Characteristics of stainless steel cable tray

The entire surface of the stainless Steel cable tray is protected, and whether it is inside the recessed fittings or any other corners where the coating is difficult to enter, the melted zinc is easily and evenly covered.

The hardness value of the galvanized layer on stainless steel Cable Trays is higher than that of steel. Its impact resistance and wear resistance are both appropriate.

Stainless steel cable trays have thicker zinc layers in the corner areas compared to other areas, and some have resistance and wear resistance. However, other coatings at this corner are often thin and difficult to apply, and are prone to harm, so they often need to be protected again.

Even if it is due to significant mechanical hazards or other reasons. A small portion of the zinc layer falls, exposing the iron-based structure. At this point, the surrounding zinc layer will serve as a sacrificial anode to protect the steel from corrosion. On the other hand, other coatings are exactly the opposite, rust will immediately form and sensitively spread below the coating, causing the coating to fall.

The consumption of zinc layer on stainless steel cable trays in the atmosphere is very slow, about 1/17 to 1/18 of the corrosion rate of steel, and it is predictable, with a lifespan far exceeding any other coating.

The lifespan of stainless steel cable trays is primarily determined by the thickness of the coating in a specific environment. The thickness of the coating is determined by the thickness of the steel, meaning that thicker steel is more likely to receive thicker coatings. Therefore, thicker steel parts in the same steel structure must also receive thicker coatings to ensure a longer lifespan.

Due to its beauty, art, or use in specific severely corrosive environments, the galvanized layer can be treated with a duplex system of paint. As long as the paint system is selected correctly and the construction is simple, its anti-corrosion effect is 1.5 to 2.5 times better than that of painting alone and hot-dip galvanizing combined.
