CNC Cylindrical Grinding H13 Tool Steel is part of VT machining's grade-specific capability. H13 Tool Steel is wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling, and we combine controlled grinding with material-aware setup to produce parts that meet your specification.
CNC Cylindrical Grinding Capability for H13 Tool Steel
- Air/oil/water-hardening grades
- High wear resistance
- Hardenable to 58–64 HRC
- Tolerance to ±0.005 mm
Machining H13 Tool Steel with CNC Cylindrical Grinding
The machinability of H13 Tool Steel is machined in the annealed state, then hardened; carbide tooling preferred. For CNC Cylindrical Grinding we select tooling, feeds, speeds and coolant to match, keeping the H13 Tool Steel workpiece stable and the result accurate.
Because we machine H13 Tool Steel regularly, proven settings shorten setup and keep quality repeatable across reorders.
Design Tips for CNC Cylindrical Grinding H13 Tool Steel
A few design choices make a real difference to cost and quality. Allowing adequate grind stock, specifying realistic flatness over the true datum, and relieving corners help us hit tight tolerances on H13 Tool Steel efficiently. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Cylindrical Grinding Quality & Inspection
Consistent quality comes from disciplined process control. Critical dimensions on H13 Tool Steel parts are checked in-process and verified at final inspection using calibrated instruments and, where required, CMM measurement. Full documentation — dimensional reports, mill certs, FAIR — is available when your programme needs it.
Why H13 Tool Steel?
Specifying H13 Tool Steel for CNC Cylindrical Grinding H13 Tool Steel is usually about its properties: wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling. Tell us the condition you need and we machine to it.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
We complete H13 Tool Steel components with the secondary steps your drawing calls for. We arrange heat treatment, surface treatment, marking and assembly as needed. Tell us the final spec and we will plan the full route so parts arrive ready to use.
CNC Cylindrical Grinding Tolerances & Surface Finish
Ground H13 Tool Steel reaches single-micron tolerances on size, flatness and parallelism, with surface finishes down to Ra 0.1–0.4 µm — and a near-mirror finish on suitable alloys.
The tightest tolerances are reserved for the features your drawing flags as critical. Share your tolerance scheme and we will confirm what is realistic before quoting.
