54 • HARDWARE&SECURITY PROUD SPONSORS OF THIS PAGE Marine grade door viewers for harsh environments »»UAP has developed a range of products that can withstand the elements like none other on the market. The marine grade door viewers come armed with the perfect materials to stand up to harsh environments. The ‘Nanocoast’ technology is available from UAP. Using 304 grade stainless steel it has been deemed the perfect material and grading for rust free and corrosion resistant door furniture. Nanocoast products undergo vigorous testing to ensure they can hold up in high sea salt concentrated air, acid rain and industrially polluted areas. Each product has been salt spray tested to ASTM B117 for at least 2,000 hours. UAP’s Mark Rushton said: “All the products are made from 304 grade stainless steel which contains only 18% chromium and 8% nickel as well as having low carbon content. The reason we have chosen this grade is the cost to material effectiveness. Upgrading to a 316 grade stainless is considerably more expensive and is often only used when you need a higher resistance to solutions such as sulphuric acid and chlorides at high temperatures. “Alternatively, downgrading to a 200 grade stainless steel will ensure an even cheaper product but in turn will jeopardise the corrosion busting qualities.” UAP strives to make its products as cost effective as possible and has confidence in the quality of its door hardware, so much so that the Nanocoast range has a lifetime coating guarantee. Leaving you with nothing to worry about – not even the cost, it’s all covered. Secure your door from burglars and bad weather.
