Perfectly smooth!
Blasted surfaces with a homogenous and attractive appearance
Our perfectly smooth finish ensures less contamination and less abrasion. In addition, thanks to the KMH blasting process, there is no cracking corrosion. The improved surfaces are a real highlight, both technically and visually, and can even meet the high requirements of the food and pharmaceutical industries.⁽¹⁾
And it gets even better: You not only get the high quality of the blasted surfaces from us with short delivery times, but also at no additional cost when compared with our pickled components.
Our standard
Since the 1st of November 2022, we have been delivering our stainless steel products with blasted surfaces as a standard.
The process developed by KMH is unique in the industry, as the blasting agent used is made of high-alloy stainless steel which does not have any surface-damaging structures. This results in a particularly resistant and hygienic surface finish.
Of course, you can also receive your stainless steel products in pickled version, as before, if you wish.
+ More hygiene with less effort
- Easy cleaning of the pipe systems thanks to the low adhesion of contaminants.
- Low downtimes – high system availability
+ Impressive appearance
- Particularly elegant look of your production systems.
- Technical hygiene is also visually conveyed at first glance.
(1) In the case of special requirements for surfaces, especially in the food and pharmaceutical sectors, comprehensive technical advice and coordination from our specialists is required. We will, of course, be pleased to advise you individually and personally on all products and areas of application. Please feel free to contact us: innovation@kmh.net
(2) Measured using the stylus method. Blasted surfaces have a roughness depth of less than Ra 0.8µm. Depending on the length and diameter, the inner surfaces of the pipe remain unblasted, but they also have a roughness depth of less than Ra 0.8 μm. Welding seam areas and transitions, as well as small and attached parts (e.g. levers, flanges, shafts), can have greater roughness depths on the inside and outside. The same applies to production-related processing traces. Our expert & competent team will be glad to advise you: innovation@kmh.net
