Stainless Steel
Consider stainless steel when corrosion exposure and cleanable surfaces matter.
SURFACE FINISHING
Polishing
Improves the appearance of selected surfaces through mechanical finishing.
A refined visible surface
Specify the result you need.
Identify the faces to polish and the intended finish direction or reference sample. Protect critical edges and dimensional features from unwanted rounding.

Material families to review
Alloy Steel
Compare alloy steels for components with demanding mechanical requirements.
Brass
A copper alloy family used for turned fittings, small components and decorative details.
Copper
Consider copper for parts where electrical or thermal performance is central.
Compatibility depends on the specific grade, geometry and treatment specification. Final selection is reviewed with the project.
A finish belongs
in the drawing, too.
Identify visible surfaces, masking areas, contact points and fits. State whether your dimensional requirements apply to the finished part.
