Decoding Finish Codes in the Hardware Industry: Understanding Surface Treatment Codes!

Hello hardware industry professionals! Today, let's demystify finish codes, which are used to identify surface treatment types for hardware products. Understanding finish codes is crucial for effective communication and ensuring surface treatment quality. Let's decode these codes together!

Finish codes represent specific attributes of surface treatments, such as color, texture, and coating type. Here are some common examples of finish codes used in the hardware industry:

1. AB: Antique Brass - AB, AB-Bronze, AB-Copper, etc.
2. PB: Polished Brass - PB, PB-Polished, PB-Shiny, etc.
3. SS: Stainless Steel - SS, SS-Brushed, SS-Mirror, etc.
4. PC: Powder Coating - PC-Black, PC-White, PC-Grey, etc.
5. BP: Brass Plated
6. SN: Satin Nickel
7. ORB: Oil Rubbed Bronze
8. CP: Chrome Plated
9. BRS: Brushed Stainless Steel
10. AC: Antique Copper
11. BN: Brushed Nickel
12. BC: Brushed Chrome
13. TB: Tuscan Bronze
14. SP: Satin Pewter
15. SC: Satin Chrome
16. AN: Antique Nickel

Understanding these finish codes helps accurately identify and communicate surface treatment information in the hardware industry, ensuring products meet design and quality requirements.

Let's enhance our industry knowledge and effectively use finish codes in our work to ensure the highest quality of hardware products!
