Brevetti Stendalto together with his Swiss partner Mibag, recently performed an inspection to evaluate the status of 3 chain systems installed "just" 14 years ago.
The quality of our products is clearly visible comparing the photoshoot taken immediately after the placing in service in 2003 with those ones in October 2017.
Who can find the differences?
Drag chain is dirty, slightly worn, and the yellow has a light "vintage look", but can surely keep working.
The 14 years in the open air, U.V. , rain, snow and wind exposition in a hill region in central Europe, did not change the Brylon (PA6) performances.
2 water hoses with an outer diameter 50mm in pressure and a small electrical cable were dynamically protected in the repeated daily strokes in an excellent way.
Our Bright zinc plated channel has been hardly stressed, showing that the surface treatment was really good: its evidence is clearly visible from their aspect, slightly rusted where the irrigation and environmental water insisted the most.
