Elyria Metal Spinning was commissioned by a customer in the nuclear industry to complete the fabrication of a retainer ring. This unit was intricate in design, a complicated part that was constructed utilizing our manual spinning lathe, CNC lathe, and machinist's lathe equipment. The 316L stainless steel retainer ring was circle sheared and hand spun to exacting specifications, implementing machining to reach tolerances of ±.003". The part was left with a machined finish, and fully inspected to verify dimensional requirements.

The retainer ring measured 1.25" in length with a 7" outside diameter, and was completed within a 6 to 8 week turnaround time. This part is produced in small runs, with 7 units completed per order and shipped to the customer in Middleburg, Ohio. At Elyria Metal Spinning, we have the capabilities to handle small run to large volume production, manufacturing complex parts in customer specified quantities.
