The Cost of corrosion
corrosion is the single greatest enemy of industrial infrastructure. In the fastening world, a corroded bolt doesn't just look bad; it loses cross-sectional area, clamping force, and structural integrity. #Common Coating Technologies
To combat oxidation and chemical attack, engineers specify various surface treatments based on the environment: - **Metallic Coatings:** Zinc Plating, Hot Dip Galvanizing, Mechanical Galvanizing. - **Polymer/Fluoropolymer:** PTFE (Teflon), Xylan. - **Diffused:** Sherardizing.Selecting the Right Protection
| Environment | Recommended Coating | Expected Life | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Indoor/Dry** | Zinc Plating (Clear/Yellow) | 5-10 Years | | **Outdoor/Urban** | Hot Dip Galvanizing (HDG) | 20-50 Years | | **Chemical/Marine** | PTFE / SS 316 Base | 25+ Years |PROJECT REQUIREMENTS?
