Finishing
Metal finishing, the process of altering the surface of a workpiece to attain specific characteristics, is done to enhance surface properties such as aesthetics, adhesiveness, electrical conductivity, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and frictional resistance.
Typically performed after the metal part of component has been fully fabricated, the process can also be used to remove burrs or other manufacturing processing flaws.
Peerless Precision Inc. has been providing finishing services for numerous industries in a wide range of applications for over 40 years. Our reputation as a leading fabricator of metal parts and components has earned us several high-profile clients both locally and internationally.
