MATERIAL · STAINLESS STEEL TURNING
Stainless, on the lathe.
Stainless is roughly half of what we turn. Free-machining 303 for production runs. 304 and 316 for sanitary and marine. 17-4 PH when strength matters. We feed and speed for the alloy — not the chart.

01 / Alloys we cut
Stocked & dialed-in.
303
Free-machining production. Pump shafts, fittings, fasteners.
304
Sanitary and food-grade. Brewery, distillery, processing.
316
Marine and chemical. Salt-resistant, more corrosion immunity than 304.
17-4 PH
High-strength shafts, valve internals. Heat-treatable.
400 series
Cutlery-grade, knife blanks, harden-and-temper parts.
