MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS
Products are available in a wide range of materials including a number of different stainless steel grades, mild steel, brass and aluminium. Cooke Brothers manufacture all products from high quality, fully traceable material sources that when correctly specified will provide the correct level of protection for the chosen environment. The list below covers the standard range of material options.

M - Mild Steel
A strong base material generally used on internal applications rather than externally. This base material requires a protective finish in order to provide corrosion resistance. Many of our mild steel products are sold in self colour (unfinished) state for customers to apply their own finish. We do offer some of these finishes online, such as zinc-plating and powder coating. Other finishes are available by request.
