Fayette Pipe, manufacturers of American-made ERW black steel pipes, has announced the launch of FayetteGuard, an LED UV-cured paint system for black steel pipe exteriors.
This innovative coating process, the first in the United States, employs advanced LED technology to ensure enhanced protection, energy efficiency, durability, and long-lasting performance for the rigorous demands of fire protection, plumbing, and HVAC applications. It also offers an attractive black sheen that enhances the aesthetic appeal of installations.
The LED UV-curing technology that Fayette Pipe employs uses high-intensity electronic ultraviolet (UV) light to solidify photo-reactive substances used in the FayetteGuard paint instantly. This method differs from traditional drying methods, which rely on evaporation or absorption to solidify chemistry.
Mr. Chris Gearing, vice president of Fayette Pipe, said, “With FayetteGuard, we are not just introducing a new product but pioneering a solution that reflects our dedication to durability, efficiency, and environmental stewardship. We are proud to lead the industry towards more sustainable practices while continuing to offer products that meet the high standards our customers expect from us.”
