Improve Fit, Finish & Function with Electropolishing Services

Having pioneered electropolishing since 1954 and as the largest electropolishing specialist in the world, our ability to finish nearly any metal alloy, including aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium; our knowledgeable staff; and the ability to run one part or millions of parts sets us apart from alternative service providers.

In close collaboration with clients in the aerospace, medical, laboratory, pharmaceutical, and food processing industries – among others – Able has developed highly customized processes that produce the most precise, consistent and reliable electropolishing results for a wide array of critical metal parts.

Our electropolishing expertise plays a vital role in the strength, corrosion-resistance and fatigue life improvement of flight-critical metal parts for the aerospace industry and in the ability of life-saving medical parts to resist pathogens with an ultraclean and microsmooth finish.

Passivation Services

Passivation is a chemical cleaning process that is designed to remove free iron and other ferrous contaminants from the surface of stainless steel parts. By removing the contamination from machining, stamping, etc., you are helping restore the material to the original mill condition and corrosion specifications.

Passivation is ideal for many grades of stainless steel that have adequate levels of chromium and nickel, can help increase the longevity of many types of metal parts, and can also enhance their brightness.

Able Electropolishing has offered passivation since our founding in 1954 and we offer both citric and nitric passivation options. Note: parts that are electropolished are also passivated as part of the process, with the added benefit of being able to remove microscopic cracks, burrs and other imperfections. Many wanting passivation benefit much more from electropolishing while meeting passivation requirements.
