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.
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.
PowderRange® CCM-MC is a non-magnetic cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) alloy combining high strength, corrosion resistance and outstanding wear resistance. A high-nitrogen, medium-carbon wrought version of ASTM F75, it is produced by vacuum induction melting (VIM) followed by nitrogen gas atomization for clean, repeatable chemistry.
It holds strength up to 1112°F (600°C), is biocompatible when nickel is kept below 0.1%, and is non-magnetic (MRI-compatible) — ideal for small, high-strength biomedical devices.
Why teams buy this powder from Additive Plus
- Genuine Carpenter PowderRange® CCM-MC — VIM-melted, nitrogen gas-atomized for high sphericity and consistent flow.
- Available in small, workable volumes. Most mills sell large minimums and hide pricing behind an account. We stock this alloy and sell it in accessible quantities at a clear, published price.
- Full COA with every lot — particle size distribution, chemistry, apparent density and flow rate, with a traceable lot number.
- Fast dispatch from Los Angeles.
- Need a custom alloy or a tighter cut? We also run our own atomization in-house and can produce custom small-batch powder on request — separate from this stocked product.

Heat treatment & processing
- Excellent weldability in laser AM; can be processed under nitrogen or argon shielding gas.
- Stress relief / solution treatment can be applied to optimise properties for the application.
- The medium-carbon, high-nitrogen chemistry raises strength versus standard low-carbon CCM.
Key performance benefits
- High strength up to 1112°F (600°C)
- Excellent wear and erosion resistance
- Corrosion resistant across many environments
- Biocompatible (Ni < 0.1%) and non-magnetic / MRI-compatible
Typical applications
- Orthopedic and dental implants
- Medical fracture-fixation devices
- Gas-turbine nozzles and instrumentation
- Oil-and-gas tooling and instrumentation

From process engineers running Cobalt Chrome Alloy Powder for Metal 3D Printing CCM MC | LPBF Compatible - 10 kg / 22 lbs
Unedited feedback from customers who reorder Cobalt Chrome Alloy Powder for Metal 3D Printing CCM MC | 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.
