The need for hi purity fittings that are free from any residue, impurities, weld slag or simply surface films of chemicals, grease or other possible contaminants is critical in many industries. The parts may also need to be microscopically smoothed through electropolishing in addition to be cleaned using oxygen-cleaning methods.
For example, for any part that will be used in an oxygen-rich environment will need to be completely free from any type of impurities or contaminants. Failing to remove all of these impurities, even with miniscule amounts, can greatly increase the risk of the component or part failing, even at a joint or within a fitting.
In addition, Massachusetts companies making parts for medical devices or for use in the aerospace, military and defense industries will need to ensure the use of hi purity fittings. This allows the fitting to be perfectly smooth without any surface irregularities that may cause complication with very high tolerance and precision types of applications. Weld slag and burrs can be removed, allowing for an ideal surface before finishing.
Electropolishing
Electropolishing can be used to remove burrs, polish and to provide passivation. It is ideal for any shape and it works by removing part of the ridges on the surface, allowing for extremely high tolerance even on very complicated shapes.
This is an ideal option to smooth and remove the rough surfaces on fittings. These fittings can then be coated with the specific chemical finish to create hi purity fittings for any industry or requirement.
Electropolishing can be used on the vast majority of metals and alloys. A top service in Massachusetts offering electropolishing will be able to refine the surface of any fittings or components to specific industry standards or to your unique specifications for a job.
