Frequently Asked Questions
1. What Is Galvanized Steel?
Galvanized Steel Is Steel That Is Protected From Corrosion By Covering The Surface Of The Steel With A Layer Of Zinc (Usually By The Hot-Dip Galvanizing Process). The Zinc Layer Forms A Protective Film, Which Can Effectively Extend The Service Life Of Steel, Especially For Environments Requiring Strong Corrosion Resistance.
3. What Are The Classifications Of Galvanized Steel?
Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel: The Steel Is Immersed In Molten Zinc Liquid To Form A Thicker Zinc Layer, Which Is Suitable For Environments With High Corrosion Resistance Requirements.
Electrogalvanized Steel: Zinc Is Plated On The Surface Of The Steel By Electrolysis, And The Zinc Layer Is Thinner, Which Is Suitable For General Corrosive Environments.
5. What Are The Surface Treatment Requirements For Galvanized Steel?
Surface Cleaning: Before Galvanizing, The Steel Surface Needs To Remove Impurities Such As Oil, Oxides, Etc. To Ensure The Adhesion Of The Galvanized Layer.
Surface Finish: The Surface Is Required To Be Flat And Smooth, Without Obvious Zinc Layer Defects, To Ensure Appearance And Corrosion Resistance.
Adhesion: The Galvanized Layer Should Be Firmly Attached And Not Easy To Fall Off.
7. Can Galvanized Steel Be Processed And Welded?
Cutting And Processing: The Galvanized Layer Will Be Exposed During Processing, Which May Cause Local Corrosion, So Protective Measures Should Be Taken.
Welding: The Galvanized Layer Will Be Damaged During Welding, So Subsequent Protection Should Be Carried Out In The Welding Area To Avoid Corrosion.
9. How To Maintain Galvanized Steel?
Clean The Surface: Regularly Remove Dust And Impurities From The Surface To Avoid Accumulation Of Pollutants.
Repair The Zinc Layer: If The Zinc Coating Is Damaged, It Should Be Repaired In Time To Prevent Corrosion.
Avoid Contact With Corrosive Substances: Avoid Prolonged Contact With Corrosive Chemicals Such As Acids And Alkalis.
11. How To Place An Order?
Browse And Select The Galvanized Steel Products You Need On The Website. Fill In The Detailed Order Information And Submit The Order. Our Sales Team Will Confirm The Order With You Within 24 Hours And Provide Relevant Payment Information.
2. What Are The Advantages Of Galvanized Steel?
Strong Corrosion Resistance: Galvanized Layer Effectively Prevents Oxygen, Moisture And Steel Contact, Reduce The Possibility Of Rust.
Extended Service Life: Compared To Ungalvanized Steel, Galvanized Steel Has A Longer Service Life In Harsh Environments.
Low Maintenance Cost: Due To Corrosion Resistance, The Maintenance Cost Of Galvanized Steel Is Relatively Low.
Wide Range Of Application: Suitable For Construction, Automobile, Home Appliances And Other Industries.
4. How To Choose The Right Galvanized Steel?
Use Environment: If It Needs To Withstand Extreme Weather Or Chemical Corrosion, Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel Should Be Selected.
Corrosion Resistance Requirements: If The Corrosive Environment Is Mild, Electro-Galvanized Steel May Be Sufficient.
Steel Specifications: Appropriate Steel Specifications, Such As Thickness, Width, Etc., Need To Be Selected According To The Project Or Production Requirements.
6. How Long Does Galvanized Steel Last?
Zinc Layer Thickness: Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel Has A Thicker Zinc Layer And Can Last 30 Years Or More.
Environmental Conditions: In Marine Environments Or Highly Chemically Corrosive Environments, The Lifespan Of Galvanized Steel May Be Shortened.
Maintenance: Regular Inspection And Maintenance Can Extend Its Service Life.
8. What Should Be Paid Attention To When Transporting And Storing Galvanized Steel?
Moisture-Proof And Moisture-Proof: Galvanized Steel Should Be Stored In A Dry And Ventilated Environment To Avoid Moisture Causing Damage To The Zinc Layer.
Stacking Method: Avoid Heavy Objects On Galvanized Steel To Avoid Deformation.
Protective Packaging: During Transportation, Use Appropriate Packaging Protection Materials To Prevent The Galvanized Layer From Being Scratched Or Damaged.
