What is Galvanizing Process?
The galvanizing process is a method used to protect steel and iron from corrosion by applying a protective layer of zinc to the surface of the metal. This process is known as "hot-dip galvanizing" and involves several steps:
Ladder Type Cable Trays
Perforated Type Cable Trays
Hot-dip galvanizing is widely used in various industries, particularly in construction, to protect steel structures and components from corrosion. The zinc coating acts as a sacrificial layer, corroding in preference to the underlying steel or iron, thus extending the lifespan of the metal and reducing maintenance requirements.
It's important to note that there are other methods of galvanizing as well, such as electro-galvanizing, which uses an electrolytic process to deposit zinc onto the metal surface, and mechanical galvanizing, which involves tumbling the metal with zinc powder and glass beads to achieve a zinc coating. These methods are used for different applications and offer varying levels of protection.
