High-Tech M.I.G. Welding and Jigs Assure High Quality. Unlike some of our competitors, we do not bolt our cages together. Our cages are Metal Inert Gas welded to assure perfect melding of all framing, bars and grating. This eliminates messy splatter common with regular rod welding and creates a stronger, more durable joint. All cages are made in a jig - insuring perfect squareness and uniform spacing every time.
Some cheaper cages use enamel spray paints and coatings of foreign origin.
Other companies using powder-coating may not have gone to the extra expense or effort to insure the lowest levels of zinc possible. When you buy a California Cage, you will know that every batch of USA made coating material is custom made and lab tested to meet our ridged requirement of 10 p.p.m. of zinc or less. After welding, our cage is sand-blasted to clean and pit the steel surface. This insures a better adhesion of the Powder Coating. The cage is electrostaticly charged to insure a thick , even application of the powder-coating material.
