General comments
The coating of the carbon steel S-BT fasteners consists of an electroplated Zn- alloy
forcathodicprotectionandatopcoatforchemicalresistance(Duplex-coating).
Thethicknessofthecoatingis35μm.Theuseofthiscoatingislimitedtothe
corrosioncategoryC1,C2andC3accordingthestandardENISO9223.Forhigher
corrosioncategoriesstainlesssteelfastenersshouldbeused.
