Powdercoated ProRail Wire Balustrading Posts
Made to Order to Standard Specification
Powdercoated ProRail posts are fully assembled and powercoated posts and come ready for installation.
They are manufactured from high quality Stainless Steel for a modern look and then powdercoated. ProRail posts features a heavy duty, fully welded base plate and seamlessly welded top plate for easy install. Rivet Nuts are installed during manufacturing (rivetnuts get powdercoated alongside the other material) and a powdercoated cover plate is fitted when purchasing this SKU. - Please note these costs are normally separated under different SKUS you may have seen for the Premium Range. These costs are bundled together in this SKU due to the requirements of powdercoating and fabrication creating a fully finished product.
Specification
- Post Height: 960mm
- No. of Holes: 11
- Hole Thread: M6 RHT Rivet Nuts (RivNuts) (Installed)
- Hole Spacing: 80mm

Powdercoating Charges
Additional Powdercoating Transit Fee will apply per order to help facilitate the additional logistics around powdercoating.
Powdercoating costs are otherwise included in the price of this SKU.
Factory Powdercoating - Made to Order Stainless Posts
New! The team have partnered with a powdercoating company to offer powdercoating on select posts and post fittings for your order. If you are unsure whether you would like the particular colour it is best to order a sample post fitting (subject to availability).
Custom Colours may be available depending on colours held with the powdercoater. Please specify which colour (and code if you have it) you are after.
Non-Returnable. Unfortunately, due to the custom nature of powdercoating and making these items to order they will not be returnable (subject to ACCC).
Estimated Timeline after finalised order:
- Fabrication generally ranges from 3 days-2 weeks, subject to job queues. (Closer to 3-5 days most of the year).
- Transit to powdercoaters once fabrication is complete 1-10 days, subject to batch shipments.
- Powdercoating ranges from 2-4 weeks generally, although subject to lead times and delays outside of our control. This may extend further during busy periods.
- Transit from powdercoaters to Quality Assurance. 1 day.
- Quality Assurance 1-2 days.
- Additional Fabrication (if required). Some products still require some fabrication post-powdercoating. 1-3 days. (Premium Square Posts with Fixed Cover Plates are one example as additional welding has to be completed on the top or base plate to install the newly powdercoated cover plate, otherwise pre-installed covers interfere with the powdercoating).
- Packaging for transit 1-2 days.
- Transit 2-7 days depending on your location.
Total Estimated Timeframe: 4-6 weeks
Please note we are unable to guarantee any lead times for orders, especially when powdercoating is involved. This breakdown is intended to give you a general idea of the logistics around fabrication and powdercoating and not to be taken as a guarantee of delivery dates.
Generally powdercoating orders are best placed well in advance of deadlines for projects.
Please note Quality Assurance may flag items as insufficient powdercoating quality to supply to you. If this is the case we will be in contact with you.
Customer-Organised Powdercoating
If these timeframes do not suit you then you are able to purchase these products in Stainless Satin Finish for you to organise your own powdercoating. However, certain fabrication requirements will eliminate options (see square fixed cover plates above). Please note we will never ship items directly to a powdercoater - they must be shipped to the purchaser directly.
There are a couple of basic but important factors to consider and inform the powdercoater of before you hand them over to them to get them coloured, which we will discuss with you.
- Important Legal Notes
Modifications to a supplied product (e.g. powdercoating) will void any returns regardless of manufacturing, fabrication or specification issues. We are not responsible for any losses or costs incurred this way. It is required that you inspect the product once supplied to ensure it meets what you ordered. If there are any issues, please reach out to us immediately - Do Not continue to powdercoating. Modifications to any product issued incorrectly that would otherwise have been recoverable or replaceable will incur costs by the purchaser. Due to this we require posts to be shipped directly to the purchaser and will not send them directly to a powdercoater or other third party.

NEW! We also are stocking a select range of Black wire and fittings. If you would like this be sure to let us know in the wire balustrade choice (later on in this form).
Powdercoated Stainless - Corrosive Environments
Currently we are not recommending powdercoated stainless to be used in corrosive environments such as beachside applications or areas subject to sea spray and salt. It is also strongly advised to avoid harsh cleaners as these can strip down the coating.
Although the posts are made from Stainless Steel 316 as the underlying material this is only providing structural material composition, not the corrosion resistance typically associated with Marine Grade Stainless Steel AISI 316.
The corrosion resistance properties of SS 316 are driven from the surface of the stainless, which is modified when it gets powdercoated. This passivation layer would typically form of chromium oxide on the surface when the steel is exposed to oxygen and this helps product the metal. The added Molybdenum in 316 also typically plays an important factor in the higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments.
Powdercoating instead modifies the surface layer to apply the coloured coating, stripping the material of its SS 316 corrosion resistance properties in place of new properties. Additionally, it is unknown how corrosive environments affect the colour, wear and tear and durability of the coating although it can be assumed to be more damaging the more corrosive the environment.
Although powdercoating may add its own layer of resistance (and is often used for this purpose), the type of resistance the specific powdercoat (make and model) offers is different for its application on stainless than on other materials such as T606 Aluminium or Mild Steel. So resistance properties you may see on other materials with the same coat may not be applicable on the stainless.
As such we are not recommending powdercoated stainless for use in corrosive environments.
Please note this advice may change in the future as products develop.
