The Challenge
A commercial playground equipment manufacturer was seeking an alternative to using traditional hot-dipped galvanized pipe. They were experiencing quality problems during fabrication and wanted to know more about Flo-Coat® in-line galvanized tube.
The Solution
After an open discussion about their fabrication and powder-coating processes, Flo-Coat® tubing samples were sent to the manufacturer for evaluation. They found our product easier to fabricate with no adverse effects to the coatings.
Another big plus was the tubing's clear organic top-coat which was ideal as a primer for their powder-coating process. Since they had never purchased mechanical tubing before, we provided them a chart cross-referencing common pipe sizes with equivalent tube sizes.
Key Benefits
- •Easier fabrication and welding compared to hot-dipped galvanized pipe
- •No adverse effects to coatings during fabrication
- •Clear organic top-coat ideal for powder-coating primer
- •Superior corrosion protection for outdoor applications
The Results
The manufacturer has been a satisfied customer for many years and each year they continue to grow their business. The switch to Flo-Coat® in-line galvanized tubing improved their fabrication process, reduced quality issues, and provided a superior finished product for their commercial playground equipment.
