Precision internal diameter manufacturing

Precision ID Grinding for Custom Machined Sleeves

SleeveMFG manufactures custom metal sleeves for OEMs, MRO providers, and industrial distributors that require precise bore control, concentricity, and specialized surface finishes.

Based in Dongguan, China, we are a direct-to-print manufacturer. We machine the specific sleeve shown on your engineering drawing, using ID grinding to achieve tolerances beyond standard turning capabilities.

From material sourcing and machining to inspection, heat treatment, and coating coordination.

Why grinding matters

Built for demanding sleeve fits and bore performance

Standard CNC turning is often insufficient for components that require high-precision fits or controlled surface characteristics. ID grinding provides the dimensional and geometric control needed for reliable assemblies.

01

Dimensional accuracy

Bore diameter tolerances within ±0.005 mm for precise fits and repeatable assembly.

02

Geometric control

Superior roundness and cylindricity create uniform contact with mating shafts and housings.

03

Surface integrity

Finishes down to Ra 0.2 μm help reduce friction and extend the life of seals and bearings.

04

Hardened material support

Grinding is optimized for tool steels and alloys that cannot be finished effectively with conventional cutting tools.

Manufacturing capabilities

One production partner from raw material to final inspection

We manage the complete production cycle for custom sleeves, supporting low-volume prototypes as well as full-scale production runs.

Dimensional envelope

Ø 500 mm OD / Ø 450 mm bore

Large-format sleeve production with precision control throughout the internal and external diameters.

Precision fits

H6/H7 and h6/h7

Expert execution of fit requirements so components arrive ready for your assembly process.

Grinding tolerance

Down to ±0.005 mm

Controlled bore dimensions, concentricity, runout, and cylindricity matched to your drawing.

Production model

Prototype to production

Flexible capacity for development samples, replacement parts, and repeat production programs.

Process depth

Finishing operations coordinated around your application

Beyond basic ID grinding, we coordinate secondary operations to deliver complete, ready-to-assemble components for demanding environments.

Service paths

Support for both new equipment and repair programs

For OEM manufacturers

Production quality

We provide consistent, repeatable sleeve production for equipment assembly lines. Each batch is controlled against your tolerances and surface finish requirements, with support for material certifications and inspection reports.

For MRO and repair facilities

Flexible volumes

We manufacture replacement sleeves for worn or obsolete equipment. Provide a physical sample or dimensional data and we can reverse-engineer a solution without requiring a massive inventory commitment.

Quality assurance

Inspection data that supports confident assembly

Every sleeve produced by SleeveMFG undergoes a multi-stage inspection process. Our quality lab verifies the critical dimensions that affect fit, sealing, and service life.

CMM inspection

Coordinate measurement for dimensional and geometric verification.

Bore gauges

Internal diameter checks against specified fits and tolerances.

Surface roughness testing

Verification of surface finish requirements down to Ra 0.2 μm.

Profile projection

Profile and form checks for drawing-critical features.

Simplify your supply chain

One accountable partner for turning, grinding, treatment, and inspection

Managing multiple vendors for turning, grinding, heat treatment, and coating adds unnecessary complexity and risk. SleeveMFG coordinates the complete manufacturing sequence, from rough machining to final precision grinding and surface treatment, according to your drawing.
