Electroless Nickel Baton ADVANTAGE:
If you live in a high humidity environment, the Electroless Nickel Baton is for you. No other commercially available metal finish approaches the total corrosion resistance of Electroless Nickel.
Designed for industrial applications in a maritime environment, Electroless provides increased surface hardness, lubrication and a matte finish. It will not scratch, rust or wear. Electroless Batons have the appearance of stainless steel.
Electroless Batons are well suited to maritime and other high humidity environments. The nature of the finish simplifies maintenance. Electroless Batons give the “quietly attractive” appearance of stainless steel. The matte finish has an enhanced psychological advantage at night. They are the most maintenance-free batons of all ASP models. The finish of the baton can be maintained through use of a Scotch Brite® pad.
• Total corrosion protection
• Stainless steel appearance
• Increased surface hardness
• Ideal for maritime applications
4140 Steel
The Steel used in the ASP Electroless Baton is 4140 seamless steel tubing and is not commercially available in the United States. Because of this, ASP must have a special chemistry or “heat” of steel poured in Germany and then pierced into rounds. This raw stock is then drawn by an American company into tubing that is made to ASP specifications. ASP is the sole source of 4140 steel tubing for expandable batons. ASP 4140 is 25% stronger than more commonly available 4130 tubing.
The Foam Vinyl Grip provides a firm, durable hold.
