1.2 PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
A. Polyester Powder Coating:
1. Salt Spray Resistance: When tested in
accordance with ASTM B117, Bonderite
1000 steel panels, in a scored
condition, exhibit no undercutting after
500 hours in 5 percent salt spray
testing at 95 degrees F and 95 percent
relative humidity. No rusting or
blistering on panel face. Under the same
conditions after 1000 hours, the panels
showed less than 3/16 inch undercutting.
2. Weatherability: When tested in
accordance with ASTM D822, with one year
exposure in South Florida, with panels
facing south and tilted at a 45 degree
angle, a high gloss white polyester
coating retains 88 percent of its gloss
(gloss reading obtained on washed
panels). No film failure.
3. Hardness: 2 H (min) when measured in
accordance with ASTM D3363.
4. Direct Impact: Up to 160 in./lbs.
when measured in accordance with ASTM
D2794.
B. Polyurethane Coating: Tests below
conducted on Bonderite 1000 panels at
1.0 mil dry film thickness, cured for 30
minutes at 180 degrees F and aged 14
days at room temperature (25 degrees C).
Results of each test: Excellent or no
failure.
1. 5 percent salt spray: 500 hours.
2. 100 percent relative humidity: 1000
hours.
3. Water immersion: 100 hours.
4. Lacquer thinner, acetone, MEK,
gasoline, xylene - 20 double rubs with
saturated cloth.
5. Lubricating oils, hydraulic fluids,
and cutting oils.
6. Cold Check: 16 cycles, 24 hours at
100 percent humidity; 24 hours at 10
degrees F; 24 hours at 77 degrees F.
7. Pencil Hardness: H to 2H.
8. Flexibility: 1/8 inch conical
mandrel.
1.3 SUBMITTALS
A. Product Data: Submit manufacturer's
technical data for ornamental fences and
gates.
B. Samples: For each fence panel type
selected, submit one representative
sample approximately 8 inches by 10
inches, showing fabrication workmanship
and selected coating color.
C. Shop Drawings: Submit shop drawings
for ornamental fences and gates,
including plan layout and details
illustrating fence height, location and
sizes of support posts, footing
requirements, gates and gate hardware.
If specifying motor operated gates,
retain the following paragraph.
1. For motor operated gates, include
