Item | Details |
Galvanizing Process | An advanced hot - dip galvanizing method is adopted. |
Characteristics of Zinc Coating | A thick and uniform zinc layer is formed on the surface of the steel. |
Function of the Coating | It serves as a powerful anti - corrosion barrier, protecting the steel from rusting due to moisture and environmental factors, and enhancing durability. |
Sacrificial Anode Principle | The zinc layer acts as a sacrificial anode, corroding preferentially to the steel, further safeguarding the underlying material. |
Application Scenarios | Suitable for outdoor applications, such as construction projects exposed to the elements throughout the year. |
Industry | Applications | Advantages | Specific Application Scenarios |
Construction | Roofing, siding, structural components | Corrosion - resistant for long - lasting building exteriors | In a coastal area, galvanized steel strips are used for roofing a beachfront house. The strips' corrosion resistance protects against the salty sea air, ensuring the roof's longevity. For a multi - story commercial building, they are used in structural components like beams, providing strength and durability. |
Automotive | Manufacturing of car bodies, doors, internal components | Easy to form into different shapes and sizes, adaptable to complex design requirements | In the production of a modern SUV, galvanized steel strips are used to form the car body. Their malleability allows for the creation of smooth curves and sharp angles, meeting the vehicle's design aesthetics. For car doors, the strips provide both strength and corrosion resistance. |
Packaging | Making sturdy containers, reinforcement for cardboard boxes | Ensure safe transportation of goods | A food - packaging company uses galvanized steel strips to reinforce the corners of cardboard boxes. This prevents the boxes from collapsing during transportation, protecting the food products inside. A company that ships heavy machinery uses galvanized steel containers made from these strips to safeguard the machinery during transit. |
