Stainless steel alloys and brushed finishes

Alloys

We are continuously innovating and testing new methods and materials for production. These are just a few of the alloys we are currently using to provide unique profile solutions. There are a number of factors that affect the degree of feasibility of a particular profile, and we pride ourselves on doing all we can to provide our customers with the highest-quality production options. If you don’t see the alloy you require, please be sure to contact us so we can assess the feasibility of your request.

Finishes

At this time we do not provide in-house polishing or finishing services beyond our standard bead-blasted and pickled. However, our products are regularly used in applications, which require they are polished and finished to meet the design specifications. If your project falls into this category or if you are simply interested in other finishes, feel free to let us know and we would be happy to connect you with a company that specializes in this service.

Bead Blasted & Pickled

Our standard mill finish is created by micro bead blasting and pickling our laser fused sections. This finish is typically non-directional and has a uniform matte surface with low reflectivity.

Mirrored

This is the most reflective finish on the market. All of the polishing, or “grit,” lines from the preliminary polishing operations are removed. The look is that of a glass mirror. Sometimes referred to as a non-directional mirror finish, Super 8, No. 9, Perfect No. 10, and even No. 12 mirror. This finish is very popular with architects because of its beauty, flexibility, and durability. This is a custom finish.

Brushed

Brushed stainless typically has a uni-directional satin finish. The brushing gives the stainless a distinct look, as it retains some, but not all of its metallic lustre and is given a pattern of very fine lines parallel to the brushing direction. This is a custom finish.
