NanoSteel Launches New Tool Steel Material

Today NanoSteel announced that it is launching a new 3D printable tool steel material - the company's first material for laser powder bed fusion after its successful development of a portfolio of materials for binder jet printing. BLDRmetal L-40 is a case-hardening steel powder with high levels of hardness and ductility: it offers a case hardness of >70HRC and 10%+ core elongation. It's easy to 3D print, making it an attractive alternative to more difficult-to-print tool steels such as H13, and according to NanoSteel, it outperforms M300 maraging steel.
