DM Metalloys Pvt. Ltd. is a leading manufacturer, exporter and supplier of stainless steel BA finish of 304/304L/316/316L sheets. Bright Annealed (BA) is produced by heat-treating (annealing) in a measured atmosphere heater. It has a mirror like attendance but may have some muckiness and other imperfections. A finish that is designated "BA" has only been bright annealed. A nominal amount of roll pressure (skin pass) is realistic. The process recovers flatness and finish consistency but does not significantly decrease thickness. Bright annealed 304/304L/316/316L stainless steel sheets are sometimes buffed to attain a more mirror-like finish.
