Advantages and disadvantages of hot-dip galvanizing

 

Advantages strong corrosion resistance: hot-dip galvanizing has excellent corrosion resistance, can remain stable for a long time in the atmosphere, water, soil and other media, suitable for a variety of strong acids, alkalis, fog and other strong corrosive environment.

 

Uniform plating: hot-dip galvanizing has uniform plating, strong adhesion and long service life.

 

Good protective performance: zinc coating belongs to the anodic coating, can effectively prevent the corrosion of steel, its protective performance is closely related to the thickness of the coating.

 

Wide range of applications: hot-dip galvanizing is widely used in security grids, transmission towers, communication towers, highway guardrails and other outdoor metal structure facilities.

 

Disadvantages Higher cost: Compared with electro-galvanizing, hot-dip galvanizing is more costly.

 

Surface smoothness: The surface of hot-dip galvanizing is not as smooth as electro-galvanizing, which may affect some application scenarios with higher surface requirements.
