Introduction to Hot Dip Galvanized Products
Hot Dip Galvanized Finish:
Hot dip galvanizing is a form of galvanization. It is the technology
of coating by passing the product through a molten bath of zinc at
high temperature. The process of hot dip galvanizing results in a
metallurgical bond between zinc and steel with a series of distinct
iron zinc alloys. The hot dip zinc coating produces a much thicker,
durable coating which prevents corrosion of the protected product by
forming a physical barrier and by acting as a sacrificial anode if this
barrier is damaged.
Application Process:
The product is skimmed (to remove surface oils), run through an acid
wash, water washed, run through a dip fluxing solvent (to enhance
the coating adhesion), dry pre-heated (typically 120°C to 180°C),
hot dip galvanized (typically 450°C to 480°C), water cooled and then
passivated.
