Mechanically Polished & Brushed Finishes

Electro-Polishing
Electro-Polishing is an electro-chemical polishing process that removes a small uniform amount of surface material at a controlled rate producing a smooth, bright and highly reflective finish. Electro-polished stainless steel furnishings are highly corrosion resistant, easier to clean, and effectively defy staining or adhesion.

Bead Blasting
Bead blasting completely removes any surface grain or texture and provides a uniform, smooth satin finish.

No. 4 Polish
A No. 4 polish is a general-purpose mechanically polished finish resulting in a fine satin directional grain.

Standard Mill Plate Finishes

2B Finish
With the 2B finish the metal grains are flattened, giving the steel a smooth matte surface appearance.

Pickling and Passivation
Pickling and passivation involves the removal of surface iron from stainless steel using acid solution (mild oxidant) for the purpose of eliminating corrosion-causing surface contamination and encourages the formation of a protective oxide film.
