Invar alloys are used for high‐precision applications due to their invariance of the coefficient of thermal expansion over a temperature range up to about 250 °C. The present study determines the mechanical and corrosive properties of Invar 36 (64 % Iron – 36 % Nickel) specimens produced by laser powder bed fusion. Tensile specimens were fabricated to investigate the mechanical properties. The influence of a horizontal and vertical building orientation is considered. An apparent mechanical anisotropy depending on the respective building is observed. Based on this, further tensile specimens were stored in a hydrochloric acid pickling solution, a sulphate buffer solution and a sodium chloride solution to analyse the corrosion behaviour. The findings after eight weeks in the individual media show that outsourcing the Invar 36 specimens in a sulphate buffer solution results in significant changes in the mechanical properties, especially fracture elongation.
