About the polishing method when processing stainless steel hexagonal rods

Among the current processing techniques, there are three types of polishing for stainless steel hexagonal rods. Let’s introduce them below.

The disadvantages of high brightness are high labor intensity, serious pollution, and messy parts cannot be processed, and their luster cannot be together. Mechanical polishing: There is no paper bag after processing. The luster does not last long and becomes dull and rusty. It is more suitable for processing simple parts, medium and small products.

Chemical polishing: low investment in processing equipment, the ability to throw messy parts, fast speed, high efficiency, and good anti-corrosion properties. Its disadvantages are poor brightness, gas leakage, ventilation equipment required, and difficulty in heating. It is suitable for processing small batches of messy parts and products with low brightness requirements for small parts.

Electrochemical polishing: long-lasting mirror gloss, stable technology, less pollution, low interest, and good corrosion resistance. It is suitable for mass production and is mainly used for imported products and products with tolerances. Its processing technology is stable and the operation is simple.

When processing stainless steel hexagonal rods, there is a process to polish the stainless steel hexagonal rods. Polishing technology is a very important step in the processing of stainless steel profiles. This process is related to the lubrication, durability, anti-corrosion and other characteristics of stainless steel! Now in the stainless steel material processing technology industry, due to different types of steel, the polishing techniques used are also different!

Although general polishing technology has the advantage of high brightness, it also has many shortcomings, such as higher labor costs, contamination, and other parts that are too complicated to be processed.

The parts after mechanical polishing have higher flatness. However, the gloss time will not be very long, and phenomena such as rust and darkening may occur.

The advantages of chemical polishing are low processing equipment cost, the ability to handle messy parts, good anti-corrosion performance, and high speed and efficiency. The disadvantage is that the brightness is low and gas is generated, so ventilation equipment is required to exhaust air, and it is difficult to heat. Suitable for a small amount of debris, other smaller parts are not very bright.

The advantages of electrochemical polishing are that the surface is very shiny, it lasts a long time, there is no pollution, the processing cost is not high, and it has good anti-corrosion properties. Suitable for mass production and processing. Mainly used on relatively high-end products and imported products.

This stainless steel hexagonal bar has low wear, high hardness (45-55HR), and strong resistance. The wear resistance is 1.5-2 times that of rolled steel bars. It has been quenched and tempered to eliminate internal stress. The stainless steel hexagonal bar has good straightness. The rod is curved and not tapered at both ends. Good wear resistance, saving customers a lot of money.

304L is a variant of 304 stainless steel with a lower carbon content and is used where welding is required. The lower carbon content minimizes the segregation of carbides in the heat-affected zone close to the weld, and the segregation of carbides may cause intergranular corrosion (welding corrosion) of stainless steel hexagonal rods in certain environments. 304N is a nitrogen-containing stainless steel hexagonal rod. Nitrogen is added to improve the strength of the steel.

Main uses of stainless steel hexagonal rods: interior and exterior decoration of buildings, kitchen utensils, chemical scales, aviation machinery, construction materials, auto parts, additional electrical appliances, kitchen utensils, lunch boxes, etc., drill and knife machine parts, hospital tools, and surgical tools.
