Stainless Steel Etching Service for Custom Etched Ultra Thin Metal Shims and Gaskets
As a professional photo chemical etching manufacturer, we specialize in producing custom ultra-thin stainless steel shims and precision gaskets with burr-free edges, tight tolerances, and complex geometries. Our stainless steel etching service is ideal for industries requiring high precision, repeatability, and stress-free components.
Unlike stamping or laser cutting, chemical etching removes material without mechanical force or heat, ensuring no deformation, no micro-cracks, and no tool wear. This makes it the perfect solution for ultra-thin metal parts ranging from prototype quantities to high-volume production.

✔ Burr-Free & Smooth Edges – No secondary deburring required
✔ Stress-Free Process – No heat-affected zones or distortion
✔ Ultra-Thin Capability – Ideal for 0.02mm–0.5mm thickness
✔ Complex & Fine Features – Intricate holes, slots, and micro patterns
✔ Cost-Effective Tooling – Low tooling cost compared to stamping
✔ Fast Prototyping – Samples ready in 3–7 days
Photo etching is especially suitable for precision alignment shims, sealing gaskets, EMI shielding components, and micro mechanical parts.
