Is the mounting material rust or corrosion proof?

Yes,...so far in the Dallas, Texas weather which is currently dry, the mounting platform appears to have no rust at this time.

No,The mounting bracket and bolt are not corrosion proof and are rusting. I plan to replace them with something out of stainless steel or Aluminum. Its a pretty simple u shaped bracket and easy to fabricate. I've had the light on since May and its in the weather constantly. Still works great and is good quality. No Corrosion yet on the actual light.

No, it is definitely not stainless steel. It rusted after a single day on the beach.

Yeah it's been mounted on my boat that sat out all summer and nothing has rusted yet

It is a black powder coat paint and made for outdoor use. I would expect that to be the case.

I have had mine for some time now, and I ride all year long in all kinds of weather. No indications of any rust showing up on it so far.

I would say clear zinc plating. I have had them mounted on a trailer all winter and have not seen any rust.

the screws that attach the wheels rust a bit, but i have not had problems with staining of the surface below. the trolley itself is rust proof, and i find this product both attractive and durable.

Hell no! I don't know where you live but in Washington mine is rusting away-the only mount I could find to fit it was a hood mount-I also painted it black before mounting the first rain and it started dumping rust!

It is a ferrous metal bulletin board with no obvious kind of coating on the surface. I would expect it to rust in wet & humid environments. We have ours on the side of a kitchen cabinet, where it performs admirably.

The ends where it attaches to the wall are white plastic and the rod itself is chrome. Yes it is rust proof.

I live in indy and I've had it for 3 month or so. o have seen any rust yet. And its rained a lot so I would say no. plus I've got a friend who's got the same one and he's had it 2 years. his also has no rust.

I'm sure about being rust proof but it has a black metal finish and i have it outdoors here in Arizona. It is under my eaves. I just love it. It is nice and sturdy, was easy to put together. I would definitely buy it again

I believe it is galvanized. I live on a sailboat and use my bike to haul groceries to boat. It has been well over a year since I bought it. No rust yet

I think it's water proof. I mounted mine on the chassis and it is working fine. Only had in use for a few weeks now.

Did not rust, but, I do not believe it is solid copper, maybe an alloy or a good plating. Had it out from May through September in Boston area for two years, no problems.

Absolutely waterproof and rust-proof. Mine is almost two years old and show virtually no wear.

It's totally rust proof, although I have not seen any rust yet, except on the cheap bolts they give u, I switched mine out a month ago to stainless , it's kinda greenish , a dark green swirls with black as the background easy to put together

my impression is that it is a pure copper mesh if you are concerned about rust stains. My installation has been exposed to weather (roof & chimney to keep out flying squirrels) & there is no corrosion after three years.

Have had mine for a year now and no rust. I am thoroughly satisfied with this great product. Was completely as advertised!
