Galvanizing is one of the widely used methods for protecting metals from corrosion. It involves applying a thin zinc coating to a thicker base metal like iron metal. The process helps to shield the metal from the surrounding environment. When a metal undergoes galvanization, it does not experience any corrosion. However, without the zinc coating, the metal remains exposed to the elements and potentially oxidizes and corrodes faster. There are several ways of galvanizing metals, including hot-dipped galvanization and pre-galvanizing.
Pre-galvanizing, also called mill galvanizing, is another galvanizing process close to ho-dipped galvanizing. However, this process occurs at the very first stage of production. The process takes place at steel mills that have a specific shape. Pre-galvanizing involves a few steps of hot-dip galvanizing, like cleaning the surface, hot zinc bathing, and recoiling.
