Pickling and Passivation of Stainless Steel
Pickling and passivation is a specialized chemical treatment used to clean and restore stainless steel surfaces after fabrication or welding. At M.S. Industrial Services, we provide effective pickling and passivation solutions that remove surface contaminants while improving corrosion resistance and surface cleanliness.
Our Pickling and Passivation Process
The process begins with pickling to remove heat tint, oxides, weld discoloration, scale, and surface impurities from stainless steel. This is followed by passivation, which forms a protective oxide layer on the surface, enhancing corrosion resistance and restoring the material’s natural protective properties.
Key Benefits
- Removes weld discoloration, oxides, and surface contamination
