MECHANICAL

Brushed + Electropolished

Directional mechanical preparation is followed by electropolishing on a compatible material.

ENGINEERING DOSSIER

Connect brush direction, electropolished result and cleanliness-sensitive interfaces

Brushing and electropolishing create a sequence-dependent result

Confirm compatible material, operation order, directional intent and protected zones.

Sequence and substrate evidence

Record the base material, preparation, operation order and any approved appearance reference so the visible result remains explainable.

Acceptance belongs to named surfaces

Use a surface map for cosmetic zones, contacts, threads, fits, masking and geometry-dependent variation.

Release inputs for Brushed + Electropolished

Specify material, operation order, grain, reference appearance, masking and functional surfaces.

APPEARANCE AND FUNCTION

Appearance, function and substrate boundary for Brushed + Electropolished

Confirm compatible material, operation order, directional intent and protected zones.

Function: Protection, contact, wear or interface role. Use a surface map for cosmetic zones, contacts, threads, fits, masking and geometry-dependent variation.

DECISION CONTROLS

Protected interfaces and acceptance controls for Brushed + Electropolished

Sequence and substrate evidence

Confirm substrate alloy/grade, condition and any preparation specific to Brushed + Electropolished. Compatibility must be checked against the named base material, not a generic family.

Acceptance belongs to named surfaces

Map cosmetic zones, datums, fits, threads, electrical contacts, seal lands and areas that must remain uncoated or require controlled build for Brushed + Electropolished.

Release inputs for Brushed + Electropolished

Specify Brushed + Electropolished by process/standard where applicable, appearance reference, coverage, masking map, thickness or build requirement if relevant, and protected critical dimensions.

PROJECT-SPECIFIC DECISION DATA

Finish map before Brushed + Electropolished release

Confirm substrate, preparation, appearance/function, protected zones and inspection evidence; do not infer acceptance from the finish name alone.

Decision item	What must be resolved	Evidence at release
Brushing and electropolishing create a sequence-dependent result	Confirm compatible material, operation order, directional intent and protected zones.	Reference, texture, color or toolpath
Sequence and substrate evidence	Record the base material, preparation, operation order and any approved appearance reference so the visible result remains explainable.	Protection, contact, wear or interface role
Acceptance belongs to named surfaces	Use a surface map for cosmetic zones, contacts, threads, fits, masking and geometry-dependent variation.	Coverage, masking and critical features
Release inputs for Brushed + Electropolished	Specify material, operation order, grain, reference appearance, masking and functional surfaces.	Coverage, masking and critical features

INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE

Inspect Brushed + Electropolished against the named reference and functional interfaces

Inspect Brushed + Electropolished against the agreed sample/reference, coverage and surface zones; verify masked interfaces, thread function, fit-sensitive dimensions and any required adhesion/corrosion evidence.

Geometry, access, edges, recesses and part-to-part variation can affect the result; use a named reference and surface map.

DECISION QUESTIONS

Brushed + Electropolished specification and inspection questions

What must be defined before reviewing Brushed + Electropolished?

Confirm compatible material, operation order, directional intent and protected zones. Record the base material, preparation, operation order and any approved appearance reference so the visible result remains explainable.

Which interfaces need project-specific confirmation?

Use a surface map for cosmetic zones, contacts, threads, fits, masking and geometry-dependent variation. Geometry, access, edges, recesses and part-to-part variation can affect the result; use a named reference and surface map.

What should accompany release?

Specify material, operation order, grain, reference appearance, masking and functional surfaces. Confirm the intended brushing and electropolishing sequence, use an approved appearance reference and define protected dimensions and functional zones. State any cleanliness, roughness or corrosion acceptance required by the application; appearance and a finish name alone do not establish those outcomes.

PROJECT BRIEF

Brushed + Electropolished finish map and acceptance checklist

Use these page-specific checks to define substrate, preparation, appearance or function, protected zones and acceptance evidence for Brushed + Electropolished. Do not release from the finish name alone.

Pretreatment and substrate — Brushing and electropolishing create a sequence-dependent result

Confirm compatible material, operation order, directional intent and protected zones. Record substrate and pretreatment on a controlled surface map.

Appearance or function — Sequence and substrate evidence

Record the base material, preparation, operation order and any approved appearance reference so the visible result remains explainable. Attach the named appearance or functional reference used for acceptance.

Masking and acceptance — Acceptance belongs to named surfaces

Use a surface map for cosmetic zones, contacts, threads, fits, masking and geometry-dependent variation. Mark masking, fit-sensitive zones and the inspection record required at release.
