VT machining provides CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel for customers who need accurate, repeatable 1144 Steel components. The machinability of 1144 Steel is good to excellent depending on carbon content; free-machining grades cut cleanly, so we set the operation up specifically for this grade.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Capability for 1144 Steel
- Carbon/low-alloy grades
- Economical & weldable
- Tolerance to ±0.02 mm
- Hardenable by heat treat
Machining 1144 Steel with CNC Waterjet Cutting
The machinability of 1144 Steel is good to excellent depending on carbon content; free-machining grades cut cleanly. For CNC Waterjet Cutting we select tooling, feeds, speeds and coolant to match, keeping the 1144 Steel workpiece stable and the result accurate.
Because we machine 1144 Steel regularly, proven settings shorten setup and keep quality repeatable across reorders.
Why 1144 Steel?
Specifying 1144 Steel for CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel is usually about its properties: strong, economical and widely available. Tell us the condition you need and we machine to it.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Quality & Inspection
Consistent quality comes from disciplined process control. Critical dimensions on 1144 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.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
We complete 1144 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.
Design Tips for CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel
A few design choices make a real difference to cost and quality. Keeping holes no smaller than the material thickness, allowing for kerf, and grouping features sensibly improves edge quality and nesting yield on 1144 Steel. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Tolerances & Surface Finish
Laser-cut 1144 Steel holds contour tolerances around ±0.05 mm depending on thickness, with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge.
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.
Applications of CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel
CNC Waterjet Cutting of 1144 Steel supports parts across aerospace, medical, automotive, electronics, semiconductor, energy and general industrial sectors. We scale from one-off prototypes to ongoing production while holding the same quality.

Request a QuoteFrequently Asked Questions
Does CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel require dedicated tooling?
Most 1144 Steel cutting work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
How clean are the edges produced by CNC Waterjet Cutting on 1144 Steel?
Laser cutting leaves 1144 Steel with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge and only a small heat-affected zone.
What surface finish is achievable on 1144 Steel with CNC Waterjet Cutting?
Laser cutting leaves a clean cut face on 1144 Steel with a small heat-affected zone; most parts need little secondary finishing.
What material thickness or size range suits CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel?
Laser-cut 1144 Steel thickness depends on the alloy and its reflectivity; we tune the fiber source and assist gas accordingly.
Which industries use CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel parts?
CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel parts are used across aerospace, medical, automotive, electronics, semiconductor and general industrial sectors — anywhere precise 1144 Steel components are required.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Waterjet Cutting 1144 Steel?
Achievable tolerances for 1144 Steel cutting depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Laser cutting holds contour tolerances to around ±0.05 mm depending on thickness. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
