Description
Hot-dipped galvanizing is used to help steel resist rust, preserve its appearance, or last longer in outdoor situations and other harsh environments. Applying a thin layer of zinc directly onto steel gives the metal enhanced corrosion protection. This helps protect the quality and performance of the steel, lengthening the life of parts and products.
Advantages
1. Protection: Galvanised coating is considered as one of the toughest coatings available in the market. It offers protection offers resistance from mechanical damage that may happen during transit or erection of the structure. Additionally, it protects steel from rust and corrosion. Adding into it, it is suitable for all weather conditions, so weather change does not affect the steel.
2.Durability: Since it protects steel from rust, corrosion, and weather conditions, chances of steel getting damaged are lesser. This results in longer life span.
3.Low-maintenance: Galvanised steel parts and structures need low maintenance. As a result, your efforts on maintenance are saved.
4.Cost-efficient: The initial cost of galvanized steel may be high. However, you save on maintenance and repair cost as it is a low-maintenance product. Additionally, coating offers durability. Therefore, it turns out to be cost effective in longer run.
