Galvanizing

Hot-dip galvanizing is the process of dipping fabricated steel into a kettle or vat containing molten zinc at a temperature around 860° F (460° C ). While the steel is immersed, the iron in the steel metallurgically reacts with the molten zinc to form a tightly-bonded allow coating that provides superior corrosion protection to steel.
