Galvanization

sIn the Hot Dip Galvanization process, the product is dipped at 900 Degrees fahrenheit in a tub of zinc which penetrates the surface of the metal, creating a barrier against rust. This is a "rough to the touch" finish. When new it appears as a shiny silver, but over time dulls to a calm grey. This is also the most durable finish, resistant to heavy ware.We suggest this finish for uses on or near a coastline, and in locations where the product will experience a high-moisture environment. It is suggested to be painted over for both an extra layer of protection, and to cover imperfections created during the finish process.
