Precision steel tube polishing importance!

Precision steel tube defects that may occur during machining. Welding precision steel tubes may suffer from welding defects and mechanical damage after they are completed at low and high temperatures. Depending on the situation, repairs to the machinery will be required if necessary, and certain pickling and passivation steps will be performed depending on corrosion or spots on the precision steel tube. After these finishes are completed, polishing techniques can be selected appropriately in order to brighten the overall brightness of the precision steel tube and to make it meet the general needs of normal use and decoration.
The length of precision steel tube is generally 6 meters according to industry specifications, and the error is within +10 mm. The length of seamless tube is generally variable, mainly 5~7 meters. Precision steel tubes can be made in different lengths according to the requirements of different customers. Relatively speaking, the length can be 3~9 meters, which has little impact on the production cost. Therefore, customers who buy stainless steel welded pipe can customize different lengths according to their needs. The length of seamless steel pipe can meet the requirements, but it may have a significant impact on the production cost.
Precision steel tube is made of 2B stainless steel strip before forming. After forming, precision steel tube has a smooth surface, which is also known as rough surface in the industry. This surface is smooth and bright, showing the primary color of metal; On the basis of smooth surface, precision steel tube can be polished and ground by polishing equipment (180~600# polishing wheel) to obtain matte surface (round sand/straight wire), also known as matte surface, bright surface, highlight, mirror effect.
Usually the precision steel tube mirror effect is only high brightness performance, only the stainless steel plate polishing to achieve the true mirror. Precision steel tube finishes are typically drawn and polished, and are currently suitable for most customers. Some high-end customers opt for mirrored precision steel tubes for more beautiful products. But relative costs will also increase.
