As an indispensable key component in street light installation, the choice of materials for street light embedded parts is directly related to the long-term durability of street lights in bad weather. With the accelerating urbanization process, street lights not only bear the function of lighting, but also are an important embodiment of the city's image and safety. Therefore, it is particularly important to ensure that street light embedded parts remain stable for a long time in a complex and changeable natural environment.Street light embedded parts are usually designed to fix street light poles so that they can withstand various external forces, including strong winds, heavy rains, snow pressure and other extreme weather conditions. In order to meet these challenges, the embedded parts must have high strength, corrosion resistance, and anti-aging properties in terms of material selection. At present, the common street light embedded parts on the market mainly include metal materials (such as steel), composite materials and specially treated materials.Metal materials, especially steel, have become the first choice for street light embedded parts due to their high strength and good ductility. After fine processing and welding, steel embedded parts can form a stable connection with the ground and effectively resist external impact. At the same time, steel has strong plasticity, which is convenient for customized processing according to actual needs. However, steel is prone to rust in a humid environment, which affects its service life. Therefore, it is very important to carry out anti-corrosion treatment on steel embedded parts. Common anti-corrosion methods include hot-dip galvanizing, spray painting, etc. These treatments can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of embedded parts and extend their service life.Composite embedded parts, such as fiberglass, have also gradually attracted attention in recent years. This type of material has the advantages of light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and good insulation. FRP embedded parts can not only effectively resist the erosion of bad weather, but also reduce their own weight and reduce the difficulty of installation. In addition, FRP embedded parts also have good anti-aging properties and can maintain stable physical and chemical properties during long-term use.In addition to the above two materials, some specially treated materials are also used in street light embedded parts. For example, the embedded part shell made of materials with strong UV resistance and weathering resistance can maintain a smooth appearance and stable performance in outdoor environments for a long time. At the same time, the internal electrical components and connecting wires should also have good insulation and anti-aging properties to ensure the long-term stable operation of street lights.When choosing the material of street light embedded parts, cost-effectiveness should also be considered. Although high-quality materials can significantly improve the durability of embedded parts, they will also increase manufacturing costs. Therefore, under the premise of meeting the use requirements, it is an important direction for the production of street light embedded parts to reasonably select materials and manufacturing processes to achieve the best cost-effectiveness.In summary, the material selection of street light embedded parts is crucial to ensure its long-term durability. By selecting high-strength, corrosion-resistant, and anti-aging high-quality materials, combined with scientific manufacturing processes and anti-corrosion treatment, the service life of street light embedded parts can be significantly improved, providing a strong guarantee for the safe and stable operation of urban lighting systems.
