Joining additively manufactured (AM) complex shaped parts to larger conventionally produced parts can lead to innovative product designs. Another alternative is direct deposition on a conventional semi-product. Therefore, similar joints of maraging tool steel 1.2709 were produced by AM deposition of powder of this steel on a bulk conventionally manufactured steel part. The resulting hybrid parts were solution annealed and precipitation hardened. Solution annealing at 820 °C for 20 min was followed by furnace cooling. Precipitation hardening was performed at 490 °C for 6 h. The mechanical properties of the samples were characterised using tensile testing and hardness measurement across the joint. Metallographic analysis was also carried out. The tensile properties of the AM and conventionally produced steel after equivalent heat treatments were also determined as the reference values. The mechanical properties of the hybrid parts are close to the properties of both steels. The hybrid parts in the as-built condition had a tensile strength of 1029 MPa and a total elongation of 14%. Solution annealing did not change these properties significantly, except for yield strength, which decreased by approximately 150 MPa. After precipitation annealing, the strength was higher, 2011 MPa, and total elongation dropped to 5%.
