What are the advantages of galvanising?
The zinc coating bonds to the metal creating an exceptionally long lasting finish. The three intermetallic layers that form during the galvanizing process are all harder than the substrate steel and have excellent abrasion resistance. The thicknesses (weights) of coatings formed are regular, predictable and simply specified. Galvanizing is one of the few coatings which is completely defined by a British Standard (BS EN ISO 1461).
