Stainless steel milling
Flanges, plates, bodies and machine parts milled from 1.4301 and 1.4404. The order goes only to shops that machine stainless steel and have the tools for it.
Stainless steel turning
Shafts, bushings, pins and fasteners turned on CNC lathes. The system recognises a rotational part in the STEP file and prices turning instead of milling.
What drives the price of stainless machining
Stainless steel machines more slowly than aluminium and structural steel, and tools wear faster, so the same part costs more. You save most on tolerances: mark critical dimensions on the drawing and leave the rest at ISO 2768-m.

Small batches and single parts
Small batches of 5 to 200 pieces are our most common stainless order, single parts are possible too. You upload the STEP file and drawing and order online, from anywhere in the EU.
Material certificate and inspection
On request we supply a 3.1 material certificate. Every batch is measured before shipping and comes with an inspection report. Mild steel parts are covered on steel CNC machining.
