Chemistry Engineered for
Stainless Steel Performance.
When working with stainless steels, surface condition is critical. Rolling, forming, welding and general workshop handling can introduce contamination, heat tint and oxide scale which may reduce corrosion resistance and compromise finish quality.
The Anopol range of electropolishing, pickling, passivating and cleaning chemicals is formulated to restore clean, corrosion-resistant surfaces while supporting both in-house and on-site treatment processes.
Anopol also supplies specialist test kits for identifying free iron contamination and differentiating between stainless steel grades 304 and 316.
