Capability
- Pickling support for stainless steel scale, heat tint and surface contamination.
- Passivation support for suitable stainless steel components.
- Part condition, stainless grade and final appearance requirement should be reviewed before processing.
- Can be paired with glass bead blasting where finish expectation requires it.
Typical Applications
Stainless steel fabricated parts, welded parts, machined stainless components, process equipment parts and components requiring cleaning and passivation support.
Technical Notes
Pickling and passivation requirements depend on stainless grade, surface contamination, weld condition, heat tint, final appearance and customer acceptance criteria.
Relevant Standards and Specifications
Work can be reviewed against customer drawings and standards such as ASTM A967, ASTM A380/A380M or customer-specific stainless steel finishing requirements.
