Can You Powder Coat a Strut?

Yes, you can powder coat a strut. The process involves cleaning and prepping the metal surface to ensure optimal adhesion. After preparation, the strut is coated with a dry powder, typically composed of finely ground particles of pigment and resin. This powder is then cured under heat, which causes it to form a hard, durable finish.

Powder coating is a versatile method suitable for various materials, including the steel and aluminum used in Unistrut systems. This process not only allows for a wide range of color options but also ensures a long-lasting, high-quality finish that can withstand the demands of corporate as well as industrial environments.

Benefits of Powder Coating

Powder coating offers several key benefits, making it an excellent choice for Unistrut systems:

Aesthetics
Durability
Corrosion Resistance

Improved Aesthetics: Powder coating provides a smooth, uniform finish that significantly enhances the appearance of strut channels and fittings. The ability to choose from a wide array of colors means you can precisely match your brand’s visual identity, creating a cohesive and professional look throughout your facilities.

Enhanced Durability: One of the standout features of powder coating is its durability. The coated finishes are highly resistant to chipping, scratching, and fading, which ensures that the Unistrut components maintain their pristine look over time. This is particularly important in industrial and commercial environments where the structural components are subjected to constant use and potential wear and tear.

Superior Corrosion Resistance: Powder coating provides excellent protection against corrosion, safeguarding the metal from rust and other forms of degradation. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity and longevity of Unistrut components, especially in harsh environments where exposure to moisture and other corrosive elements is a concern.

Custom Powder Coated Strut Color Options

Unistrut offers a variety of custom color options to suit any branding or aesthetic requirement. Whether you need a bold, eye-catching color to make your brand stand out or a subtle, understated shade that blends seamlessly with your environment, the options are virtually limitless. This flexibility allows you to match the strut components to the exact colors used in your branding, building design, or specific application requirements. From standard colors like black and white to custom hues that match your corporate palette, powder coating provides a practical solution to enhance both the functionality and appearance of your installations.

For custom colors we prefer to use the RAL Color Deck for our palette, also known as the RAL Color System or RAL Classic, is a standardized color matching system used in Europe. It is widely used in various industries, including painting, coating, and plastics, to ensure consistency and accuracy in color reproduction.

The system was developed by the Reichs-Ausschuß für Lieferbedingungen (Reich Committee for Delivery Conditions) in Germany in 1927. The RAL Color Deck is an essential tool for professionals all over the world who need to ensure precise color consistency in their projects. Check out our picture gallery below for RAL color and RAL numbers, offered in a gloss range that is between 80-95%.

Here are some key features of the RAL Color Deck:

Color Codes: Each color in the RAL system is identified by a unique 4-digit code. For example, RAL 9010 is a popular white color. The first digit usually denotes the color family, such as yellow (1xxx), orange (2xxx), red (3xxx), etc.
Standardization: The RAL system ensures that colors are standardized across different manufacturers and industries. This means that a specific RAL color will look the same regardless of where or how it is applied.
Usage: It is used for a variety of applications including automotive coatings, industrial painting, and architectural projects. It helps in selecting, specifying, and communicating colors accurately.
Variants: There are different versions of the RAL system, including RAL Classic (with 213 colors), RAL Design (more extensive with 1,625 colors), and RAL Effect (which includes metallic colors).
Tools: The RAL Color Deck comes in physical swatch books or fan decks, and digital tools are available for precise color matching and selection. These tools are essential for designers, architects, and manufacturers.
