Electropolishing is a finishing technique for nitinol, stainless steel and many other alloys. It is the most effective treatment of nitinol to produce a uniform layer of oxide resulting in a dramatically enhanced in performance, corrosion resistance, fatigue and appearance.

These benefits of electropolishing have been exploited by leading manufacturers in the semiconductor, disk drive, medical, pharmaceutical, and aerospace industries for many years. To realize these benefits however, electropolishing must be properly executed. Pre- and post-cleaning, correct fixturing, proper current density, timing, and bath maintenance are just some of the essentials of good quality electropolishing.
