Polished Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel
Polished to either a brushed or mirror-like finish, this material is widely used to fabricate decorative enclosures and industrial workstations. The sheets, strips, bars, and adhesive-back foil are covered with a protective peel-off film. 304 stainless steel is a good all-around choice for a wide range of applications. It maintains its corrosion resistance in temperatures up to 1500° F.
Brushed #4 is often called a satin finish; it’s similar to a #3 finish, except the grain lines are finer. Rectangular and round tubes are polished on the outside.

Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel
The addition of molybdenum gives 316 stainless steel excellent corrosion resistance. Use it in a variety of marine and chemical-processing applications. It maintains its corrosion resistance up to the maximum temperature.
316/316L stainless steel contains less carbon than standard 316 for better weldability.

Telescoping Weld-Together Rails
Create posts of varying lengths. To telescope rails, slide one length of rail into the next larger size rail (for example, a 1 3/4" height rail fits into a 2" height rail and a 3/4" dia. rail fits into a 1" dia. rail). Weld the rails together at the desired length to create strong structures. These rails are not compatible with weld-together framing and fittings.
304 stainless steel rails are more corrosion resistant than galvanized carbon steel. They also have good chemical resistance.

Flat and Angled Bolt-Together Framing and Fittings
Rails are drilled with consistently spaced holes for multiple mounting options that do not require machining. Use this bolt-together framing to build guards, tables, and racks.

304 stainless steel channel is more corrosion resistant than galvanized steel. It also has good chemical resistance.
316 stainless steel channel has excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.
6'8" length channel is for use with beams spaced 6 ft. apart. The length allows 4" on each end to attach the channel to the beam.

High-Profile Strut Channel
Up to two times the height of regular strut channel, this high-profile channel is stronger than regular strut channel.
316 stainless steel channel has excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.

Food Industry Strut Rails
![](/prerenderstable/mvPRE/contents/gfx/imagecache/629/6298n12-@halfx_gfin3_1713886506.png?ver=imagenotfound)
A flat or half-round shape keeps water from pooling on these strut rails. Unlike a traditional C-shape strut, these rails prevent the buildup of bacteria and debris, making them ideal for use in sanitary or food production environments. Made of stainless steel, they’re more corrosion resistant than zinc-plated and galvanized steel rails. They also have good chemical resistance.
Flat rails can be mounted on walls horizontally or vertically.
Half-round rails are dome-shaped, so they protect threads.
