Galvanized Steel
G-235 Galvanized Steel: This heaviest commercially-available galvanized steel is universally recognized for its strength and durability. With proper maintenance and water treatment, it offers excellent service life under normal operating conditions.
Thermosetting Hybrid Polymer: This polymerized coating is baked onto the galvanized steel creating a durable barrier. It has been tested to withstand 6,000 hours in a 5% salt spray without blistering, chipping, or losing adhesion.
Polyurethane Barrier: Factory-applied, corrosion-resistant, impermeable coating creates a seamless cold water basin, preventing leaks. To ensure longevity, microscopic chains of rubber-like resin molecules permanently bond tightly with one another and the thermosetting hybrid polymer.
