WHAT IS GALVANIZED STEEL?
In the manufacturing industry (including both metal stamping and metal spinning) galvanized commonly refers to galvanized steel. Galvanized steel is regular steel sheets that have been coated in zinc to make them corrosion resistant. Regular steel is made of iron which will rust when exposed to moisture, either in the form of rain or ambient humidity. Over time rust will corrode a steel part to the point of failure.
To prevent steel parts from rusting there are two options:
As with most decisions in manufacturing, both of these options are primarily evaluated in terms of cost.
Different Surface:
Galvanizing is a zinc coating applied to sheets of steel through a process called “continuous hot-dip,” in which steel sheet passes through a bath of molten zinc. The liquid zinc bonds to the iron in the steel forming a protective layer on both sides of the sheet. The steel sheet can then be spun into a finished part because the zinc coating does not flake or peel off during the metal spinning process. The finished part resists corrosion without any additional or secondary painting or coating, making galvanized spinnings the most economical process for protecting steel from corrosion.
Galvanized steel is used extensively across a wide range of industries due to its many advantageous properties,
which include:

1. What is the galvanized sheet metal used for?
Modern steel frame buildings use galvanized steel. Galvanized steel makes balconies, verandas, staircases, ladders, and walkways. Galvanized metal is best for outdoor projects.
2. Where is a galvanized sheet used?
When sheet metal, such as steel, has been galvanized, it can be used for many construction purposes, including building frames, awnings, industrial walkways, and fences.
3. What is galvanized sheet metal made of?
Galvanized steel is zinc-coated carbon steel. The hot-dip process is the most widely used method of zinc coating. The carbon steel is immersed in a molten zinc bath during the hot-dip process.
