NADCAP & FAA/EASA Certified Precision electropolishing to improve surface finish, cleanliness, and corrosion resistance for critical aerospace and industrial components
What is Electropolishing?
Electropolishing is an electrochemical metal finishing process that removes a thin, controlled layer of material from a metal surface. Often described as the reverse of electroplating, electropolishing smooths microscopic surface irregularities, resulting in a cleaner, brighter, and more uniform finish.
At Aero-Chrome, electropolishing is used to enhance surface quality after machining or grinding, improving both the performance and longevity of precision components. This process is especially valuable for parts requiring high cleanliness, tight tolerances, and superior corrosion resistance.
With over 40 years of experience and NADCAP & FAA/EASA-approved operations, Aero-Chrome provides reliable electropolishing solutions for demanding aerospace and industrial applications.

Our Electropolishing Process
1. Inspection & Preparation
Parts are inspected and thoroughly cleaned to ensure optimal electropolishing results and consistent surface quality.
2. Electropolishing
Components are processed in controlled chemical baths with carefully monitored electrical parameters to remove surface irregularities while maintaining dimensional accuracy.
3. Quality Control
Surfaces are inspected for finish quality, cleanliness, and consistency to ensure compliance with aerospace and industrial standards.
4. Final Inspection & Documentation
All work is documented to support traceability and quality requirements, with inspection records available as needed.
