In the past some valves were made of bare aluminum. Task Force Tips is using a three-step process to fight corrosion. The cast aluminum parts in this valve have been impregnated to fill the microscopic pores in the cast aluminum. The parts are then hard anodized, and finally powder coated, inside and out, to help prevent corrosion.
