Millard PassPRO In-House Passivation

Millard PassPRO, our large "In-House" Passivation operation, is available for our customers' fabricated items. We place a high priority on Sanitation in both our designs and fabrication processes which is why we have incorporated this process as a standard and can be found in our "Safety and Sanitation Design Standards".   Passivation treatment is intended to improve the surface condition of stainless steel by dissolving iron that has been embedded in the surface during forming or machining. If allowed to remain, the iron can corrode and give the appearance of rust spots on the stainless steel.  Passivation restores the original corrosion-resistant surface by forming a thin, transparent oxide film.  Passivation is the preferred method for the sanitary durability of stainless steel.
