Our POWDER COAT FINISH resists chipping, rusting and fading. It
is hard and tough enough to withstand the most extreme weather and
heaviest usage conditions.
We closely monitor each step of the powder coating process to ensure
that Huntco's high standard of quality is evident in every finished
bike rack.
In order for the powder coating to adhere to the metal, the steel must
be free of any scale, paint, varnish or rust. This substrate preparation
includes a chemical wash and rinse. The bike rack is then pre-baked to
eliminate any liquid residue. This is followed by an iron phosphate rust
inhibitor treatment that also primes the surface.
A polyester coating, triglycidyl isocyanurate (TGIC) powder is then
baked onto the prepared bench to a thickness of 6 to 8 mils.
Huntco offers over 50 standard POWDER COAT COLORS. Call for a color brochure.

Huntco's state-of-the-art THERMOPLASTIC COATING is one step
beyond our Powder Coating. It is designed for maximum mechanical
performance, unparalleled impact resistance and UV-stability. Because it
is thicker than powder coating, it is the most 'bike friendly'
finish on the market.
Our thermoplastic coating is a functionalized polyethylene
copolymer-based powder, Polyarmor® G17 by Innotek®. It is
environmentally safe, containing no PVCs, phthalates or chlorine
components that can emit VOCs.
This superior thermoplastic coating comes in 10 standard colors:
Black, Dark Gray, Light Gray, Royal Blue, Sky Blue, Red, Yellow, White, Dark Brown and Hunter Green.
