Stainless Steel Cutting
Our 6 powerful CNC laser cutting machines are running 24 hours a day, capable to profile a wide range of stainless steel grades and alloys in thicknesses up to 50mm. We have a selection of Stainless Steel in stock and if not, we can easily source it for you.
One of the most popular and versatile metals on the market, stainless steel is more expensive than other forms of steel but it’s strength, corrosion resistance and high quality finishes make it widely used within numerous industries throughout the world. We’ve cut stainless steel sheets for medical industries, design and architecture clients and we’ve even profiled male grooming products out of it!
We keep a wide range of stainless steel grades and thicknesses in stock, however If we don’t have a material in stock, we can usually source it within 24 hours. We can also cut your free issue material. Test certificates can be supplied when requested.
Regardless of your requirement, our 6 flat bed laser cutting machines and automation system allows us to cut around the clock ensuring a short lead time from drawing to delivery. Contact us today for a no-obligation quote.

Cutting Edge Quality
Laser cutting stainless steel provides a smooth finish quality, although this is sometimes degraded slightly on thicker sheets. As we shroud the laser in Nitrogen gases, it prevents oxidisation ensuring we achieve a clean, blemish free cut, ready for welding without any extra machining.
Grades
We’re able to laser cut stainless steel in all grades, some of the more common grades we get asked to cut include:
- SS304 / 1.4301 Austenitic
- SS304L / 1.4307 Austenitic
- SS316 / 1.4401 Austenitic
- SS316L / 1.4404 Austenitic
- 3CR12 / Nirosta 4003 / 1.4003 Ferritic
We also offer laser profiling of specialist stainless steels such as:
- 316Ti
- 321 / S32100
- SS316 / 1.4401 Austenitic
- 430 / 1.4016 Ferritic
- Duplex
- Super Duplex
- Zeron
- Shim Steel
We are laser cutting more and more nickel based, stainless steel alloys, also know as “exotic metals” including:
- Inconel Alloy 625
- Incoloy Alloy 800/800H
- Incoloy Alloy 825
- Hastelloy Steel
If the stainless steel grade you require is not in this list, we should still be able to source and cut it. Please contact us with your exact grade requirements.
Typical applications:
Due to it’s versatility, stainless steel can be used for a huge range of applications. Including, but not limited to:
- Domestic (cutlery, sinks, razor and knife blades)
- Architectural/Civil Engineering (steel furniture, structural sections, decorative panels)
- Oil, Gas and Petrochemical
- Medical (surgical equipment, hospital equipment)
- Hospitality (catering equipment, brewing, distilling)
- Storage (water storage tanks, garage doors)
