CNC Thread Grinding SKD61 Tool Steel

CNC Thread Grinding SKD61 Tool Steel is part of VT machining's grade-specific capability. SKD61 Tool Steel is wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling, and we combine controlled grinding with material-aware setup to produce parts that meet your specification.

CNC Thread Grinding Capability for SKD61 Tool Steel

  • Air/oil/water-hardening grades
  • High wear resistance
  • Hardenable to 58–64 HRC
  • Tolerance to ±0.005 mm

Machining SKD61 Tool Steel with CNC Thread Grinding

The machinability of SKD61 Tool Steel is machined in the annealed state, then hardened; carbide tooling preferred. For CNC Thread Grinding we select tooling, feeds, speeds and coolant to match, keeping the SKD61 Tool Steel workpiece stable and the result accurate.

Because we machine SKD61 Tool Steel regularly, proven settings shorten setup and keep quality repeatable across reorders.

Secondary Operations & Finishing

We complete SKD61 Tool Steel components with the secondary steps your drawing calls for. We arrange heat treatment, surface treatment, marking and assembly as needed. Tell us the final spec and we will plan the full route so parts arrive ready to use.

CNC Thread Grinding Quality & Inspection

Consistent quality comes from disciplined process control. Critical dimensions on SKD61 Tool Steel parts are checked in-process and verified at final inspection using calibrated instruments and, where required, CMM measurement. Full documentation — dimensional reports, mill certs, FAIR — is available when your programme needs it.

CNC Thread Grinding Tolerances & Surface Finish

Ground SKD61 Tool Steel 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.

The tightest tolerances are reserved for the features your drawing flags as critical. Share your tolerance scheme and we will confirm what is realistic before quoting.

Design Tips for CNC Thread Grinding SKD61 Tool Steel

A few design choices make a real difference to cost and quality. Allowing adequate grind stock, specifying realistic flatness over the true datum, and relieving corners help us hit tight tolerances on SKD61 Tool Steel efficiently. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
