Can aluminum be electropolished?
Not typically. Brushing is suitable for aluminum, but electropolishing is generally reserved for stainless steel and certain other metals.
What’s the expected finish look?
Brushed parts have a matte grain, while electropolished ones are glossy. Combined, the result is sleek and professional.
Does this process work for food or medical components?
Yes. Electropolished stainless steel meets hygiene standards required for sterile and clean-room environments.
Will electropolishing affect critical dimensions?
It removes only a very thin layer, but it can slightly alter high-precision features. We account for this during process planning.
Is brushing necessary before electropolishing?
Not always, but brushing improves uniformity and ensures cleaner, more consistent electropolishing results.
