EP Stainless Steel Tubes

Product Detail

EP stainless steel tubes

Electropolished stainless tubes are used for ultra high purity applications. To obtain a perfect electropolished internal surface, the raw materials, bright annealed tubes, need to be meticulously selected to ensure the internal surface is suitable for electropolishing and packaged in a high cleanness room. Surface finish is Ra 0.1 µm and better.
