How to Produce Stainless Steel Pipes to Mirror Finish?

. Sanding

The process of sanding stainless steel pipe to a mirror finish is very similar to that of polishing other metals. The grade of sand wheel that is used depends on the original finish of the metal. For normal mill-finished stainless, 120 grit is usually best. For other types of stainless, you can use 240, 320, 400, 800, or higher grit sand wheel.
Once the pipe has reached the desired level of shine, it is time to apply the polishing compound. You will need a large amount of this compound. For localized spots, you can use a coarser grit. Then, you can move to higher grits to make the surface mirror-like.

. Polishing

Polishing stainless steel pipe to a mirror finish is a process used to achieve a glossy, reflective surface. The goal is to remove surface imperfections, including fine wear marks, and produce a mirror-like finish. Polishing stainless steel produces an even surface and eliminates crevices, making cleaning much easier.

The most important aspect of producing NO.8 mirror stainless steel pipes is  polishing and raw materials. The selection of raw materials determines the quality of the product, and the polishing technology and experience determine whether the product can ultimately achieve the mirror effect.
