With the objective of designing and building a dredge superior to the competition in performance, uptime percentage, and long-term durability, Supreme Manufacturing had an experience base that suggested there was only one corrosion protection system that would qualify--hot-dip galvanizing. 

Complementing its complete line of raw materials conveying equipment, Supreme Manufacturing integrated 25 tons of hot-dip galvanized steel into its eight-yard modular dredge design. Of particular importance was protecting the structural steel of the dredge from the abrasive wear and tear of the sand and gravel encountered during the dredging process. With a 6' x 16' primary screen capable of dredging up to 200 feet in depth, the steel of the dredge is long protected from corrosion and impact damage by the hot-dip galvanized coating. For Supreme Manufacturing, hot-dip galvanizing is economical, extremely functional, readily available, and integral to its entire line of highest quality, durable dredging equipment.
