Can this product be installed vertically or horizontally?
Yes, the product can be used for either vertical or horizontal installation.
What are the benefits of the GoldGalv® finish?
GoldGalv® provides a chemically bonded non-porous barrier for protection from moisture and air, offering features and protection similar to hexavalent chromium without its use.
What is the thickness of the PVC coating?
The fused-melt mixed powder PVC coating thickness is 15 mils (0.015 in) plus or minus five mils.
What is the minimum zinc thickness for hot-dipped galvanized channels?
Hot-dipped galvanized channels maintain a minimum of 1.5 ounces of zinc per square foot of steel or 2.5 mils.
Is hot-dipped galvanizing recommended for threaded products?
No, hot-dipped galvanizing is not recommended for threaded products because the zinc coating thickness can disrupt the threads.
Do pre-galvanized products protect raw edges?
Pre-galvanized products provide minimal protection for raw edges after roll-forming, cutting, or punching.
What is the minimum thickness of urethane powder coating?
The urethane powder coating provides a minimum of 1.5 mils thickness, offering excellent resistance to chipping or peeling.
What is SilverGalv® finish?
SilverGalv® is a zinc-plated or electroplated zinc finish where steel and 0.5 mils of zinc are bonded by an electrolysis process.
What types of stainless steel are available?
Superstrut channel is supplied in Type 316 stainless steel, and Type 304 stainless steel may be available upon request.
Does the black finish protect against rust?
No, the black finish is raw steel with a light oil finish and provides no protection against red rust.
