Recommended materials
Stainless Steel 303
The machinist's stainless: sulfur additions cut machining cost ~30% versus 304 on turned parts.
Brass C360 (Free-Machining)
The machinability benchmark itself: fastest cycle times in the shop, naturally low-friction.
Stainless Steel 316L
Marine and medical stainless: molybdenum chemistry that shrugs off chlorides and sterilization cycles.
Titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V)
Half the weight of steel at full strength, bio-inert, corrosion-proof — and priced accordingly.
