Brushing services

Brushing is created by grit polishing the metal, resulting in a unidirectional satin finish. Not recommended for applications requiring corrosion resistance.

What is Brushing?

Brushed finishing, also known as satin finishing, is a finishing treatment that is applied to metals to create a dull, matte finish. This finishing treatment is typically used on metals that are exposed to high levels of wear and tear, such as door hardware and kitchen appliances. Brushed finishing is also often used on jewelry and watches.

Brushing is a method of using the reciprocating motion of the wire drawing cloth to rub back and forth on the surface of the workpiece to improve the surface finish of the workpiece, and the surface texture is linear. Can improve surface quality and mask minor scratches on the surface.

Technical Properties

Brushing is produced by polishing the metal with grit resulting in a unidirectional satin finish. Not advisable for applications where corrosion resistance is required.

Benefits Of Brushing Finish For Metal Parts

Increased Durability

Brushing finishing creates a uniform and consistent finish that enhances the durability of metal parts. The process removes any burrs or sharp edges, which can weaken the part.

Enhanced Corrosion Resistance

Brushing finishing removes any surface contaminants, which can lead to corrosion. The process creates a smooth and clean surface, enhancing the corrosion resistance of the metal part.

Improved Appearance

Brushing finishing provides a sleek and sophisticated finish on metal parts. The surface is smooth and consistent, enhancing the aesthetic value of the part.

Reduced Friction

Brushing finishing reduces friction on metal parts, improving their overall performance.
