Turning 17-4 Stainless Shafts
Turning 17-4 Stainless Shafts
(OP)
I work for an electric motor manufacturer. I am turning some shafts 64 inches long down to 2.25 O.D. from 17-4 PHH 1150 S.S. I am using a steady rest, but I am trouble with the shafts being warped and egg shaped after turning. Does anyone out there with experience with machining 17-4 SS have any advice?

It might pay to give these people a call.
Checkout the shaft brochure.
