Description
303 UGIMA UXT" is an improved machining grade produced only by Ugitech, providing the ultimate level of machinability available in an austenitic stainless steel.
303 UGIMA UXT" features the added benefit of increased cold formability when compared with that of standard type 303 stainless steels. The unique combination of machinability and, cold formability afforded by 303 UGIMA UXTM is unprecedented in the industry, and provides the optimum solution for even the most difficult fabrication challenges. Other advantages offered by 303 UGIMA UXTM when compared with standard type 303 stainless steels include increased corrosion resistance in certain media, and ability to withstand moderate amounts of cold deformation with no significant increase in magnetic permeability.
303 UGIMA UXTM builds upon the proprietary UGlMA@ technology with the addition of copper, allowing for unparalleled machinability across a wide range of operations and cutting conditions. It allows for exceptional machinability at both low and high speeds, in cam-driven and CNC machines, and with high-speed steel or carbide tooling. Machine shops using 303 UGIMA UXT" have experienced consistent success regardless of machine, operation, tooling, or cutting conditions. From lot to lot, 303 UGIMA UXTM is engineered to give the same high perfonnance every time without surprises.
Shops have reported productivity increases of up to 130% over leading competitive machining grades, and increases of up to 30% over 303 UGIMA XLTM. Additional benefits include improved chip breakability and increased tool life when compared with standard type 303, regardless of the producer.
303 UGIMA UXTM is recommended for shops that demand consistent machining performance regardless of the machine and tooling being used. The cost savings to be realized through increased productivity make 303 UGIMA UXTM your competitive advantage.
