Aluminum:
Several select picnic tables and benches can be equipped with seats/tops or seats/back of aluminum planks. These planks are extruded 6063-T6 aluminum, equivalent in size to 2" x 10" (nominal) lumber planks. Four structural ribs provide rigid support and strength. The aluminum is clear anodized to specification 204 R1 for a clean, maintenance free finish. All plank ends are covered by an extruded, clear anodized aluminum end cap fastened into place. Table tops are made into single units (at the factory) by connecting the planks with one-piece end caps fastened across each end of the top. Aluminum planks are provided with precision fitted aluminum brackets and galvanized carriage bolts to attach planks to table or bench frames. Use AL in model number for aluminum.

Optional: Aluminum components (max. 12 ft. length) are also available with powder coated mill finish aluminum planks with clear anodized end caps. See Powder Coat Finish description for details.

Thermo Plastic Coated Expanded Steel and Perforated Steel and Steel Plate Products:
Selected Pilot Rock bench, table and trash receptacle products and components (expanded steel, perforated steel, cut/formed steel plate) are finished with a thermo-plastic coating in your choice of available colors. The thermo-plastic coating is PVC free and phthalate free.

The UV-stabilized thermo-plastic coating is applied in a multi-step process of material preparation and finish application, designed and formulated to create superior adhesion. After cleaning, the steel component is heated to 500-600 degrees (depending on the component). It is then lowered into an air-fluidized bed of colored polyethylene powder. This fluid powder fuses and bonds to the heated metal. The component is then baked at high temperature to cure the application.

This complete process of cleaning-heating-fusing-baking tightly bonds the powder to the metal, creating a durable, colorfast finish. The thermo-plastic finish includes a superior level of UV protection, does not support mold or mildew growth, and is impact resistant. We use a textured matte finish polyethylene. The matte finishes are less susceptible to marring and scratching (which is often a problem with gloss finishes).

Expanded steel, perforated steel, and cut steel plate components are assembled and reinforced with formed steel edge bands, angle irons and bars as appropriate to each product design. All components are single piece welded construction.

Two Types of EXPANDED STEEL Top and Seat Designs:

All of the D-Type and V-Type expanded steel that we use is 3/4-#9 material with a short longitudinal stretch. A shorter stretch means smaller “diamond” openings, which leaves more material (steel) per foot. The more diamonds there are per lineal foot is your indication that there is more steel left in the structure. Therefore, the top and seats will be stronger. It is also called the “long way design, non flattened expanded metal”. “Non-flattened” means the steel is “on edge” around the diamonds. This provides a stronger, more rigid material.

D-Type: This standard duty table top/seat design is built for your most common public applications.

V-Type: SNOW LOAD RATED. This design incorporates wider edge banding and more structural supports to create a table built for applications and locations that can be more abusive to the structure. This material is especially suited for high elevation areas where winter snow load can destroy average tables. The V-Type Snow Load design is available on WXT, WXTH, WPTS, XT, XTH and APT Series rectangular tables.

Black Use VB or DB in model no.

Blue Use VU or DU in model no.

Brown Use VW or DW in model no.

Gray Use VA or DA in model no.

Red Use VR or DR in model no.

Green Use VN or DN in model no.

Example: Model XT/G-8DB table is equipped with standard duty top/seat structures for regular applications.
Example: Model XT/G-8VB is equipped with the snow load rated top/seat structures for more extreme applications.

Two Types of PERFORATED STEEL Top and Seat Designs:

All of the R-Type and H-Type perforated steel is 14 ga. with 9/16” diameter holes punched on 13/16” straight line centers.

R-Type: This standard duty table top/seat design is built for your most common public applications.

H-Type: SNOW LOAD RATED. This design incorporates wider edge banding and more structural supports to create a table built for applications and locations that can be more abusive to the structure. This material is especially suited for high elevation areas where winter snow load can destroy average tables. The H-Type Snow Load design is available on WXT, WXTH, WPTS, XT, XTH and APT Series rectangular tables.

Black Use HB or RB in model no.

Blue Use HU or RU in model no.

Brown Use HW or RW in model no.

Gray Use HA or RA in model no.

Red Use HR or RR in model no.

Green Use HN or RN in model no.

Example: Model XT/G-8RB table is equipped with standard duty top/seat structures for regular applications.
Example: Model XT/G-8HB is equipped with the snow load rated top/seat structures for more extreme applications.

Note: Colors and textures may vary. Colors shown are as close to the actual colors as possible. There may be variations in color translations over the Internet and by different monitors and printers used to view the colors. When selecting colors, keep in mind that Thermo-Plastic Coating for tables and seats and Powder Coating for frames may not be exactly the same color. That is, a Blue Thermo-Plastic Coating for seats and/or tops and a Blue Powder Coating for frames may differ slightly.

100% Recycled Plastic Timbers, Planks, Flat Lids and Frames:
Our recycled plastic material is 100% recycled high-density polyethylene and is formed using a combination of post-consumer and post-industrial waste plastics. There is no virgin plastic in this product. Post-consumer plastic has been used by a consumer and then recycled to avoid dumping in a landfill (such as milk jugs). Post-industrial plastics have gone through a manufacturing process but never reached the consumer (such as product rejects or process wastes). On average our product is 80% post consumer and 20% post industrial (percentages can vary). Our plastic components are 100% recycled and can also be recycled again and again. There are no toxic chemicals in this product. Plastic by its very nature does not leach.

A solid color is formed throughout the component and a UV stabilizer is added for ultraviolet protection. This recycled plastic is a dense, durable product, offering a long lasting, attractive appearance. It will not splinter or rot, and is resistant to mold and insects. These components are molded into solid dimensional shapes corresponding to nominal lumber dimensions. Recycled plastic components are available in your choice of colors.
