Electropolishing Stainless Steel
What types of Stainless Steel can be electropolished? When it comes to electropolishing 300 series stainless steel and electropolishing 400 series stainless steel components and equipment, no one does it better than Electro-Max, Inc.
We specialize in providing superior electropolishing for all metals and metal alloys, and for all types of stainless steel, ensuring your parts are free of imperfections, easy to clean, work even better, last longer, resist corrosion, and gleam with a bright, chrome-like finish.
Stainless Steel Grades
Some materials such as 303, 416, 440c pose issues to the electropolishing process because of the chemical composition of the metal and high sulfur contents. Superior electropolishing must start with the material. Quality materials will generally yield great results. There are many variables that could render a part unable to be electropolished to a great result such as inclusions or contamination from any step of the manufacturing process such as heat-treating or annealing.
More than 95% of our business is working with stainless steel – including 200 series, 300 series, and 400 series stainless steel – so we have the expertise, experience, and equipment to deliver high-quality electropolishing for all kinds of stainless steel:
