Custom 304 Stainless Steel Machining | Rapid Prototype & Production

High-quality 304 SS custom CNC machining services. From 1-piece rapid prototyping to volume production. Upload 3D CAD files for fast DFM feedback and pricing.

304 stainless steel tends to work-harden and generate high heat during cutting. Our advanced tooling geometry, customized feeds/speeds, and high-precision machinery guarantee tight tolerances down to ±0.005 mm (0.0002″):

  • CNC Turning & Turn-Mill Processing: Ideal for stepped shafts, precision pins, sleeves, threaded couplings, and complex rotational geometries.

  • 3-Axis, 4-Axis & 5-Axis CNC Milling: Precision machining for complex housings, valve bodies, manifolds, mounting plates, and curved surfaces.

  • Swiss-Type Lathe Machining: High-speed, high-volume production for small-diameter (Ø1mm – Ø32mm) micro-components with tight concentricity.

  • EDM & Wire EDM Cutting: Precision spark erosion for keyways, deep narrow slots, internal splines, and micro-holes.

  • Deep Hole Drilling, Tapping & Threading: Metric, UN, NPT, PT, BSPP, and custom thread cutting with chip evac control.

  • Surface Finishing Options:

    • Passivation (ASTM A967): Chemical treatment to restore the passive oxide layer and maximize corrosion resistance.

    • Electropolishing & Mirror Polishing: Achieves surface roughness down to Ra < 0.2 µm for sanitary and sterile environments.

    • Bead Blasting & Satin Finishing: Eliminates tool marks to deliver a uniform, matte aesthetic finish.

    • Laser Etching / Marking: Traceability logos, part numbers, QR codes, and batch identifiers.
