One of our local vendors (ex-vendor now BTW ) recently did some 303 SS parts for us. They were just simple stepped reducers that were turned down. The tolerances were fine but surface finish was the worst I EVER saw. I mean, you could see the tear marks where the tool was plowing the material off. The parts worked but since it goes into another part that is sold to the end user, I was reluctant to use them.
So my question is, at what point do you decide to call out a finish? Would you (as a vendor) raise your price just because the print asked for an 80 rm finish?
