Hot dip galvanizing is the process of applying a zinc coating to fabricated steel structures and parts by immersing them in a molten zinc bath, creating a metallurgical bond to the steel.The galvanized coating provides both barrier and cathodic protection against corrosion.ot dip galvanizing is the process of applying a zinc coating to fabricated steel structures and parts by immersing them in a molten zinc bath, creating a metallurgical bond to the steel.
This coating is usually measured as thickness or as coating mass in grams per square meter and ranges from a minimum of about 100 g/m2 upwards, with an average around 175 g/m2. ASTM A 123 is the specification for Hot Dip Galvanizing. This specification covers the standard requirements for hot-dip galvanized zinc coatings on iron and steel products made from rolled pressed and forged shapes, castings, plates, bars, and strips.
