About this product
FEATURES
Alumina filament is an innovative material specifically engineered for advanced ceramic additive manufacturing. Composed of finely processed alumina, this filament enables the direct 3D printing of intricate, durable components with superior surface finish and mechanical performance.
Renowned for its remarkable heat resistance and strength, Alumina is widely utilized in demanding environments such as aerospace and automotive industries. Its unique composition provides excellent durability while remaining lightweight, making it suitable for high-performance applications. The filament’s ability to withstand elevated temperatures ensures reliability in critical components subjected to thermal stress.
Compatible with cutting-edge 3D printing techniques like Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF), Alumina filament allows manufacturers to produce complex geometries with high accuracy and minimal waste. This significantly reduces lead times and costs compared to traditional manufacturing methods.
With its impressive strength, heat resistance, and versatility, Alumina filament is perfect for creating functional parts, prototypes, and custom components that require both durability and precision.
Applications:
• Aerospace components and structures
• Automotive parts requiring heat resistance
• Industrial machinery and tools
• Prototypes for high-performance applications
• Custom fixtures and specialized equipment
Advantages:
• Exceptional heat resistance and strength
• Lightweight yet durable
• Suitable for complex designs with high precision
• Compatible with various finishing processes
• Ideal for applications demanding performance and reliability
All tests have been performed according relevant standards with calibrated test equipment at ESA’s technology centre in the Netherlands (ESTEC).
M.A.T. is an Additive Manufacturing (AM) solution for the production of complex geometries made out of metals and ceramics. With the M.A.T., 3DCERAM TIWARI utilizes the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technique to produce ceramic and metallic parts with a 3D-printer working with special filaments. The 3D- printed parts are then eliminated of any non-metallic or non-ceramic component (binder) with the help of heat treatment at high temperatures, yielding pure and resistant parts suitable for all engineering applications in a matter of days. This cost-effective technique is suitable for a number of metals and ceramics, including metal-ceramic or ceramic-ceramic composites, and is capable of producing parts with high relative density.

What is Fila-MAT Metal 316L and how does it produce metal parts?
Fila-MAT Metal 316L is a 3DCeram bound-metal feedstock — a 1.75mm filament loaded with 316L austenitic stainless-steel powder held in a polymer binder. You print a green part on the 3DCeram M.A.T. FFF head like any thermoplastic, then remove the binder (debinding) and sinter the part in a furnace to consolidate the steel into a dense, corrosion-resistant component. The result is a functional 316L metal part made on an extrusion printer, without a laser powder-bed system. Every spool ships with the debind and sinter parameters so the first build reaches target density predictably.
Which printer is Fila-MAT Metal 316L compatible with?
Fila-MAT Metal 316L is qualified for the 3DCeram M.A.T. multi-additive printer running its FFF extrusion head. The M.A.T. uses heated filament and print chambers that keep the highly filled metal feedstock extruding consistently, and it is matched to that machine rather than sold as a generic 1.75mm filament — which is why the print, debind and sinter parameters ship together. If you do not run an M.A.T. yet, Additive Plus can quote the printer alongside the feedstock so the whole workflow is validated from one supplier.
What post-processing does Fila-MAT Metal 316L require?
Like every bound-metal FFF material, Fila-MAT Metal 316L needs two steps after printing: debinding and sintering. Debinding removes the polymer binder from the green part, and high-temperature sintering fuses the remaining 316L powder into dense metal. The debind and sinter parameters are supplied on the datasheet with every order, so you are not guessing cycle times or temperatures. Additive Plus can also advise on debinding and sintering equipment if you do not already run a furnace suited to the alloy.
What mechanical properties can I expect after sintering?
After sintering, Fila-MAT Metal 316L reaches roughly 7.85 g/cc density, 149 MPa yield strength (Rp0.2), 485 MPa ultimate tensile strength (Rm) and a 158 GPa Young's modulus, with 16.2 W/m-K thermal conductivity at 30°C and a CTE of 17.6 ppm/°C. Tensile figures were tested to ASTM E8/E8M. Exact values depend on your debind and sinter cycle; the full datasheet ships with every spool of Fila-MAT Metal 316L.
How much does a Fila-MAT Metal 316L part shrink during debinding and sintering?
Bound-metal parts shrink as the binder is removed and the metal densifies during sintering, so a green part is printed larger than the final dimension and scales down predictably. The exact linear shrinkage for Fila-MAT Metal 316L is defined in the 3DCeram datasheet supplied with every spool and is applied in the recommended slicer profile, so your CAD dimensions map to the finished part. A materials engineer at Additive Plus can walk through the shrinkage factor for your specific geometry before you commit to a production run.
Why choose 316L stainless steel for FFF metal printing?
316L is an austenitic stainless steel prized for corrosion resistance, ductility and weldability, which is why it is common in medical, marine, food-processing and chemical-handling parts. Printing it as a bound-metal filament lets you produce complex 316L geometries on an extrusion printer and post-process to dense metal, rather than machining from bar or running a powder-bed system. Talk to an Additive Plus engineer about whether 316L suits your service environment and load case.
Does Fila-MAT Metal 316L need heat treatment after sintering?
316L is typically used in the as-sintered condition and is not precipitation-hardened the way 17-4PH is, so most parts do not require an additional strengthening heat treatment. Depending on the application you may specify a solution-annealing step for corrosion performance or stress relief. The datasheet supplied with every spool covers the recommended debind and sinter cycle, and an Additive Plus materials engineer can advise whether any post-sinter thermal step benefits your part.
