Medical injection nozzle in 316L stainless steel, centring flange and mounting bracket — Alésage XC Medical injection nozzle, three-quarter view — Alésage XC Detail of the centring flange and the mirror-polished bore — Alésage XC Medical injection nozzle held in the hand, part to scale — Alésage XC
Medical · Class IIb device

Medical injection nozzle with mounting bracket

The tapered bore, the part's main function, guides the injection flow and seals it. The IT7 tolerance was achieved directly by CNC turning, with no rework or grinding. Mirror polishing was entrusted to a specialist partner: Ra 0.8 µm required, Ra 0.2 µm achieved. Each part was delivered with its metrology report.
