Original Press Release:



Medical-Grade Bar and Tube Close Tolerances Improve and Machinability



Precision ground and polished medical-grade bar and tube that is supplied straight, round, and consistent for manufacturing implants and instruments is being introduced by Boston Centerless of Woburn, Massachusetts.

Providing complete bar-to-bar consistency, straighter bar and tube allows faster machining with closer tolerances, avoids bushing seizing, and results in fewer operations, claims the IS09001:2000 certified firm.
