Finishes
UGINOX® PATINA K44
The “new terne coated stainless steel” is produced in stainless alloy 444 base, which contains 18% chromium, molybdenum and titanium, with an electro-tinned coating on both sides which tones down the natural luster and allows the surface to weather over time to a soft matte gray finish. The tinned surface also makes for easy soldering of complex details.
UGINOX® Patina K44 has excellent corrosion resistance. 5000 hours of salt spray testing have been completed. The Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN) is a measure of corrosion resistance based on chemistry of the stainless steel.
UGINOX® MAT 316L
UGINOX® Mat 316L stainless is produced in alloy 316L with a permanent, durable matt finish perfect for all environments and applications, rural and urban.
Because of stainless steel’s low thermal expansion, stainless steel wall panels and stainless steel roofing made from UGINOX® Patina and UGINOX® Mat will exhibit superior flatness.
