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® X (Hastelloy® X) is a solid-solution-strengthened nickel-chromium-iron-base superalloy for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and EBM. It delivers high strength at room and elevated temperatures plus exceptional oxidation and stress-corrosion-cracking resistance up to 2200°F (1204°C), and is non-magnetic.
This powder is engineered for additive manufacturing: a lower carbon content and additional solid-solution strengthening significantly reduce crack susceptibility versus the nominal alloy X composition. Even in the as-processed state it shows mechanical properties equivalent to wrought material at both room and elevated temperatures.
Why teams buy this powder from Additive Plus
- Genuine Carpenter PowderRange® X — gas-atomized for high sphericity, low oxygen 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.

Chemical composition
Typical chemistry (wt%), per the Carpenter PowderRange® datasheet:
| Element | Content | Element | Content |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | Balance | Tungsten (W) | 0.20–1.00% |
| Chromium (Cr) | 20.5–23.0% | Manganese (Mn) | ≤ 0.50% |
| Iron (Fe) | 17.0–20.0% | Copper (Cu) | ≤ 0.50% |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 8.0–10.0% | Aluminum (Al) | ≤ 0.50% |
| Cobalt (Co) | 1.0–2.5% | Silicon (Si) | ≤ 0.20% |
| Carbon (C) | ≤ 0.10% | Titanium (Ti) | ≤ 0.15% |
| Boron (B) | ≤ 0.010% | Phosphorus (P) | ≤ 0.040% |
| Sulfur (S) | ≤ 0.030% | Oxygen (O) | ≤ 0.10% |
Heat treatment & processing
- X is solid-solution strengthened — it is not precipitation-hardenable; optimum high-temperature properties are achieved through solution treatment.
- As-processed parts already reach wrought-equivalent properties at room and elevated temperatures.
- Low carbon and extra solid-solution strengthening give low crack susceptibility — excellent compatibility with laser AM.
Key performance benefits
- Exceptional strength and corrosion resistance up to 2200°F (1204°C)
- Outstanding oxidation and stress-corrosion-cracking resistance
- Non-magnetic
- Low crack susceptibility — highly processable in laser AM
Typical applications
- Turbine rotors, shafts and buckets
- Afterburner components
- Bolts and high-temperature fasteners
- Furnace hardware

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.
