CNC Lathe Machining 316L Stainless Steel

VT machining specialises in CNC Lathe Machining 316L Stainless Steel. Because 316L Stainless Steel is corrosion resistant, strong and hygienic, and its machinability is moderate; work-hardens, so positive-rake tooling and steady feeds are used to avoid glazing, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.

CNC Lathe Machining Capability for 316L Stainless Steel

  • Austenitic/martensitic grades
  • Corrosion resistant
  • Tolerance to ±0.01 mm
  • Typical hardness 70–200 HB (annealed)

Machining 316L Stainless Steel with CNC Lathe Machining

When turning 316L Stainless Steel, machinability is moderate; work-hardens, so positive-rake tooling and steady feeds are used to avoid glazing. Our process plan reflects this so the finished part holds its tolerances without distortion or poor finish.

Why 316L Stainless Steel?

Customers select 316L Stainless Steel for CNC Lathe Machining because it is corrosion resistant, strong and hygienic. We handle grade verification and any required heat treatment or finishing.
