Classified by surface treatment

Surface treatment typeSignalment
Bright stainless steel welded pipeAfter polishing treatment, the surface is smooth and bright.
Pickled stainless steel welded pipeAfter acid washing treatment, the oxides, oxide scale and welding slag after welding are removed, improving the surface smoothness and corrosion resistance.
Industrial stainless steel welded pipeIt is mainly used in industrial pipeline systems in fields such as petroleum, chemical engineering, and mechanical manufacturing.
No.1 surfaceThe surface condition after hot rolling or heat treatment is relatively rough and is usually not polished.
No.2D/2B surfaceAfter cold rolling, it undergoes pickling, peeling, cold rolling and other treatments, which have good smoothness and gloss.
No.3 Surface (HL)Polished with sanding belts to create a linear texture, offering excellent smoothness.
No. 4 Surface (BA)After mechanical polishing, a uniform fine sand texture is formed, featuring high smoothness and decorative performance.
No.6 surfacePolish with a sand belt to form a finer sand texture, which is more delicate than that of No. 4.
No.7 surfacePolish with a sand belt to form a finer sand texture, which is more delicate than that of No. 6.
No. 8 surface (mirror surface)After high polishing, it forms a mirror-like effect, featuring extremely high smoothness and reflective performance.
Foggy surfaceAfter cold rolling, it undergoes heat treatment, pickling, and then fine rolling processing to make the surface moderately bright, smooth, and easy to be re-ground.
Fine sand surfaceGround with a grinding belt of 150-180 grit, it has a better gloss and discontinuous coarse texture of 4.
#320 sidesGround with 320 grit grinding belt, the surface texture is fine.
Woolly hair textureContinuous grinding with polishing abrasive belts of appropriate particle size generates grinding patterns, which are mainly used in architectural decoration, etc.
Glossy surfaceAfter cold rolling, it is subjected to bright annealing and then leveled. The surface has an extremely good gloss and a very high reflectivity, just like a mirror.
