ASF combines the benefits of low RMS, non-directional mass finishing with chemical accelerants. The chemical accelerants significantly reduce the process time for hardened surfaces compared to mechanical abrasive methods.
This reduced process time enables you to achieve a very low surface roughness without heavy metal removal and radiusing of the part.

- Achieve low RMS finishes without heavy metal removal or
radiusing
- Achieve negative skew values by removing surface peaks
while retaining micro valleys for lubricant retention
- Refine surfaces to mirror-like brightness and very low
surface roughness
- Reduce friction, lower torque requirements and minimize
surface wear thereby reducing operating temperatures
- Precision components are imparted with a “Run-In” surface
condition
- Increase fatigue life
