Coating Types, Processes and Design Menu
Galvanizing also called Hot Dip Galvanizing, is a process of
immersing clean, fabricated iron or steel material into a bath of molten zinc to
form a zinc coating onto the iron or steel surface. The zinc coating protects
the surface against corrosion by providing protection to the iron or steel from
the environment elements causing galvanic corrosion.
Galvanizing industrial coating is utilized in virtually every
industry where iron and steel is used. The automotive and industrial steel
industries utilize galvanizing extensively.
The galvanizing process has distinct advantages over other
industrial coatings methods in that cost is low and quality easily controlled
and superior corrosion resistance given to the iron or steel material.
