Electropolishing

electropolishing services

Electropolishing is an electrochemical process similar to, but the reverse of, electroplating. The electropolishing process smooths and streamlines the microscopic surface of a metal object. As a result, the surface of the metal is microscopically featureless, with not even the smallest speck of a torn surface remaining.

Metal Pickling

Metal Pickling

Chemical Pickling (Chemical Descaling) is typically used to remove oxide layers resulting from welding, heat-treating, and other high temperature operations. All of these oxide layers are generally referred to as "scale" and must be removed prior to Electropolishing or Passivating.

Passivating

Passivating

Passivation is the chemical treatment of a stainless steel surface with a mild oxidant such as a nitric acid or citric acid solution. This is typically done to remove any "free-iron" from the surface of the metal, which enhances the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel surface and accelerates the re-formation of the passive layer.
