Pickling
Product Overview
The thermal oxides from any heat treatment process and welding mainly Iron Oxides of various states, readily corrode and in almost every application, will contaminate product media with which they are in contact. It is vital to remove these oxides to maintain the surface properties of stainless steel. Mechanical treatments can remove the bulk of these oxides, although these methods can smear the surface entrapping contaminants that may later be released, causing failure to the function of the product. For example, if an abrasive wheel is employed to remove the oxides, it can have the dual action of decontaminating and recontaminating the surface.
Pickling Services in UAE – Stainless Steel Surface Treatment by Hidayath
At Hidayath, we provide pickling and passivation services. These restore stainless steel and other metal surfaces to their original corrosion-resistant state.

What is Pickling and Why is it Important?
Pickling is a chemical cleaning process. It removes impurities and oxide layers from stainless steel or carbon steel. This process is important after welding, fabrication, or heat treatment. It restores the chromium oxide layer, which helps resist corrosion and prolongs the life of metal parts.
