All Hammer accessories are surface-treated to ensure maximum strength against scratches, action of atmospheric agents and corrosion in high salinity environments such as coastal areas. Pins made in INOX AISI 304 stainless steel are resistant to rust. Fitting bushings and washers included in our accessories are made of black nylon and offer a twofold advantage: they fully cover the pin and reduce friction.
The basic material of Hammer accessories is EN AW-6060 extruded aluminium, which means they are resistant to rust. Our accessories are subjected to a vibratory finishing cycle and a phospho-degreasing pretreatment before being thermosetting powder coated, as per coating or anodization specifications. All steel accessories get another protection pretreatment through electrolytic zinc-plating.
For a good maintenance of our accessories we recommend a simple water rinse and a periodical lubrication. For more information, please ask Hammer s.r.l. for technical data sheets or visit www.hammer.biz.
