Stainless steel can rust and corrode if it’s not properly maintained. Passivation is the process of treating stainless steel with an acid solution to remove contaminants from the surface.

Ultrasonic cleaning is a process using high frequency sound waves to agitate a liquid, creating tiny bubbles that remove impurities from surfaces.

Before passivation or any other precision-cleaning process, all system hardware must undergo degreasing. If you’re wondering what degreasing is and… Continue reading What Is Degreasing And What Role Does it Play?

Jet mole rigs are powerful pieces of equipment employing high-pressure water jets to clean surfaces. At Precision Fabricating & Cleaning (PFC), we use these rigs to validate piping systems.

The primary reason for gauge cleaning is to maintain both the visibility and the functionality of the gauge.

Water used for passivation, as well as other cleaning and testing applications in an industrial setting, must always be of the highest purity. High purity water avoids a situation where the water contaminates the cleaning or testing process and compromises its outcome.

Bubble point is an indirect measurement of the largest pore in a filter. More specifically, it is a function of pore size, the wettability of the filter medium, surface tension, and angle of contact.

Cleanrooms, or environmental control areas (ECAs), are spaces that are designed to keep out as much dust and other contaminants as possible. The most common type of contamination during cleanroom entry is human generated particulate contamination.

What is cryogenic and cold shock testing used for? And what exactly does this test measure? In this article, we’ll answer both questions.

Ground support systems, like the kind used at launch pad sites, need to be cleaned to make sure they function properly and to keep all the workers and equipment on the site safe. We discuss what exactly precision cleaning is, how it benefits ground support systems.
