Only when the surface of the material has been cleaned can hot dip galvanizing take place. If there are any contaminants left on the steel, the steel will not galvanize fully. The steel fabrications are then ‘dipped’ in a molten bath of zinc that is heated to approximately 450°c. Once hot dip galvanizing has taken place the zinc is metallurgically bonded to the steel substrate producing a protective coating. At this point the steel has been protected from corrosion and it is ready for the end user. If the material was painted, there would be additional drying time required. However, when hot dip galvanizing steel, there are no such delays. Hot dip galvanizing also repairs minor damage, is environmentally sustainable, has good impact and abrasion resistance and provides a maintenance-free life for up to 40 years or more.
