Hastelloy X Powder for Additive Manufacturing | LPBF Compatible - 10 kg / 22 lbs
Extreme Heat Resistance. Oxidation Resistant. Built for AM.
Produce high-performance components with Hastelloy X powder engineered for demanding high-temperature environments. Hastelloy X powder is a high-temperature nickel alloy designed for additive manufacturing, offering excellent oxidation resistance and stable performance in extreme environments.
What your process engineer actually checks
Locked, traceable lot chemistry
Every lot ships with a COA documenting PSD, sphericity, flow rate, apparent density, and full chemistry — and a lot number you can trace. Aerospace and medical teams reorder 4+ times without re-qualifying.
Qualified parameters, not just powder
Validated parameter sets for EOS M 290, Renishaw 500Q, SLM 280, and our own AO Metal LPBF ship with the order. Load the profile and hit density on the first build — no parameter-development burn.
A materials engineer on the line
Questions on ferrite content, flowability, recyclate ratios, or HIP response? A materials engineer answers directly — not a contact-form bot. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.
Hastelloy X powder is a solid-solution strengthened nickel-chromium-iron alloy developed for high-temperature applications in additive manufacturing. Known in the industry as Alloy X and widely referenced as Nickel Alloy HX, this material delivers a unique combination of oxidation resistance, mechanical strength, and process stability.
PowderRange® X has been specifically optimized for additive manufacturing processes such as LPBF and EBM. Compared to conventional formulations, it offers reduced crack susceptibility and improved microstructural stability, making it highly suitable for complex geometries and critical components.
Unlike precipitation-hardened alloys, this material achieves its properties through solid-solution strengthening. As a result, it maintains stable mechanical performance across a wide temperature range, including extreme environments up to 2200°F (1204°C).
Due to its excellent resistance to oxidation and stress corrosion cracking, Nickel Alloy HX is widely used in aerospace and energy applications where reliability under thermal stress is essential.

Unedited feedback from customers who reorder Hastelloy X Powder for Additive Manufacturing | LPBF Compatible - 10 kg / 22 lbs.
Same lot 4 times in a row. We stopped re-running parameter sweeps after the second order — density was identical to the first build.
Asked about ferrite content on a Friday. A materials engineer answered Monday morning with actual data, not a sales pitch. That's why we keep ordering.
COA matches the bottle. PSD and flow are exactly what was on the sheet — we run it on a Renishaw 500Q and it hits density on the first try.
