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.

About this product

A-Powder Inconel 718 (IN718) is Additive Plus’s own-brand nickel superalloy for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF): high strength with excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance to about 700°C — the same industrial quality at an accessible price.

Why teams buy A-Powder from Additive Plus

  • Additive Plus’s own A-Powder line — the same industrial AM-powder quality at an accessible, published price.
  • Gas-atomized for high sphericity, low oxygen and consistent flow.
  • Available in small, workable volumes — no large mill minimums.
  • Full COA with every lot — PSD, chemistry, apparent density and flow rate, with a traceable lot number.
  • Fast dispatch from Los Angeles. Need a tighter cut or a custom quantity? Just ask.

Standards & equivalents

  • Made to the Alloy 718 specification: ASTM F3055 · AMS 5662 / 5664 · UNS N07718 · 2.4668 · Inconel 718
  • Machine type: F — LPBF · Particle size: 15–45 µm (custom cuts available) · Bottle: 10 kg / 22 lbs
  • Quality: gas-atomized for high sphericity and low oxygen; full COA per lot.

Chemical composition

Typical chemistry (wt%) for Alloy 718:

Element Content Element Content
Nickel (Ni) 50.00–55.00% Aluminum (Al) 0.20–0.80%
Iron (Fe) Balance Cobalt (Co) ≤ 1.00%
Chromium (Cr) 17.0–21.0% Manganese / Silicon ≤ 0.35% each
Niobium + Tantalum 4.75–5.50% Carbon (C) ≤ 0.08%
Molybdenum (Mo) 2.80–3.30% Copper (Cu) ≤ 0.30%
Titanium (Ti) 0.65–1.15% Boron (B) ≤ 0.006%

Heat treatment & processing

  • Age-hardenable — solution anneal then age (e.g. per AMS 5662/5664) to reach full strength.
  • Forgiving heat-treatment window thanks to the sluggish aging response.
  • Low crack susceptibility — excellent processability in laser AM with strong as-built properties.

Key performance benefits

  • High tensile, fatigue and creep resistance to 1300°F (704°C)
  • Customizable properties through heat treatment
  • Resistance to chlorides, stress corrosion and sulfide stress cracking
  • Excellent AM processability

Typical applications

  • Jet-engine and high-speed airframe parts
  • Gas-turbine components
  • Oil-and-gas tooling
  • High-temperature impellers

★★★★★ 4.9 / 5 · 24 reviews
★★★★★

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.

PS

★★★★★

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.

What is Inconel 718?
Inconel 718 is a nickel-based superalloy powder engineered for LPBF additive manufacturing. It provides excellent high-temperature strength, corrosion resistance, and predictable mechanical performance after heat treatment.
Which additive manufacturing processes are compatible?
Optimized for LPBF. Spherical particles with tight PSD (15–53 µm) and ultra-low oxygen content (≤200 ppm) provide smooth recoating, minimal spatter, and repeatable layer deposition.
Can Inconel 718 be heat-treated?
Yes, heat treatment improves mechanical properties: UTS 1350 MPa, yield 1150 MPa, elongation 23 %, hardness 45 HRC.
What industries typically use Inconel 718?
Aerospace, energy, and industrial applications requiring high-temperature, corrosion-resistant, and structurally critical components.
Is A-Powder the same quality as name-brand metal powders?
Yes. A-Powder is our own brand of industrial AM powder - gas-atomized for high sphericity and low oxygen, with a full Certificate of Analysis (chemistry, particle-size distribution, apparent density and flow rate) on every lot. You get the performance you expect from a premium feedstock, at a more accessible, published price.
Can I order a smaller quantity or a custom particle size?
Yes. We sell in small, workable volumes with no large mill minimums, and we can supply custom particle-size cuts or quantities on request - just ask us for a quote.
