Ultimaker Certified: Ultrafuse 17-4 PH Filament Packaged

Ultimaker Certified: Ultrafuse 17-4 PH Filament Packaged is BASF Forward AM's Ultrafuse 17-4 PH metal-polymer filament in UltiMaker Certified packaging. It is used to make 17-4 PH stainless-steel parts on the UltiMaker S5 and is the core material of the UltiMaker Metal Expansion Kit.

What it does

Your printer produces a green part: metal powder held in a polymer binder. Catalytic debinding and sintering, the process used in metal injection moulding, then turn it into a fully metal stainless-steel part. Typical uses are tools, jigs and fixtures, functional prototypes and spare parts.

Highlights

• Martensitic, precipitation-hardening stainless steel for high strength and hardness
• Good corrosion resistance; the finished metal is magnetic
• No hardware changes on the UltiMaker S5: swap the print cores, load the spool and the NFC chip identifies the material

Before you buy

UltiMaker's Metal Expansion Kit pairs this filament with a metal-optimised CC 0.4 print core, and every part needs debinding and sintering after printing, so plan that step first. Please check your printer model before ordering; our team can confirm compatibility by chat.
