Sheffield cycle stand stainless steel

Description

Product Description

Stainless steel Sheffield cycle stands are a variation of the popular Sheffield cycle stands that are made from stainless steel material instead of galvanized steel. Stainless steel is known for its corrosion resistance, durability, and aesthetic appeal, making it a preferred choice for certain applications.

The key features and benefits of stainless steel Sheffield cycle stands include:

1. Corrosion resistance: Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor installations where the stands may be exposed to moisture, rain, and other environmental factors. The stainless steel material helps to ensure the longevity and durability of the cycle stands.
2. Enhanced aesthetics: Stainless steel has a sleek and polished appearance that can add a modern and visually appealing element to bicycle parking areas. The clean finish and reflective properties of stainless steel can enhance the overall look and feel of the stands.
3. Strength and durability: Stainless steel is known for its strength and durability, providing a robust structure for securing bicycles. Stainless steel Sheffield cycle stands offer long-lasting performance, even in high-traffic areas or locations with frequent use.
4. Low maintenance: Stainless steel requires minimal maintenance compared to other materials. It is resistant to staining, easy to clean, and does not require regular painting or coating to maintain its appearance or corrosion resistance. This can result in cost savings and reduced maintenance efforts over time.
5. Eco-friendly: Stainless steel is a recyclable material, aligning with sustainability goals. At the end of their life cycle, stainless steel cycle stands can be recycled, minimizing their environmental impact.

It’s important to note that stainless steel Sheffield cycle stands may be more expensive than their galvanized steel counterparts due to the higher cost of stainless steel material. Additionally, while stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance, it may still require occasional cleaning and maintenance to remove dirt, grime, or other contaminants.

Stainless steel Sheffield cycle stands are commonly used in various settings, including public spaces, commercial areas, parks, universities, and other locations where aesthetics, durability, and resistance to corrosion are valued.

Installation

Stainless steel flanged versions: a suitable surface, preferably concrete, should already exist for drilling into and bolting down. For ragged ends: a concrete foundation approx 300mm cube is recommended, depending on ground conditions.

When positioned adjacent to one another, stands should be around 800mm apart and around 450mm from any wall or other obstruction.
