 METAL AND TIMBER COMPATIBILITY

Certain compounds can harm coated steel items when they come into contact with (or runoff from). Condensation can occur inside buildings on interior surfaces. Some metals, treated wood, and chemicals are among the materials.
• Prevent coated steel items from coming into contact with any unsuitable materials.

• Prevent rainwater from incompatible materials from dripping onto coated steel goods.

• Verify that any supporting components are either adequately coated or compatible with the coated steel items. Consult our information line for guidance if there are any questions regarding the compatibility of other used items. These materials are incompatible: Lead, copper, bare steel, monel metal, and stainless steel (apart from SUPERDURATM) Carbon (found in pencils and some rubbers), stainless steel cladding, green or chemically treated wood, and some rubbers (like CCA or tanalith treatments)

• Materials with a high moisture content or those that experience dry-wet cycles (such as improperly-seasoned timber)

• Concrete, whether wet and dry

• Vegetable matter; soils

• any substance that will prevent regular exposure to the atmosphere, such as cleaning agents (such as brick cleaning);
