SCA Testing

The testing standard at Scanstrut is encapsulated by the acronym SCA, which stands for Safe, Certified, and Approved. With over 35 years of experience and expertise in designing products for outdoor use, Scanstrut design products to be able to thrive in the harshest of outdoor environments.

Before any product is released, it must pass through the rigorous testing program which involves assessments in electrical, mechanical, U.V., corrosion, thermal, and waterproof categories. To ensure the highest level of accuracy, testing is conducted both internally and by independent ISO accredited test houses.

This commitment to quality has earned Scanstrut the approval of renowned names such as Mercury Marine, Grady White Boats, Boston Whaler, Winnebago, Airstream and many more. To learn more about the SCA testing program and certifications, get in touch.

On Water Test

Dynamic on water testing in harsh coastal conditions. Mounted to a test vessel to evaluate its performance in rough sea states.

Shaker Table Test

Shock testing in X / Y / Z and +/- axis at 5G increments up to 30G to evaluate the products strength, particularly relevant for our Radar mounts.

Corrosion Test

100-hours of a special formula salt spray that simulates accelerated marine environmental effects on the product.

FEA Analysis

Finite Element Analysis, simulates the behaviour of the design in virtual conditions to allow us to optimise the design before prototyping and physical testing.

IP Test

Water and dust protection under test laboratory conditions to international IP standards. We test between IPX4 (waterjet) and IP68 (submersion).

30G Shock Test

Shock testing at 30G (30 times the force of gravity) to evaluate strength, particularly relevant for our Radar mounts and other powerboat products.

Impact Test

Drop tests to assess the impact of items falling onto our products and ensure they can withstand impacts while being used as intended.

Material Test

Positive Material Identification (PMI) ensures consistent quality of 316 Stainless Steel and Aluminium products. This controls strength and environmental performance.
