Stainless steel & titanium turning for demanding applications
Stainless and titanium demand a machinist who knows the materials and delivers the documentation your sector requires. 1TurnAhead turns stainless and titanium parts to spec — corrosion-resistant, biocompatible, pressure-rated — with instant pricing and full traceability.
Why material choice matters here
Stainless and titanium are harder to machine than aluminium or steel: tougher, they heat up faster and demand more from tooling and process. We work with partners specifically experienced in these materials, and capture tolerances, roughness and finish exactly as drawn.
Stainless turning
316L / 1.4404 — excellent corrosion resistance, biocompatible; standard for medical, pharma and food. 304 / 1.4301 — general purpose, easily machined, cost-effective. Finishes: pickled & passivated, electropolished, marine-grade — exactly to spec.
Titanium turning
Lightweight, extremely strong and corrosion-resistant — the choice for aerospace, medical implants and high-end industrial components. We turn titanium with the right cutting parameters and deliver full material certificates and traceability for mission-critical applications.
Precision and certification
We work to ISO 2768 and realise tight per-feature tolerances and GD&T from your drawing, with documented QC. For pressurised components we deliver EU PED-compliant builds. Material certificates 2.1, 2.2 and 3.1 are standard available.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you supply 3.1 material certificates?
- Yes, 3.1 certificates and additional QC documentation on request.
- Can you electropolish or passivate?
- Yes — finishes like passivation, pickling and electropolishing are applied to your spec.
- Do I get instant pricing for titanium too?
- Yes — choose titanium in the configurator and the price appears live.
