Passivating steel danglers [India] 

+++

We do barrel-electroplating.(Nickel, Copper etc.) We use steel danglers in barrels. (Not St. Steel) >From time to time we remove plated deposit from danglers to reuse dangler again. We remove coating by hammering them.

Questions:

1) Is there a way to passivate the steel dangler so that removing the deposit becomes very easy?

2) Is there an easy way to remove the deposit instead of hammering the danglers?

Thanks a lot for replying to these questions

You could try electropolished stainless steel danglers.
