Rail & Transport Industries

This industry is characterised by high standards of finish on metal especially aluminium. The types of finish are very highly specified to incorporate characteristics such as low smoke and anti-graffiti. Safety is paramount.


Chemical Resistance:

 For use in applications where resistance to diesel, hydraulic fluids, chemicals, acids and alkalis is necessary.


Cost Effective Alternative to Stainless Steel.

 When considering the unsuitability of hot dip galvanising in aggressive polluted marine environments, then , either applied directly over mild steel or as a Duplex system in combination with hot dip galvanising to BS 729 system 316 offers the DESIGN ENGINEER/OPERATOR cost effective and proven alternative to marine grade (316 S31) stainless steel.


Corrosion Resistance:

High quality finishes provide long term protection from aggressive environments for example salt and humidity. This is achieved by a range of performance coatings supported by the appropriate pre-treatments.


Attributes:

• Good adhesion to mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium and zinc
