Accuride introduces Steel Armor coating technology
(Nov. 19, 2013) -- Steel Armor's sharp-edge protection means reduced corrosion on wheel edges, where rust tends to form first. These areas include flanges, hand holes, bolt holes and hub holes on stud- and hub-piloted steel wheels. Steel Armor contains the growth of corrosion by blocking rust at the point of entry when gouges, chips, scrapes and scratches expose the metal.
