With extensive product lines these finishes are also available on coil, blanks, profiles, flat bar, angle and square / rectangular tube.

Brushed Finishes

Available up to 1500mm wide our SatinWeb uses a ScotchBrite Type media to produce a long grain surface finish.

SatinWeb

A SatinWeb Finish does not remove any surface stock or defects and the substrate should be chosen accordingly.

On standard mill produced sheet the surface is approximately 0.25µm Ra conforming to the BS EN 10088-2 2J Finish.

We can apply a SatinWeb Finish onto Sheet only with a maximum width of 1500mm.
