Your #6 Finish Stainless Steel Manufacturing in China
BWT #6 finish stainless steel is a matte short-wire stainless steel, and it can provide a unique surface artistry to your projects. Especially, its matte finish reduces glare for projects that are light sensitive or require a high level of visual comfort.
BWT #6 finish stainless steel is also extremely durable. They are typically made from 304/316 stainless steel and are virtually impervious to moisture and salt spray, making them suitable for your architectural projects in a variety of areas. In addition, our #6 finish stainless steel is an ideal solution for high-traffic areas, such as elevator handrails, where friction is common.
We offer a customized service for #6 finish stainless steel. You can customize it from the following options, such as size, thickness, shape, etc.

BWT’s #6 finish stainless steel’s grain can hide small scratches, and does not need to be polished regularly like mirror-polished stainless steel, which reduces the maintenance costs.
The short filigree structure disperses the impact of external forces on the surface and is more resistant to abrasion than mirror finishes. So it is suitable for high-frequency contact or in scenarios such as elevator cabs.
The short filigree structure of the surface allows for less finger contact with the surface compared to a mirror finish, making it less prone to residue. So the fingerprints are more visually invisible.
Our #6 finish stainless steel has a matte surface, which can reduce visual fatigue caused by light reflection. It is suitable for light-sensitive areas, such as railroad interiors, etc, to enhance the comfort of use.
Low-profile and luxurious matte effect, fine and even surface, modern aesthetic effect adapted to a variety of decoration styles.
Our #6 finish stainless steel does not release harmful gases to pollute the environment and can be recycled, in line with the requirements for environmental protection.
The surface of our #6 finish stainless steel has no gaps, and oil stains and liquids are not easy to penetrate. You can wipe the surface to remove dust or dirt with a soft cloth daily, without chemical reagents.
BWT #6 finish stainless steel is not easily corroded by moisture and salt spray, and can be used in seaside buildings, kitchens and bathrooms, and other environments.
Both BWT #4 and #6 finish stainless steel are mechanically ground to create texture. But they differ in texture, gloss, and fingerprint resistance.
- Texture: No. 4 finish stainless steel is long filigree and directional; No. 6 finish stainless steel is short filigree and has a fine texture.
- Gloss: No. 4 finish stainless steel will have some reflection, No. 6 finish stainless steel is matte, with almost no reflection.
- Fingerprint Resistance: Although No. 4 stainless steel also has some fingerprint resistance, which is better than mirror-polished stainless steel, it is not as able to hide fingerprints as No. 6 finish stainless steel.
For its attractive appearance and excellent performance, BWT #6 finish stainless steel has a wide range of applications in many industries. Here are the main ones:
- Architecture and decoration: It can be applied to indoor and outdoor curtain walls, for its matte surface can effectively reduce light pollution.
- Stair handrails and guardrails: Their high hardness and wear resistance make it an ideal choice for guardrails in public places.
- Kitchen countertops:304 #6 finish stainless steel is heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant, suitable for the high-heat and high-wet environment of the kitchen. It is easy to clean because of its smooth surface.
- Marine:316 #6 finish stainless steel is resistant to seawater erosion, and can be used for hull components or offshore platforms.
BWT’s #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet is made by physically processing the stainless steel sheet raw material. It is primarily achieved through mechanical polishing. First, coarse abrasive is used to grind the raw material, removing surface imperfections. Then, finer materials are used to continuously polish it, giving the sheet a final glossy, matte finish. This physical treatment gives the sheet its texture without compromising its inherent strength.
#6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet possesses a low-key, luxurious metallic feel while maintaining high strength. It is suitable for applications such as building facades, ceilings, suspended ceilings, and elevator cars. Its smooth surface does not easily attract dirt and dust, making it ideal for high-traffic public areas. Combined with lighting design, #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet is an ideal building decoration material.
Mirror finish stainless steel sheets achieve their mirror-like texture and reflective surface through continuous polishing. #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet lacks the smoothness and high reflectivity of a mirror finish, presenting a soft, matte texture. Compared to mirror finish stainless steel sheets, #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet offers a more understated and luxurious feel. The matte texture also effectively reduces fingerprints, making cleaning easier. Compared to a completely matte sandblasted surface, it possesses a subtle, silky sheen.
Yes, #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet is easier to clean than other materials. 316 stainless steel sheet has a high density, making it difficult for adhesives to adhere. Regular cleaning is simply a matter of using a damp cloth. #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet has a textured surface, so try to clean it along the grain. Remember not to use corrosive cleaning agents, as these will damage the shine of the stainless steel surface.
Yes, just like other stainless steel sheets. BWT accepts customization services for #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet in terms of size, thickness, color, shape, etc. We can even adjust the texture spacing of the #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet itself to your needs. BWT can provide #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet with a maximum width of 2000mm and a length of 12m. We also offer customization of single-curved and double-curved shapes to meet your various project needs.
BWT’s #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet does offer some fingerprint resistance, but this is only visually apparent. For better fingerprint resistance, an anti-fingerprint treatment can be applied to the stainless steel sheet. Regular anti-fingerprint treatment fills the gaps at the molecular level, significantly improving the sheet’s fingerprint resistance. This is especially suitable for high-traffic public areas.
Yes, BWT’s #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet is made of 304/316 stainless steel, a material that is recyclable, even 100% recyclable. It also boasts high strength and a long service life, reducing replacement frequency and minimizing waste and resource consumption. No additional carbon emissions are generated during its use. These characteristics are unmatched by other materials, thus aligning with the concept of carbon neutrality.
Yes. #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet is made of 304/316 stainless steel, which is inherently strong and corrosion-resistant. It is suitable for high-humidity, high-salt, and high-pollution environments such as coastal areas or heavy industrial zones. With simple daily maintenance, the sheet’s luster and pattern can remain unchanged for over 20 years. This characteristic surpasses that of all other materials.
BWT commonly uses 304/316 stainless steel sheets for their #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheets. 304 stainless steel is cheaper than 316. However, its strength is lower than 316. If your project is outdoors, you can choose 304 stainless steel. If it’s used in high-humidity outdoor environments, we recommend using the stronger 316 stainless steel, which is easier to clean and maintain later.
Under normal use, the texture is unlikely to disappear. The surface texture of #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet is formed through physical polishing, and the texture depth is typically at the micrometer level. Furthermore, physical polishing does not change the strength of the steel itself. Everyday scratches will not wear down the sheet. In harsh environments, such as desert areas with strong winds, it is recommended to use a stronger, higher-quality sheet to ensure the texture lasts.
No, they are two different matte finishes. #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet achieves its matte effect through a physical grinding surface treatment. The surface has a clear unidirectional texture with subtle tactile feedback. Matte stainless steel is typically treated with a frosting machine, which fills in the gaps in the stainless steel sheet to achieve the matte effect. Matte stainless steel has a finer surface and a more uniform metallic sheen compared to #6 Finish Stainless Steel Sheet. Different stainless steel sheets can be used to match your needs.
