Third-party mechanical data

Rp0.2 149 MPa, Rm 485 MPa and a 158 GPa Young's modulus after sintering, tested to ASTM E8/E8M. You qualify Fila-MAT Metal 316L against measured numbers, not a filament-vendor estimate.

Debind and sinter parameters included

Every spool ships with 3DCeram's datasheet and the full print, debind and sinter cycle for the M.A.T. FFF head, so green parts reach target density on the first build instead of after trial-and-error.

Fila-MAT Metal 316L — 1.75mm bound-metal feedstock for FFF printing

Why engineers choose Fila-MAT 316L

Four things a process engineer checks before qualifying a bound-metal feedstock.

149 MPa yield, 485 MPa tensile

Rp0.2 149 MPa / Rm 485 MPa post-sinter, tested to ASTM E8/E8M — measured austenitic 316L performance, not a filament-vendor estimate.

158 GPa elastic modulus

Stiffness measured to ASTM E8/E8M on sintered specimens. Austenitic 316L — non-magnetic, weldable, corrosion-resistant.

Tested at ESA’s ESTEC facility

Mechanical data measured with calibrated equipment at the European Space Agency’s technology centre in the Netherlands — third-party test conditions.

Debind & sinter parameters included

Every spool ships with 3DCeram’s datasheet and process parameters for the M.A.T. FFF head, so green parts reach target density predictably.

How the Fila-MAT workflow runs

Print, debind, sinter — the same three-step process behind every bound-metal FFF part.

Step 01
Print on the M.A.T. FFF head

1.75mm feedstock runs on 3DCeram’s M.A.T. printer — max nozzle 270°C, max bed 110°C, with heated filament and print chambers for consistent extrusion.

Step 02
Debind the binder

Binder-removal parameters ship with every spool’s datasheet, tuned for the 316L feedstock — no trial-and-error on the first batch.

Step 03
Sinter to dense metal

High-temperature sintering consolidates the part to dense, corrosion-resistant 316L stainless — ready to use.

Common questions

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.
