We can perform electropolishing and cleaning of parts (or assemblies) composed of
nickel, Kovar and/or stainless steel. We can provide this service economically whether
it is for a single piece, just a few parts, or large amounts of parts. Please contact us for a free quote.
Electropolishing is an electrolytic method for reducing or eliminating surface
irregularities without the introduction of any polishing compound particles
into the surface. Our electropolishing process is preceded by a standard
degreasing procedure. Pictured is a stainless steel piece, the left part of
which has been electropolished.
