Aluminum or steel ??? Rust proof or not ?

SLS answer my e-mail

Hi Luiz,The Reef Optix is made of aluminum. Several years ago it was made of steel. I will contact Premium and let them know they need to change their site.Thanks for the heads up.

FWIW, my ReefOptix IIIs have both rusted, and I've had them for a few years now.

You should have the old steel version
