Mass Finishing
A Great Finish Starts with Smart Thinking
Mass finishing can be described as integrating process, chemistry, equipment, and media. We’ve been helping manufacturers remove burrs, improve surface quality, clean, descale, and deflash across a wide range of needs and applications. Working directly with your team, our engineers will help you identify the best way to meet your needs – saving you time and money along the way. Hubbard-Hall manufactures a full line of mass finishing compounds designed to work synergistically with the correct equipment and media:
Mass Finishing Compounds
Cleaning Compounds
Designed to remove undesirable surface contamination from parts. The appropriate compound is matched with the metal being cleaned & media being used.
Descaling Compounds
Used to remove scale, rust, and oxides from metallic surfaces by using either acidic or alkaline compounds.
Deburring Compounds
Designed to assist burr removal by keeping the parts and media clean. Also provides corrosion resistance to the parts and media when required.
