Prevent contamination and corrosion, and improve your component’s reliability in the field with a quality finish.
Increase reliability and performance with the right finish
Paragon Medical offers a complete range of passivation services to make sure critical components remain clean and corrosion-resistant. These include aqueous, ultrasonic and vapor cleaning processes. Because even stainless steel can gather impurities during machining, we use ASTM A967-compliant automated passivation processes to remove impurities and protect against corrosion, including Nitric 3 treatment which is particularly effective for hard-to-clean round and tubular medical components.
Micro-size components also cannot have excess surface material around their complex geometries. We use advanced electropolishing techniques to remove unwanted metal to tolerances of 20 to 40 microns to provide a uniform surface finish for the entire part.
And because many precision metal components and medical products may need added strength or hardening for use in high-reliability applications, Paragon Medical offers top-quality heat treatment services. This comprehensive range of in-house secondary operations makes us a one-stop resource for your entire precision parts production.
