This article was written by KTA’s Tom Neal & Doug Reardon Introduction – The controls required for the hot-dip galvanizing process are described in Topic 1 of this series.  In addition to monitoring the galvanizing process, the thickness or weight of the galvanizing must be determined to verify that it complies with the requirements of […]

Introduction – Galvanizing is the application of a zinc coating to iron and steel by the hot dipping process. The process involves the dipping of both fabricated and unfabricated pieces into hot molten zinc, usually about 840° F (449°C).  Quality galvanizing starts before the item is dipped into the molten zinc and in some cases
