Toughcage
Niftylift toughcage is fully UV stabilised for outdoor use in the most demanding climates. However, the
user and machine owner should consider the following;
•
Discolouration of the material may occur; this is a natural aging process which does not
significantly alter the material properties.
•
Degredation to the floor may occur as a consequence of product use and effect of UV exposure.
The toughcage's multi-layer construction means degradation of the top surface may occur over
time without compromising the structural strength of the internal and base layers.
•
The rate at which the toughcage floor ages is dependant upon the machines application and its
country of use (Typical levels of UV exposure). Refer to table below for aging rate applicable to your
specific area.
