From Able Electropolishing Company, Inc.

These parts are machined out of extruded material. The
customer needed smooth surfaces and to deburr the edges of the
parts after machining. Several of the bores were of exacting tolerance,
and dimensional control would not allow for those bores to be
enlarged. As a result, Able® masked specified holes during the electropolishing
to meet the customerĂ­s needs.
