Ameristar Permacoat - colored chain link fence framework
PermaCoat® PC-20™
Security and protection are blended into an attractive appearance with the PermaCoat®PC-20™ commercial color chain link fence system.
PermaCoat® PC-40™
Ameristar’s PermaCoat® PC-40™ industrial color chain link fence not only controls access, as one would expect from an industrial fence; it also enchances the beauty of the facilities and properties it surrounds. Using Permacoated framework makes the PC-40™ Industrial Fence the most attractive and durable industrial chain link fence that can be installed anywhere.
Permacoat Defining Features
Contemporary color fence systems from Ameristar® can be artfully blended into the natural environment to dramatically enhance any chain link fence installation, whether the application is commercial, recreational, industrial or high security. A PermaCoat® chain link fence adds the creative flair that reflects a well designed aesthetically pleasing project. The PermaCoat® system features a tough durable finish coat that resists severe weather conditions and maintains an attractive appearance year after year.
The fence framework was designed and developed to answer the need for a more durable, attractive and affordable framing product. It is produced from high yield strength galvanized steel, using state-of-the-art mill forming and in-line welding techniques. It is coated with the PermaCoat® powder coating system, with its double layer of protection (actually powder coated twice). The base coat is a zinc-rich epoxy moisture barrier that is thermally fused to the galvanized substrate and is known for its outstanding corrosion resistance. The finish coat is a thermosetting TGIC “no-mar” polyester with enhanced UV resistance to maintain a beautiful color finish for a lifetime of maintenance-free enjoyment.
PermaCoat® Industrial and Commercial Color Chain Link Framework and Fittings are all protected with Ameristar's PermaCoat double coating process. The steel base material has a hot-dip galvanized coating, specially developed for subsequent application of powder coating. The galvanized substrate is subjected to the PermaCoat® process, a complete thermal stratification (multi-stage, high-temperature, multi-layer) electrostatic powder application system of both zinc rich epoxy and polyester. The PermaCoat® powder coating system results in finished surfaces with unmatched performance. The base coat of zinc rich epoxy powder far surpasses the corrosion resisting abilities of painted surfaces. The "no-mar" polyester powder top coat dramatically increases weathering resistance (color and gloss retention) and reduces scratches and burnishing marks normally encountered during shipping.
Corrosion Resistance
PermaCoat® significantly exceeds paint, polyolefin, PVC, and one coat polyester finishes in its ability to resist corrosion. ASTM B117 test results below show the dramatic difference.
UV Resistance
Permacoat is far superior to PVC in resistance to the harmful effects of UV radiation, as show below using South Florida exposure tests.
Maintenance
Little or no maintenance is required for the fence and gate systems supplied by Ameristar®. The PermaCoat® coated galvanized metal in PC-40™ and PC-20™ framework and the polyester coated aluminum in TransPort™ gates will remain corrosion free for years to come. Damages to coated surfaces can be readily covered with Ameristar’s matching custom finishes (either spray or paint pen application).
