COMPANY GALVANIZING PAINTING SHOT BLASTING SERVICES QUALITY ENVIRONMENT WHERE WE ARE GUIDELINES FOR GALVANIZING home/ Metal Zinc / Galvanizing Galvanizing Hot dip galvanizing offers steel extremely effective protection against corrosion and rust formation, in fact through a metallurgical reaction a layer of shock-resistant and perfectly continuous intermetallic iron-zinc alloy is created which prevents the products from coming into contact with the atmosphere. In particular, thanks to the hot galvanizing process, which consists in immersing the steel product in a bath of molten ZINC at about 450 ° C, a double protection is obtained: physical and electrochemical; the first is due to the interposition of Zn between the surface of the steel and the atmosphere, the second is due to the potential difference between the two metals, Zn is sacrificed, which corrodes, safeguarding the steel. The dimensions of the galvanizing tank of MetalZinco are: length 12.50 m - width 1.50 m - depth 3.20 m FAQ Can galvanized material be painted? All the galvanized material can be painted using specific paints for the application on the galvanizing, however to obtain excellent results the surface of the product must be pre-treated with specific chemical substances. Metalzinco has specialized in this type of treatment. What is the fire resistance of galvanized steel? The galvanizing does not affect the fire resistance of the steel, the REI classification of the steel does not change after the hot dip galvanizing process. Is it possible to avoid the galvanizing of parts present on the product to be galvanized? To avoid galvanizing threads or surface portions, special products can be used to protect the product in the parts where galvanizing is not necessary (eg heat-resistant silicone).
