General Machining & Job Shops

Monday it's 4140. Tuesday it's 316 stainless. Wednesday it's aluminum. Job shops don't get to specialize — you need tooling that handles the full mix without constant changeovers and constant headaches.

Job shops run on flexibility. You can't stock 47 different insert grades for every possible material that walks through the door. What you need is a core set of versatile tools — a P20–P30 grade for steel, an M20 for stainless, a K20 for cast iron — that covers 80% of your work. For the other 20%, we're here.
