BASF BASF Ultrafuse 316L Metal 3D Printing Filament - 1.75mm (3kg)

PETG (polyethylene terephthalate) is an exceptionally tough and sturdy printing material which serves as an excellent alternative to PLA and ABS. By adding carbon fibers to the filament, BASF has created amazingly resilient printed parts. Best of all, using PETG as the base means your prints have very low shrinkage, little to no odor, and extremely strong layer bonds.

PET CF combines the ease of printing of PLA with the stiffness of ABS, but has been even further enhanced to have impact resistance, and high tensile strength due to the Carbon Fiber additive. PET also features very low moisture absorption, which is excellent for long term use. Finally, prints have a lovely surface finish that make ensure the material isn't just for functional prints, but also aesthetic applications as well.

How comparable in strength is this part compared to a machined part using 316l

View 3 Responses

This isn't a question, but MatterHackers doesn't offer any kind of feedback system, so here you go. This material is incredibly prone to warping! It's worse than abs, and more like polycarbonate. This is exacerbated by the fact the manufacturer recommends printing with 100% infill. Buyer beware, if your part won't print GREAT in abs, then don't even try this stuff. I'm happy with it otherwise, just thought they didn't put a strong enough warning on here.

If I used a water soluble support that I removed yourself before sending it in, would that work? Would the green state survive that? If I used ABS, could I use acetone to remove/lossen it?

What is the length or volume of filament included. I've always hated this whole buying by weight and with a filament that is 80% Stainless Steel, this spool being 3KG means nothing to me about how much I can print.

Does it have limited manufacturing dimensions? Does it mean that large size parts, for example 300 x 300 mm, can be produced with it?

Should any holes/vacant areas in our parts be decreased in size by 19.82% (x and y) and 26.1% (z)? Would this end up with hole/space expanding to the originally desired size as material is removed?

Will this product (BASF Ultrafuse 316L Metal 3D Printing Filament) work with BCN3D Sigma R19 printer?

Add Response

For 3D printers printing at an angle (e.g. 35-45 deg), should part shrinkage / adjustment be based upon the orientation of the final part in its intended form or the print direction?

Will this be available in less exotic materials? Regular old mild steel would sure be nice. A36, 1018...something with properties similar to that.
