Introduction
When you’re designing a modern pool fence, safety, durability, and style all matter. The spigots — those small but mighty stands holding your glass panels — are what truly define the structure’s strength and look.
For Australia’s unique coastal climate, 2205 stainless steel spigots are becoming the industry’s top choice, outperforming standard 316 stainless steel in nearly every way.
⚙️ 1. The Engineering Advantage of 2205 Stainless Steel
2205 stainless steel is a duplex alloy, combining the strength of ferritic and the corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless steel. This composition gives it a yield strength nearly twice that of 316 stainless steel — meaning better load-bearing capacity and resistance against bending.
💡 Perfect for:
-
High-humidity or coastal environments
-
Long-term outdoor installations
-
Projects that demand maximum safety
Australian coastal homes are often exposed to salty air, which accelerates metal corrosion. 2205 stainless steel offers outstanding resistance against chloride-induced pitting — keeping your spigots spotless even after years by the sea.
✅ Benefits:
-
Prevents “tea staining”
-
Requires minimal cleaning
-
Maintains shine and appearance
🧰 3. Low Maintenance, High Endurance
Unlike other materials, 2205 spigots don’t require frequent polishing or special care. A gentle wash with water and mild detergent is all it takes to maintain their premium look — saving both time and cost for homeowners.
⚖️ 4. Compliant and Reliable for Pool Safety
Every pool fence in Australia must comply with AS1926.1 standards. 2205 stainless steel spigots not only meet but exceed these requirements — ensuring stability, safety, and long-term compliance.
