Cobalt chrome

Cobalt Chrome

This non-magnetic cobalt, chromium and molybdenum-based alloy offers high mechanical strength as well as high resistance to corrosion and fatigue.  It is commonly used in the orthopaedic industry to manufacture machined or forged parts intended for use in full joint replacements, but also in the manufacture of tailor-made dental prostheses.  It is generally supplied in a semi hot-worked condition or annealed to the required resistance, and in its low-carbon version (alloy 1 according to the reference standards).

The Co-Cr-Mo alloy is widely held to be difficult to machine, no matter the type of heat treatment it has undergone. The use of appropriate tools is therefore essential.

We supply Cobalt Chromium powder for metal additive manufacturing, especially for powder bed technologies in 3D printing (SLS, SLM, FDM, EBM…). Our powders meet the ASTM F1537 standard.
