Hastelloy X Nickel Alloy Powder for LPBF — 15–45 µm, 10 kg
Carpenter Hastelloy X powder price: $1,105 per 10 kg ($110.50/kg)
Solid-solution nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum superalloy with strength and oxidation resistance to 1204 °C (2200 °F). Carpenter tunes the chemistry for lower crack susceptibility than nominal alloy X, and as-built parts match wrought properties. Vacuum-induction-melted and argon-atomized (PowderRange X).
* Carpenter data with 30 µm layers and specific energy ≥ 59 J/mm³.

What the particles look like
From the manufacturer datasheet

SEM image of typical PowderRange X powder, from the Carpenter Additive datasheet; scale bar 100 µm.
Each order ships with the Carpenter Additive certificate of analysis for its lot: chemistry, particle size distribution (D10/D50/D90) and density. Ask us if you need to see a recent certificate before ordering.
How the printed metal performs
Room-temperature tensile data published by Carpenter Additive for PowderRange X: average of at least 5 samples per orientation and condition. A guide for your own qualification, not design data. Condition names as in the datasheet.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| As-built | X–Y | 663 | 876 | 34% | 81 | 100 |

Heat treatment
Carpenter datasheet, process guidance
- Solution anneal: 1177 °C (2150 °F) for 1 hour, then cool below 540 °C (1000 °F) fast enough to avoid precipitation; rapid air cool for thin parts, oil or water quench for heavy sections.
- Age is usually not needed; if used: 760 °C (1400 °F) for 3 hours, air cool, then 595 °C (1100 °F) for 3 hours, air cool.
- HIP to close porosity: at least 100 MPa (14.5 ksi) at about 1260 °C (2300 °F) for 240 minutes or more under inert gas, then solution treat.
- Not precipitation-hardenable. Machine with single-point carbide tools and a sulfur-base cutting fluid, removed before heat treatment.
