VT machining specialises in CNC Saw Cutting O1 Tool Steel. Because O1 Tool Steel is wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling, and its machinability is machined in the annealed state, then hardened; carbide tooling preferred, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.
CNC Saw Cutting Capability for O1 Tool Steel
- Air/oil/water-hardening grades
- High wear resistance
- Hardenable to 58–64 HRC
- Tolerance to ±0.005 mm
Machining O1 Tool Steel with CNC Saw Cutting
O1 Tool Steel behaves predictably under CNC Saw Cutting once parameters are dialled in: machinability is machined in the annealed state, then hardened; carbide tooling preferred, and we tune the operation accordingly.
We hold reference parameters for this grade, so repeat orders of O1 Tool Steel run consistently from one batch to the next.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Finished O1 Tool 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.
Why O1 Tool Steel?
O1 Tool Steel is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.
Design Tips for CNC Saw Cutting O1 Tool Steel
We are happy to suggest design tweaks that improve manufacturability. Consistent bend radii, adequate flange lengths and grain-direction awareness reduce cracking and springback in formed O1 Tool Steel. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Saw Cutting 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 O1 Tool Steel part to print. Inspection reports, material certificates and first-article documentation can be supplied on request.
CNC Saw Cutting Tolerances & Surface Finish
Formed O1 Tool Steel holds bend angles to about ±0.5° and consistent flange dimensions, with bend allowance compensated for the material and thickness.
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.

How clean are the edges produced by CNC Saw Cutting on O1 Tool Steel?
Machined O1 Tool Steel edges are clean and to specification; edge-break or deburring is added when your drawing calls for it.
Why is O1 Tool Steel a good choice for CNC Saw Cutting?
O1 Tool Steel is wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling, which makes it well suited to CNC Saw Cutting. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished O1 Tool Steel forming part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Does CNC Saw Cutting O1 Tool Steel require dedicated tooling?
Most O1 Tool Steel forming work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
Can VT machining make custom O1 Tool Steel parts to my drawing?
Yes. O1 Tool Steel O1 Tool Steel forming is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
What is CNC Saw Cutting O1 Tool Steel and how is it done?
CNC Saw Cutting O1 Tool Steel refers to cNC saw cutting sections bar, tube and plate to precise length for downstream machining. Applied to O1 Tool Steel — wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
