Metal Framing & Cable Tray — Superstrut
®
Metal Framing System
Overview
• No More White Rust — With pre-galvanized struts,
a common quality issue is the formation of white rust
on the zinc finish. With SilverGalv
®
, a clear conversion
coat is applied over the zinc to seal it and stop the
formation of white rust.
• Strong Abrasion Resistance — The SilverGalv
®
finish
won’t chip or peel like a green painted strut product.
It stands up to rough handling.
• Superior Corrosion Protection — One hallmark of the
SilverGalv
®
finish is the superior corrosion protection
it provides. In the ASTM B117 salt spray test, the new
SilverGalv
®
finish provided improved protection as
compared to painted finishes or G90 Pre-Galvanized.
This outstanding corrosion protection means more
versatile installations and more service life for
SilverGalv
®
finished products.
• Punched Holes and Cut Ends Are Protected — Unlike
a pre-galvanized finish where bare steel holes and cuts
have no corrosion protection, SilverGalv
®
protects every
portion of the strut. Because the SilverGalv
®
finish is
applied after fabrication, all punched holes and cut ends
share a consistent quality with the rest of the material —
even after cutting or fabricating. SilverGalv
®
will continue
to protect with it’s sacrificial zinc process.
• Paintable Surface — The new SilverGalv
®
finish
provides a non-porous and non-crystalline surface.
Not only does this feature provide enhanced corrosion
protection, but also provides an excellent bond for the
paint of your choice.
• Clean Finish — SilverGalv
®
ensures a finished product
that leaves no residue on your hands. In the SilverGalv
®
process, a zinc finish is applied after fabrication. As a
result, all of the oil and grime that accumulates during
manufacturing gets thoroughly cleaned off during the
plating process.
• Great Electrical Conductivity — Unlike paint or enamel,
the SilverGalv
®
surface offers a minimum of electrical
resistance, so electrical applications are easily grounded
when grounding is needed.

The Superstrut
®
SilverGalv
®
finish is a post-fabrication, 12-step
electrogalvanizing process that applies a clear conversion coat over .5
mils of zinc. This process provides a strong, cohesive molecular bond
that locks out moisture and superior corrosion resistance over standard
G90 pre-galvanized channel.
