Benefits

The many benefits of electropolishing include the following:

Overall Benefits

• Descaling
• Uniform deburring action
• Bright and reflective finish
• Smooth and passive surface
• Enhanced corrosion resistance
• Hydrogen removal and stress relief
• Removal of weld & heat discolouration

Process Benefits

• Speed and efficiency
• Processing complex shapes
• Absence of mechanical damage
• The use of non-volatile chemicals

End Result

• Reduces maintenance and wear
• Better emissivity in specialised items
• No additional protective coating required
• Excellent surface quality control process
• The exposure of defects, impurities and non-metallic inclusions

Surface Enhancements

• phosphating
• contamination-free
• more uniform anodising
• other conversion coatings
