What is Salt Spray Rating for Galvanized etrailer Leaf Springs

Updated 04/13/2023 | Published 04/07/2023

Question:

These are nearly double the price of a regular leaf spring in the same size. The only reason I would consider these is for the finish on them. How well will it hold up to salt water rinsed off with salt away after every trip and what type of warrenty is offered on it? Also will the finish rub off from the flexing after being used? Thank you.

I checked with our engineering dept and they said the salt spray rating for our galvanized springs like the # e48SR is 700 hours. That is a huge difference and in my opinion easily makes it worth the extra money over non-coated springs especially for a trailer that will see saltwater. The finish will not come off either.
