Etched Stainless Steel Sheet Metal

At TBK, we excel in producing precision etched stainless steel sheets and other metal sheets with enduring etched patterns. Through an electrochemical technique, we employ a protective acid-resistant film to partially cover the metal’s surface, leaving exposed areas to be etched by acid, resulting in a dulled, matte finish. Concealed areas remain untouched, allowing for the application of specified colors before or after etching. The striking contrast creates stunning patterns, customizable to achieve desired effects. Etched metal sheets serve as ideal materials for decorative purposes, elevating spaces with their presence on wall cladding, ceilings, furniture, elevator interiors, and more.

What To Consider When Buying Etched Metal Sheets?
When buying etched metal sheets, consider various factors. Choose between standard designs and custom ones, both offering clarity (with standard designs often recommended). Adding color enhances their dynamic beauty. Keep these factors in mind to make an informed purchase decision.
The material’s thickness is a crucial factor to consider. Thicker materials may need specialized bases that can be removed during cutting. Start with a smaller sheet and then move to a larger one for bigger prints. Always account for the metal sheet’s thickness and its compatibility with your intended design.
When selecting materials, factor in their composition. Stainless steel is highly durable, surpassing aluminum and copper, though they take longer to etch. Opt for a metal sheet of moderate thickness for engraving. Additionally, verify if the metal has a protective coating, as it could impact the etching process.
Once you’ve chosen an etching design, ensuring a clear surface is crucial. Utilize a soft, dry cloth and steel wool to remove roughness and imperfections. Next, apply a protective layer of methylated spirits and prepare the surface. Though it may take time, the results will undoubtedly be worth the effort.
Select an etched metal sheet with a surface finish that complements your project. Perfect for jewelry making and metal art, this type of etching offers versatility. If unsure about your metal art skills, opt for strong and durable materials like stainless steel or aluminum to ensure a successful and satisfying outcome.
Material Options For Etched Stainless Steel Sheet
Based on their alloying composition, two regularly used classes of stainless steel sheets are separated during the etching process. While both boast durability, rust, corrosion, and stain resistance, slight differences exist between these grades. Two major stainless steel grades—304 and 316L—are required for the often-used mirror-polished finish.
304 Stainless Steel Sheet

Amongst various commercial applications, Grade 304 stands as the most commonly utilized stainless steel sheet. Its exceptional resistance to rust and corrosion, along with its fire-proof and heat-resistant nature due to its high melting point, makes it a valuable material. The mirror-finished surface adds to its appeal, being effortlessly cleanable and requiring minimal maintenance. As a versatile material, polished 304 stainless steel finds widespread use in bathroom ceilings, walls, kitchen sinks, backsplashes, food equipment, and beyond.

316L Stainless Steel Sheet

To significantly boost corrosion and oxidation resistance, grade 316L stainless steel stands out as the most ideal, earning the title of marine grade stainless steel. The “L” denotes LOW CARBON content, under 0.03%, ensuring excellent welding properties and rust/corrosion resistance. BA and 2B finished 316 stainless steel sheets find common use in facades, indoor/outdoor decorations, food-related tools, and any application demanding superior resistance capabilities.
