VT machining specialises in CNC Surface Grinding Hastelloy C22. Because Hastelloy C22 is high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance, and its machinability is very difficult; rigid setups, carbide/ceramic tooling, low speeds, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.

Tool life is measured in minutes, not hours. Ceramic or coated-carbide tooling, low surface speed, high pressure coolant, and a scheduled tool change rather than waiting for failure.
Machining Hastelloy C22 with CNC Surface Grinding
Hastelloy C22 behaves predictably under CNC Surface Grinding once parameters are dialled in: machinability is very difficult; rigid setups, carbide/ceramic tooling, low speeds, and we tune the operation accordingly.
We hold reference parameters for this grade, so repeat orders of Hastelloy C22 run consistently from one batch to the next.
Achievable Tolerances for CNC Surface Grinding Hastelloy C22
| Feature | Standard | Precision |
|---|---|---|
| Size (OD, ID, thickness) | ±0.005 mm | ±0.002 mm |
| Flatness over 100 mm | 0.010 mm | 0.003 mm |
| Parallelism | 0.010 mm | 0.003 mm |
| Roundness | 0.005 mm | 0.002 mm |
| Squareness | 0.010 mm | 0.005 mm |
| Surface finish | Ra 0.4 µm | Ra 0.1 µm |
| Workpiece hardness | up to 62 HRC | up to 65 HRC |
Standard is what a normal quotation assumes. Precision is available on nominated features and is priced separately, because it needs extra setups, in-process gauging and CMM verification. Call out only the features that need it — blanket-tightening a drawing is the single most common reason a quote comes back expensive.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Finished Hastelloy C22 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.
Design Tips for CNC Surface Grinding Hastelloy C22
We are happy to suggest design tweaks that improve manufacturability. Allowing adequate grind stock, specifying realistic flatness over the true datum, and relieving corners help us hit tight tolerances on Hastelloy C22 efficiently. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Surface Grinding 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 Hastelloy C22 part to print. Inspection reports, material certificates and first-article documentation can be supplied on request.
CNC Surface Grinding Tolerances & Surface Finish
Ground Hastelloy C22 reaches single-micron tolerances on size, flatness and parallelism, with surface finishes down to Ra 0.1–0.4 µm — and a near-mirror finish on suitable alloys.
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.
Why Hastelloy C22?
Hastelloy C22 is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.
