Who can grind cones in the U.K?

(OP)
We have an enquiry for a component that requires a 45 deg cone ground after heat treatment.  The surface finish required is 16 cla, the annual volumes are approx 6000 on a part with approx dims 2.38" o'all length and 0.500" diameter.  Does anyone know of a UK sub-contractor?

RE: Who can grind cones in the U.K?

We are not in the U.K. but we do this.  Inside or outside?  This can be done with a univeral centertype grinder. This machine is in nearly every grinding room>

RE: Who can grind cones in the U.K?

There are numerous companies here in the UK with Jones & Shipman machines that can offer you a sub con service. Do you want to keep it in a specific region in the UK or will anywhere be ok? Are you looking for a company with any specific certifications or industry bias? If you give me some more details I would be pleased to give you a list of companies that would be keen to quote.
Thanks
Paul.
