Redcor Maintenance
Redcor Maintenance
SHAPESCAPER steel edging is essentially maintenance-free and offers superior durability with minimal upkeep.
Key Maintenance Points:
- Self-Healing Properties: Abrasions to the rust patina, even back to bright metal, will naturally reform to a protective layer. Redcor steel is not a coated steel, but has protective weathering properties throughout its entire thickness.
- Basic Cleaning: Occasional washing down with water is all that's typically needed to maintain appearance.
- Stain Management: Any run-off from the initial weathering process can be removed with a mild 10% white vinegar solution if addressed relatively soon after staining occurs.
- Sensitive Installations: If installing in areas sensitive to run-off, allow the patina to develop off-site before installation to minimize staining risks.
Description
Description
Transform your landscaping installations with premium SHAPESCAPER® Stakes. Designed for durability and perfect compatibility, these Australian-made steel stakes by BlueScope® offer the ideal solution for securing your garden edging with precision and strength.
Key Features:
-
100% Australian Made: Crafted with superior-quality BlueScope® Steel available in both REDCOR® and GALVABOND® finishes to match your edging selection.
-
Precision Engineering: All stakes feature precision pre-drilled holes that perfectly align with corresponding holes along the full length of all SHAPESCAPER® edging products.
-
Flexible Installation: Choice of holes allow for either the recommended ×3 stakes per length or ×4 stakes per length for specific applications such as straight runs, light soils, or high-traffic areas.
-
Multiple Installation Methods: Can be secured by screwing from the front through aligned holes, or using self-tapping screws in non-aligned positions from either direction.
-
Profile-Specific Options: Lower profile stakes (230mm, 300mm, 400mm) can be installed with a rubber mallet, while longer stakes (580mm, 780mm, 1180mm) may require a stake driving tool or pre-drilling in harder ground conditions.
- Safety Conscious Design: All fasteners should be positioned below soil level to prevent injury during garden maintenance, with above-ground connections using the supplied rivets.
