Electropolishing

Electropolishing is an electrochemical process by which surface material is removed by anodic dissolution. Electropolishing removes surface material, beginning with the high points within the microscopic surface texture.

By removing these points, the electropolishing process will improve the surface finish of a metal such as stainless steel, nickel, and Hastelloy, leaving a smoother and more reflective surface. Common parts and components electropolished include tanks, piping, fittings, rods, discs, large parts & surfaces, and more.

Passivation

Harrison Electropolishing provides precision chemical passivation services for stainless steel and corrosion-resistant alloys. Our ISO 9001-certified facility in Houston uses both nitric and citric acid processes to restore corrosion resistance by removing free iron and surface contaminants left behind from machining, welding, or handling. We serve clients in aerospace, semiconductor, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, food-grade manufacturing, and more—helping ensure your components perform as engineered.

Mechanical Polishing

Mechanical polishing is the smoothing of a surface using mechanical tools and abrasives. Mechanical polishing is performed in steps with progressively finer abrasives until the desired smoothness is achieved. The precision polishing process removes material and plastically deforms the surface while it alters the macroscopic and microscopic surface texture.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What does Harrison Electropolishing do?

    Harrison Electropolishing provides specialized metal finishing services including electropolishing, passivation, oxygen cleaning, mechanical polishing, and pickling for stainless steel and corrosion-resistant alloys used in industrial and high-purity applications.

    Where is Harrison Electropolishing located?

    Harrison Electropolishing is headquartered in Houston, Texas, and serves customers throughout the United States and internationally, including on-site field service when appropriate.

    What industries does Harrison serve?

    Harrison supports industries including pharmaceutical manufacturing, semiconductor production, food and beverage processing, aerospace, industrial manufacturing, and high-purity gas systems.

    Does Harrison offer field services?

    Yes. Harrison provides on-site electropolishing, passivation, and related field services for qualifying equipment and facilities.

    What is the difference between electropolishing and passivation?

    Electropolishing removes a thin surface layer to improve finish, cleanliness, and corrosion resistance. Passivation chemically enhances the protective oxide layer without significantly changing surface dimensions.

    Can Harrison work on high-purity process equipment?

    Yes. Harrison specializes in finishing services for high-purity process systems where cleanliness, corrosion resistance, and surface performance are critical.
