Corrosion is one of the leading causes of premature guy wire failure – especially in coastal, humid, or industrial environments where atmospheric exposure accelerates material breakdown.
Bezinal® coating combines zinc and aluminum to provide enhanced resistance to atmospheric corrosion compared to traditional galvanization. It performs especially well in environments with sustained moisture, salt exposure, and airborne pollutants.
In coastal regions, where salt exposure may be combined with wind-driven sand abrasion, coating selection should reflect the dominant exposure condition. Bezinal® is optimized for corrosion resistance, while thicker galvanized coatings such as Class B or Class C may offer additional sacrificial protection where abrasion is the primary concern.
What this means for you:
- Extended service life in corrosion-driven environments
- Slower degradation in humid and salt-exposed conditions
- Reduced inspection and replacement cycles when corrosion is the main risk
- Lower total cost of ownership over the life of the asset
For developers and asset owners, selecting the appropriate coating for the environment doesn’t just reduce maintenance – it helps preserve asset value and minimize long-term performance risk.
