Electro – Polishing

Electro – Polishing

Electro-polishing, also known as electrochemical polishing, anodic polishing, or electrolytic polishing (especially in the metallography field), is an electrochemical process that removes material from a metallic work-piece, reducing the surface roughness by levelling micro-peaks and valleys, improving the surface finish

Electro-polishing stainless steel is a “reverse plating” process that uses an electrochemical solution to remove the outer skin of a metal part. Electro-polishing stainless steel, especially 300 and 400 series stainless steel, significantly improves a part’s corrosion resistance, leaving it with a lasting bright finish.
