Electropolishing: A cleaning and surface finishing process, commonly used for stainless steel, in which electric currents remove all impurities that could cause corrosion. It can also be used with copper, brass, or aluminum parts.
Hot-dip galvanizing: This is a surface treatment that helps protect the part against corrosion. The process is achieved by immersing the part in liquid zinc at about 450 degrees Celsius, so that small particles of pure zinc completely adhere to the part.
