For repeat bearing production, the supplied hardness matters. Changes between batches can affect tool wear and cutting settings.
At Dexter Steel, we can review the required annealed condition and hardness limits when quoting GCr15. Keeping these requirements the same helps your shop use its established process.
The bar size should also include enough material to remove the outer surface. A smaller allowance saves machining only if the finished part can still be cleaned up fully.
Cut Blanks with Clear Batch Records
We can quote GCr15 cut pieces to suit your production lengths. Include any extra length needed to face the ends.
Where material certificates are required, cut pieces need to stay linked to the correct batch. Marks, labels or separate packing can be agreed before cutting.
For orders covering several blank sizes, grouping the pieces by size and batch makes receiving and workshop handling easier.
