In Australia, the core safety and aesthetics of pool glass fencing lie in the seemingly unremarkable glass spigots. As the flagship product of spigotfactory.com.au, our 2205 duplex stainless steel pool spigots have become the ideal choice for residential and commercial pools, thanks to their top-tier materials, innovative design, and ultimate adaptability. This article will take you through the core advantages of these products and how a single spigot can combine safety protection with visual elegance for your pool.
I. Why Choose 2205 Duplex Stainless Steel Pool Spigots?
The pool environment is constantly exposed to high humidity, chlorine corrosion, and UV radiation, which can easily cause ordinary materials to rust and break. 2205 duplex stainless steel is specifically designed to address these pain points:
- Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Containing 22% chromium, 3% molybdenum, and 2.5% nitrogen, with a Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN) exceeding 40, it offers more than 3 times the resistance to seawater and chlorinated water corrosion compared to 304 stainless steel. Even when installed in coastal pools in Perth or high-chlorine pools in Brisbane, it remains shiny and new after 5 years.
- High-Strength Support: With a yield strength of 450MPa (compared to 205MPa for ordinary 304 stainless steel), each spigot can withstand a 2000N lateral tension. Paired with 8 - 12mm tempered glass, it is certified by Australia's NATA and meets the AS 1926.1 safety standards.
- No-Grounding Design: Some models feature an insulated coating process (e.g., Insulated Stainless Steel Pool Fence Spigot), which complies with the AS/NZS 3000 standard without electrical grounding, saving AUD 1,000 - 2,000 in installation costs—particularly suitable for old house renovations.
- Customer Feedback:
"We've used your spigots in our beachfront guesthouse pool in Byron Bay for 3 years, surviving multiple typhoons and saltwater erosion. There's no rust at all, and the glass fence remains sturdy."
— Sarah Jones, Guesthouse Owner, New South Wales
