Example of corrosion in a metallic enclosure

$2.5 trillion every year.

That — according to studies by NACE International —- is the annual worldwide cost of damage caused by corrosion.

$2.5 trillion every year.

That’s: “TRILLION!”

That’s also roughly equivalent to 3.4 percent of the global Gross Domestic Product.

But there’s more to the danger of corrosion. There’s the potential loss of life. Loss of business operations. Risk of litigation.

Stahlin Enclosures can help.

Why?

Because the non-metallic fiberglass and polycarbonate composites used to manufacture Stahlin electrical and industrial enclosures provide excellent corrosion resistance. That in turn reliably protects everything that is housed within Stahlin Enclosures.

Here are the facts:

Non-metallic Stahlin® Enclosures provide unsurpassed corrosion and chemical resistance compared to metallics such as aluminum and painted or galvanized steel and are very comparable to that of stainless steel. With non-metallics, enclosure maintenance is virtually eliminated.

Although stainless steels are used in corrosion-resistant applications, the fact of the matter is in some environments they are subject to degradation and damage by pitting, crevice, stress cracking, sulfide stress cracking, intergranular, galvanic, and contact types of corrosion.

Certain non-metallic enclosures, such as composite fiberglass, also offer excellent chemical resistance to halogens (Chlorine, Fluorine) and are acceptable for use in most environments involving acids, alkalines, and solvents.
