Stainless Steel & Metal Pickling Services
At Electro-Max, we offer the best form of stainless steel and metals pickling services the industry has to offer. Our metal pickling process involves several steps to pretreat the weld prior to actually performing the pickling process. This pretreating of the weld removes any residue, foreign substances, markings, dyes, rust, grease, or oil. Pre-cleaning is not required for all applications but is highly recommended for most as etching promotes surface adhesion on the metal.
What is Stainless Steel & Metal Pickling?
Pickling is known throughout the industry as stainless steel passivation or electropolishing of the welded material. This process ultimately performs a cleaning feature that involves the actual chemical descaling of the article. In the end, the entire procedure of stainless steel pickling removes metallic contamination and welding as well as heat-treating scales.
