Post Type Profil Alsace
Post type Profil Alsace are used in those plants with the growing form of espalier and in all its variants (Guyot, single or double renovated cordon, arch and a half arch cordon frames, spurred cordon). In different types of profile, thickness, material, surface coating and hook shaping, it is obtained the post type Profil Alsace suitable in all weather condition, under any kind of stress and type of ground. It is indeed possible to carry out a classification of the post type Profil Alsace post with the following parameters: • Type of galvanizing • Section profile and dimensions • Shape of the hooks through which the plant wires are threaded ZINC-COATING The post type Profil Alsace have a standard life cycle of about 25 years. Long life is guaranteed by the heat treatment of hot galvanized coating. The special feature is due to the presence of aluminum among the alloying substances in the zinc coating bath. The natural tendency of aluminum to oxidize and form a passivation layer called Alumina results in a strength increase of the post against aggressive weathering agents. The galvanization of the post is also made for single dive, which guarantees that the treatment covers every point of the post surface in contact with the outside. This material is processed in a continuous way for printing and punching to get the same pole configurations that are used in the treatment for single dive. Since the post are obtained for further processing from pre-galvanized sheets of material, the corners and the cutting edges appear to be unprotected and subjected to adverse conditions. POST TYPES Profile, shape of the notches, thickness and size of the section of the post are the variables by which you can classify the types of post type Profil Alsace. As for the cross section, in all types of post that we will study, it has a 'C' and convex shape with rounded ends towards the inside of the post. There are also veins, along the two lateral extensions (different shape, size and depth) that increase the robustness and confer resistance to bending and twisting of the post type Profil Alsace. The lateral open shape, on one side, avoids the stagnation of water in contact with the ground and ensures a longer life. The post thickness is variable The maximum size of the cross section of the post ranges from a minimum of 54x40 mm and a maximum of 60x70 mm, in order to meet the different load requirements of each vineyard. A further diversification for the post concerns the coupling technique. Post type Profil Alsace offers a variety of hooks, both external and internal, and allows to combine the two on the same post. For further information refer to the specific paragraph. Let us now go through the different post, giving a brief description of the parameters of use. We suggest, for more detailed information, to visit one of our consultants. POST BUTTONHOLES EXTERNAL
