  • Typical hardness 70–200 HB (annealed)

Why 316 Stainless Steel?

316 Stainless Steel is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is corrosion resistant, strong and hygienic. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.

Machining 316 Stainless Steel with CNC Gear Hobbing

316 Stainless Steel behaves predictably under CNC Gear Hobbing once parameters are set: machinability is moderate; work-hardens, so positive-rake tooling and steady feeds are used to avoid glazing, and we tune the operation accordingly.
