Why Borg Locks’ marine-grade finishes are considered essential for long-term durability near the ocean

Borg Locks’ marine-grade finishes are considered essential for long-term durability near the ocean because they provide robust protection against the intense corrosive effects of salt-laden air, moisture, and harsh weather typical of coastal environments.

Marine Grade Finishes

These finishes, such as Borg’s Marine Grade Pro 2, utilize high-quality stainless-steel internals and specialized coatings that form a protective barrier on the lock, preventing rust and degradation even after prolonged exposure to rain, saltwater, and UV rays.

Marine-grade materials, especially those using 316 stainless steel, contain alloying elements like molybdenum, chromium, and nickel, which significantly enhance resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion caused by saltwater.

This means Borg’s locks are not only resistant to surface corrosion but also maintain their structural integrity and mechanical strength over time, even in the most demanding of coastal settings.

Long Term Durability

With light annual maintenance, you can rely on the continued high-quality performance of Borg Locks Marine Grade Pro Series for decades to come.
