FINISH - BPPCG is an acronym for Black Polyester Powder Coat over Galvanize. In addition to our Hot Dipped Galvanize Finish and Black / White Powder Coat Finishes, we also offer a wide range of our hardware with a BPPCG Finish. Our carbon steel products are hot dip galvanized, cleaned, e-coated and then powder coated as part of the BPPCG process. In the event of surface damage, this multi-layered protective coating minimizes the potential spread of corrosion. The Snug Cottage Hardware BPPCG finishing process is far superior to products coated over raw carbon steel and allows us to offer a wide range of larger hardware options, that are rust free, without the extra cost of producing them from stainless steel
304 STAINLESS STEEL - we use grade 304 stainless steel (or 18/8 – contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel) for the majority of our stainless steel products. This is the most commonly used grade of stainless steel, it has excellent forming and welding characteristics and its rust resistant in most interior and exterior applications. It is less costly to manufacture parts from 304 stainless steel as opposed to 316 stainless steel, but its not as corrosion-resistant. Therefore, we primarily use 304 stainless steel in combination with the extra protection of our superior Powder Coat Finish
