prints gain their unique properties through the proprietary catalytic debinding and sintering process, outsourced at Elnik Systems GmbH. During this process, 3D printed “green parts” turn into fully metal “brown parts.” As a result you receive magnetizable elements with high corrosion resistance. During the post-processing procedures, BASF Ultrafuse® 17-4 PH models shrink by about 20%. This effect should be taken into account when preparing models for 3D printing.
The BASF Ultrafuse® 17-4 PH 3000g filament is an advanced metal-polymer composite designed for professional-grade 3D printing. Ideal for the production of metal parts, this filament combines the flexibility of Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technology with the performance of metal powder sintering. It is widely used for applications in industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, and engineering due to its strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.
The 17-4 PH (Precipitation Hardening) stainless steel used in this filament offers a unique combination of excellent mechanical properties and high corrosion resistance, making it suitable for functional prototypes, tooling, and end-use parts. This filament allows for easy green part production using standard FFF printers, which can later undergo debinding and sintering processes to create 100% metal components.
