What is simple galvanization?
It is a type of metal coating created through the process of galvanizing. In this process, metals such as iron or steel are immersed in a bath of molten zinc to form a thin layer of zinc on the surface of the metal.
Simple galvanizing is a protective coating that protects metal from rust and corrosion. It also has specific physical and chemical properties that make it suitable for use in various industries.
Plain galvanizing is commonly used in the following industries:
- Construction
- Automotive
- Industrial equipment
- Home appliances
Simple galvanizing has the following advantages:
- Protection against rust and corrosion
- Increased resistance to abrasion and impact
- Reducing maintenance and repair costs
- Extending product lifespan
But simple galvanizing also has disadvantages, such as:
- Sensitivity to corrosion in water and salt
- Lack of resistance to high heat
- Lack of resistance to chemicals
Overall, simple galvanizing is an effective protective coating used in various industries, but it should be noted that it also has limitations.
What are the uses of galvanized sheet?
Galvanized sheet is one of the most widely used steel sheets, and the most important feature of this sheet is its exemplary resistance to corrosion and rust; it is interesting to know that by performing the galvanization process, the useful life of steel sheets increases by up to 50 years. Also, the inspection and technical examination of galvanized sheets is much simpler than other sheets; as a result, the technical reliability of these sheets is greater than other steel sheets.
Galvanized sheets are a type of steel sheet that has a very high resistance to corrosion and rust, as a result, this type of sheet is used more in areas with high humidity or in hazardous situations. For example, galvanized sheet is widely used in the construction of kitchen cabinets or air conditioning ducts and cooling ducts. The following are other uses of galvanized sheet:
- Construction of various types of stationary or mobile tanks, such as tanker tanks.
- Construction of ceilings and bodies of large halls or industrial and non-industrial sheds.
- Manufacturing various kitchen equipment, such as refrigerators or washing machines.
- Manufacturing of all types of urban or industrial electrical panels.
- Manufacturing of various profiles, pipes and galvanized steel products.
