In the United Kingdom, one ton of steel is lost to corrosion, every 90 seconds.
Tufnol laminates provide a simple and cost-effective solution to this construction problem with simple insulating components which isolate dissimilar metals and prevent destructive, corrosion-inducing electrical currents from flowing.
Provide insulation between dissimilar metals, thereby preventing electrolytic corrosion
Simple insulating components made from laminated composites can inhibit corrosion by preventing the small electrical currents which flow naturally when metals of different types are close together in the presence of moist air
Tufnol laminates are good electrical insulators and have the ability to sustain high loads
They are relatively unaffected by exposure to outdoor conditions
Tufnol laminated composites have a relatively long life in the type of static load bearing situations found in structural applications
They are immensely strong, rigid and non-metallic
As a thermal break, laminated composites prevent temperature transfer from exterior conditions to interior
Tufnol laminates respond well to machining and can be machined to customer requirements
