Stainless steel combines excellent high tensile strength, high work-hardening rate, ductility, and malleability to create highly durable machined parts. These characteristics greatly influence the machinability of stainless steel, which is why it is routinely used for high-production equipment and parts. Because stainless steel alloys contain at least 10.5 percent chromium, they offer enhanced corrosion and rust resistance compared to other types of steel. Stainless steel machined parts typically do not require a surface finish.Finally,the fabrication flexibility of stainless steel allows it to be easily welded, formed, forged, and extruded.
NOCK offers precision stainless steel machined parts with superior surface finish, tight tolerances, and long tool life.
Because of its advantageous physical properties, stainless steel has proven to be one of the more popular industrial alloys for CNC machining projects. The metal has a very high tensile strength, and has high resistance to corrosion and wear, resulting in added product durability and part longevity.
