316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel stands out as the ultimate choice for use in high corrosion, salt spray, and chlorine affected environments, particularly in harsh climate conditions. These are common conditions where Rainware Outdoor Showers are found.
Renowned for its exceptional durability, resistance to corrosion, and longevity, this superior material offers unparalleled performance and reliability in these locations.
One of the key reasons why 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel excels in harsh conditions is its unique composition. This type of stainless steel contains a higher percentage of chromium, molybdenum, and nickel compared to standard grades, making it highly resistant to corrosion, pitting, and rust formation. The addition of molybdenum enhances its ability to withstand chloride ions, which are prevalent in saltwater and chlorinated environments, thus making it ideal for marine and coastal applications.
316 Stainless steel exhibits excellent resistance to salt spray, a common issue in coastal regions where exposure to seawater can lead to accelerated corrosion of metals and places you are likely to find Rainware Outdoor Showers. Its superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion ensures long-term performance and minimal maintenance requirements, even in harsh coastal climates.
In addition to its corrosion resistance, 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel offers exceptional strength and toughness, making it capable of withstanding extreme weather conditions, high mechanical stress, and frequent exposure to UV radiation without compromising its structural integrity. This makes it the ideal choice for our range of Rainware Outdoor Showers, Tapware and Waterware.
With its sleek, brushed satin finish and timeless appearance, it not only withstands the rigours of harsh climates but also adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any outdoor poolside or beachside setting.
