Stainless steel finish line
www.siouxchief.com
Floor drain and cleanout are now available for purchase. Stainless Steel Finish Line™ products are cast/machined Type 304 stainless steel and have 3" or 4" no-hub connections. Stainless steel’s superior corrosion resistance makes it suitable for applications where harsh fluids may be present, as in breweries, chemical/textile plants, dairies, or laboratories. Stainless steel also provides a more sanitary surface than other materials, making it a common choice for commercial/restaurant kitchens, health care facilities, or food processing plants. Finally, the clean, durable, soft-silver appearance of the “shot-blasted” finished tops is perfect for areas where aesthetics are important. Sioux Chief.
