Corrosion Resistant Sprinklers, Finishes & Materials

Corrosion Resistant Sprinklers, Finishes & Materials

While our standard sprinklers are manufactured from brass, we offer several special finshes and materials for maximum corrosion resistance and operating life in even the toughest industrial or marine environments. A common application is salt-laden air in coastal or offshore locations. These include Electroless Nickel Plating (ENP), high grade stainless steels (SS316 and SMO254), nickel aluminium bronze and titanium.

Typical applications for stainless steel sprinklers (where corrosive atmosphere exist) • Chemical and Petrochemical Processing • Pharmaceutical Processing • Food and Beverage Processing • Power Generation—nuclear • Marine • Pulp and Paper • Medical • Textiles • Petroleum Refining • Water Treatment • Salt-water areas • Parking garages • Chemical storage areas • Mechanical rooms • Industrial manufacturing sites

Corrosion Resistant Finishes & Materials

Standard sprinkler heads are manufactured from Brass. While Brass is considered suitable for interior use and will normally give long and trouble free service it is not suitable for external use or where the atmosphere may be corrosive, contains salt, ammonia, chloride vapours or cleaning solutions. Sprinklers can be chrome plated or painted. However these finishes are intended for cosmetic appearance only and should not be used to protect against corrosion.
