In short: Silver (Ag) has the highest electrical conductivity of all metals. In metal 3D printing it is used for jewellery, special conductive structures and electronic components; its high reflectivity makes laser and parameter selection important.
Typical applications
- Jewellery and custom designs
- Electronics and RF conductive structures
- Research and special conductive components

Particle size and compatible processes
The standard cut is 15–53 µm, suitable for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF / SLM / DMLS) machines. Coarser cuts for DED/LMD processes can be requested. Share your machine model and layer thickness and we will confirm the right cut and batch documents together.
Frequently asked questions
Pure silver or 925 sterling silver powder?
Pure silver is chosen for conductivity; 925 sterling is chosen for jewellery standards and higher hardness.
Silver powder price: what does it depend on?
The price depends on order quantity (kg), particle size cut, packaging (argon-filled cans or bottles), required documents (certificate of analysis, PSD report) and lead time. For a current price, state the quantity and your machine model in the quote form.
Which documents come with the order?
A certificate of analysis with chemical composition, particle size distribution (D10/D50/D90), flow and density values can be requested for each batch. Additional documents for aerospace, medical or dental projects are confirmed at the quotation stage.
Price and supply
Send your price and delivery request for Silver powder with quantity, particle size, machine model and required quality documents. Supply options and documents are confirmed with the quotation.
Pure silver and 925 silver are not interchangeable. Specify process, purity and particle size cut.
