CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel from VT machining delivers precision 1095 Steel parts made to your exact drawing. Fast-hole EDM drilling produces small, deep holes in hard metals, including starter holes for wire EDM, with parameters tuned to 1095 Steel, which is strong, economical and widely available.
CNC EDM Drilling Capability for 1095 Steel
- Carbon/low-alloy grades
- Economical & weldable
- Tolerance to ±0.02 mm
- Hardenable by heat treat
Machining 1095 Steel with CNC EDM Drilling
1095 Steel behaves predictably under CNC EDM Drilling once parameters are dialled in: machinability is good to excellent depending on carbon content; free-machining grades cut cleanly, and we tune the operation accordingly.
We hold reference parameters for this grade, so repeat orders of 1095 Steel run consistently from one batch to the next.
Design Tips for CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel
We are happy to suggest design tweaks that improve manufacturability. EDM suits sharp internal corners, thin ribs and hardened 1095 Steel that cannot be milled; allowing a small corner radius where possible speeds the cut. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
Why 1095 Steel?
1095 Steel is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is strong, economical and widely available. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Finished 1095 Steel parts can move straight into secondary operations under one roof. Typical add-ons are deburring, passivation, anodising, plating, blasting, polishing and laser marking. We coordinate the whole chain so you receive complete, inspection-ready parts.
CNC EDM Drilling Quality & Inspection
We control quality throughout the process, not just at the end. In-process checks plus final inspection — including CMM where specified — keep every 1095 Steel part to print. Inspection reports, material certificates and first-article documentation can be supplied on request.
CNC EDM Drilling Tolerances & Surface Finish
EDM holds tolerances to roughly ±0.002–0.005 mm with no cutting force on the 1095 Steel part, producing fine, controlled surface textures and sharp internal corners impossible to mill.
Final tolerances are governed by the material's behaviour, wall thickness and overall stiffness. We give honest DFM feedback if a callout would be costly or better achieved another way.
Applications of CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel
Customers order CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel components for everything from instrumentation to structural and functional assemblies. Whether you need a single prototype or recurring production volume, the same process discipline applies.

What tolerances can you hold for CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel?
Achievable tolerances for 1095 Steel EDM machining depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. EDM holds tolerances to around ±0.002 mm with no cutting force on the part. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
What is the typical lead time and minimum order for CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel?
CNC EDM Drilling prototypes for 1095 Steel can be produced quickly and scaled to series production. Send your drawing and quantity and we will advise lead time and any minimum order.
Why is 1095 Steel a good choice for CNC EDM Drilling?
1095 Steel is strong, economical and widely available, which makes it well suited to CNC EDM Drilling. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished 1095 Steel EDM machining part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Can you EDM-machine hardened 1095 Steel?
Yes. EDM removes material by electrical discharge rather than cutting force, so hardened and difficult 1095 Steel can be machined to fine detail and tight tolerance without distortion.
What is CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel and how is it done?
CNC EDM Drilling 1095 Steel refers to fast-hole EDM drilling produces small, deep holes in hard metals, including starter holes for wire EDM. Applied to 1095 Steel — strong, economical and widely available — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
