Tränkebecken mit pulverbeschichteter Oberfläche

Surface: Powder-coated

With powder-coated basins, an electrically conductive body (grey cast iron) is coated with powder paint and then melted onto the body.

The material is characterised by
  • High impact resistance and mechanical strength
  • good weather resistance
  • Optimum cleaning possible
  • good corrosion resistance
  • environmentally friendly (solvent-free) processing
