Grade 316 Stainless Steel for Harsh Environments

Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, this stainless steel Sheffield cycle stand is designed for locations where corrosion resistance is critical. The material is particularly well suited to coastal sites, exposed urban environments, and areas subject to de-icing salts or high pollution levels.

Material and performance benefits include:

• Excellent resistance to corrosion and staining
  
• Suitable for coastal and high-exposure locations
  
• Strong structural performance for continuous public use
  
• Clean, contemporary appearance with minimal maintenance

As a 316 stainless steel cycle stand, it offers an extended service life compared to Grade 304 or coated steel alternatives.

Root Fixed Cycle Stand for Maximum Stability

The root fixed design ensures the stand is securely anchored below ground, providing a robust and permanent installation. This makes it ideal for high-footfall locations where long-term durability and security are essential.

Key advantages of the root fixed cycle stand include:

• High resistance to movement and impact
  
• Suitable for long-term, unsupervised use
  
• Clean installation with no visible fixings at ground level
  
• Reduced risk of tampering or unauthorised removal

This fixing method is commonly preferred for new developments and major public realm projects.
