Why steel? The unbeatable advantages
Maximum load capacity for racking systems
steel base plates Load-bearing capacities that plastic solutions cannot handle:
Load-bearing capacity range:
- Standard M10: high load capacity per foot
Extreme temperature resistance
Steel offers the widest temperature range all adjustable base materials:
Temperature specification:
- Continuous operating temperature: -40°C to +200°C
- Short-term peaks: Up to +300°C (< 1 hour)
- Cold performance: No embrittlement down to -40°C
- No change in properties across the entire area
High-temperature applications:
- Machines with heating elements (injection molding, extrusion)
- Oven proximity and heat treatment
- Welding booths and hot areas
- Motors and drive units with waste heat
- Outdoor installations (direct sunlight)
Low-temperature applications:
- Cold storage facilities and deep-freeze warehouses
- Outdoor installations (Arctic regions)
- Cryotechnology (with stainless steel)
The only solution in case of: Continuous temperatures above 100°C – all plastics fail here.
Corrosion protection: Galvanizing explained
How electroplating works
Three protective mechanisms:
1. Barrier effect
The zinc layer forms a dense, molecular barrier against:
- atmospheric oxygen
- moisture
- Electrolytes (salts, acids)
2. Cathodic protection (sacrificial anode)
In case of damage to the zinc coating:
- Zinc corrodes preferentially (more anodic than steel)
- Steel remains protected up to 3-5mm from the layer edge.
- Self-healing effect through zinc corrosion products
3. Protective patina formation
Zinc forms a protective patina in the atmosphere:
- First: Zinc oxide (ZnO)
- Then: Zinc hydroxide (Zn(OH)₂)
- Final: Zinc carbonate (ZnCO₃) – stable and protective
- This patina prevents further corrosion.
Why steel:
- Plastics do not achieve the required load-bearing capacity.
- Precision assembly requires absolute dimensional stability
- 20+ year lifespan without replacement
- Vibrations of high-frequency spindles (up to 40,000 rpm)
