Finishing Stainless Steel Parts
| One of the great things about stainless steel is that it looks good on its own but can be enhanced using variety of finishes, depending on how you manufacture your parts. |
| Image | Finish | Description | Available For |
|---|---|---|---|

Standard Finishing (CNC Machining) |
Three standard surface finish options are available for machined aluminum (edges broken, edges broken and light bead blast, or leave sharp) | CNC Machining |
Common Applications for Stainless Steel Parts
Stainless steel makes sense in these applications thanks to its excellent corrosion resistance, strength, and durability. In medical parts, stainless steel is a good choice because it is easy to clean and sanitise.
