Bevelling Services

At National Stainless Steel Centre (NSSC), we prepare your metal for success. Our CNC-controlled bevelling creates clean, accurate angles for better weld penetration, safer handling, and stronger structural performance.

From thick plate to custom brackets, we bevel stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminium so your parts are ready for welding, painting, or assembly without extra grinding.

Frequently Ased Questions

What is bevelling and when is it needed?
Bevelling is the process of cutting an angled edge on a plate or pipe to prepare it for welding. Properly bevelled edges allow the weld to penetrate fully into the joint, producing stronger, cleaner welds in structural, pressure, and pipework fabrication.

What materials can NSSC bevel?
NSSC's CNC bevelling handles stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminium. Different materials require different bevel angles and edge profiles depending on the welding process and joint design. Our team selects the correct setup for your specific welding application and material grade.

What bevel angles can NSSC produce?
NSSC's CNC bevelling produces standard weld prep angles including V, K, and X bevels. The CNC-controlled process ensures consistent angles and clean edges across every part — critical for structural welding, pressure vessel work, and any joint where weld penetration must be uniform.

Why use CNC bevelling instead of manual grinding?
CNC bevelling delivers consistent angles and clean edges that manual grinding cannot match. The result is faster, more reliable welds with fewer defects, less rework, and predictable mechanical properties. For production work, CNC bevelling pays for itself in welding time saved.

Can NSSC bevel after laser or plasma cutting?
Yes. NSSC routinely bevels parts that have been cut by laser or plasma in the same facility. This single-source workflow saves transport, reduces handling, and shortens lead times. Tell our team your welding requirements and we'll recommend the cutting plus bevelling sequence.

What industries need bevelling services?
NSSC's bevelling serves pressure vessel, pipeline, structural steel, mining, petrochemical, water and sanitation, and heavy fabrication industries. Any project where welded joints must meet load-bearing or pressure-rated specifications relies on properly bevelled edges to achieve full weld integrity.
