Stainless Steel

Scanacon’s principal expertise is in the management and optimization of stainless steel finishing lines where single (ex - H2SO4) or mixed acids (ex - HNO3/HF or H2SO4-HF-H2O2) are used for preliminary or final pickling of wrought or cast products.

In the stainless industry, no two production lines are exactly alike - subtle differences in product mix, mechanical pre-treatment and mill forms present unique challenges and the success of a project requires a supplier such as Scanacon with extensive practical experience.

Our industry expertise includes optimization and management of:
- hot rolled and annealed stainless steel flat rolled products
- cold rolled and annealed stainless steel flat rolled products
- vertical plate pickling as used in heavy plate
- hot rolled long products including wire rod, bar and profiles
- cold rolled long products
- extruded tubular goods de-glassing and final pickling
- welded tubular goods
- cold finished consumer goods
- chemical milling for stainless cast and forged products
- passivation and cleaning for secondary fabricators
