Heimdall Stainless Steel Option

Bumps, scrapes, dings, collisions, they can all happen on a busy construction site or active hire yard.

When these accidents happen your equipment will start to look its age, eventually needing expensive re-work and repaint to ensure you get the best value at resale or your fleet remains an asset to your business rather than an eyesore.

All Heimdall towerlights are manufactured in stainless steel which will help to keep your valuable fleet looking it’s best even when life may have not treated it too well.Stainless steel is an alloy of steel and chromium. With improved strength benefits when compared to mild steel, stainless steel does not corrode, rust or stain. The metal forms a passive, thin film of Chromium oxide which acts as a barrier to corrosion by blocking oxygen diffusion to the steel surface and into the metals internal structure.

The Chromium forms a passivation layer of Chromium (111) Oxide (Cr2O3) when exposed to the atmosphere. Too thin to be visible to the naked eye the Cr2O3 allows the metal to remain lustrous and smooth and impervious to water and air.The process of stainless steel passivation results in the protective layer reforming when the metal is scratched or abraded.

All Heimdall towerlights are manufactured using 3Cr12 Stainless steel which is certified to ASTM A240 UNS S41003. This gives the Heimdall towerlight body panels, bunded chassis, fuel and hydraulic tanks and all structural parts the following;

• Corrosion resistance 250 × greater than common mild steel.• Higher strength than common mild steel — 3Cr12 tensile strength 450–650 Mpa• Excellent impact resistance• Eliminates the need for protective coatings• Eliminates underpaint creep

In short, it keeps your valuable Heimdall towerlights, looking younger for longer. So when you finally part company with your Heimdall product your business will benefit from the sale of a better looking towerlight which will generate a better return. Heimdall towerlights ‘Innovation comes as standard’.
