Metals that are powder coated can last thousands of hours in durability testing.
The various types of metals found in nature, along with the alloys man has created from combining them, helped shape modern society. From everyday eating utensils to awe-inspiring skyscrapers, metals and alloys

form an integral part of our lives. This reliance has meant that we subject these materials to conditions that cause their demise in numerous ways. The most physically apparent is corrosion.
One of the most common tests conducted on metals and their alloys is the salt-spray test. This controlled test simulates the corrosion resistance of coated and uncoated metals when subjected to a five-percent salt solution. If this doesn’t sound like much, consider that seawater averages around two to three percent. Coated metals typically fare better than uncoated metals; among them, the most resilient are those that have been powder coated. In salt-spray tests, super durable powder coating techniques have enabled metal components to remain unfazed after 2,000 to 3,000 hours in the chamber.

I’ve been thinking about getting some powder coating done on some different things, and I’m glad that you talked about how it makes things more durable. You mentioned that powder coating materials fare better than those that are uncoated. I think that being able to make things more durable is always a good idea, so hopefully I can get some good powder coating done! Thanks for the info!
Thanks for the tip about considering powder coating to protect against corrosion. It would make sense to find something that will protect your items from rust. My husband and I are looking for powder coating, so we’ll have to find a qualified service to help out.
