What surface finish is achievable on 1008 Steel with CNC Polishing?
Our finishing processes refine 1008 Steel surfaces to Ra values as low as 0.05 µm for cosmetic or sealing faces.
What is CNC Polishing 1008 Steel and how is it done?
CNC Polishing 1008 Steel refers to cNC polishing refines surfaces to a smooth, reflective finish for cosmetic and functional needs. Applied to 1008 Steel — strong, economical and widely available — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Polishing 1008 Steel?
Achievable tolerances for 1008 Steel finishing depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. We hold tight, repeatable tolerances appropriate to the feature and material. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
How clean are the edges produced by CNC Polishing on 1008 Steel?
Our deburring leaves 1008 Steel with a consistent, controlled edge break and burr-free surfaces.
Why is 1008 Steel a good choice for CNC Polishing?
1008 Steel is strong, economical and widely available, which makes it well suited to CNC Polishing. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished 1008 Steel finishing part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
