Galvanized materials are coated with a layer of zinc and are highly corrosion-resistant. Read our blog articles to learn about the versatility and vast advantages of using galvanized products in your projects.
In this article: The robust corrosion resistance of galvanized steel makes it the perfect choice for everything from solar panels to DOT projects. However, finding adhesives for galvanized steel can be challenging, as it’s often difficult to find ones that will last in the long run. This does not mean that it’s impossible, though. In […]
In this article: You may have heard of PFAS, which are also referred to as “forever chemicals.” They’ve earned this nickname because they don’t naturally break down, which makes it very difficult to recycle them. PFAS are found in a variety of products—including cookware. But are PFAS in galvanized steel? We explore the science behind […]
In this article: When you’re planning a project that needs to stand the test of time, rust is your enemy. Corrosion can eat into your venture, compromising structural integrity and requiring extensive maintenance or replacement. There are different types of steel corrosion, and each one behaves a bit differently. In this blog, we’ll take a […]
You may already understand the incredible corrosion-resistant benefits of galvanized steel, but have you wondered how it performs in hostile weather? Galvanized steel in extreme temperatures doesn’t lose its protective qualities, something that makes it ideal for projects ranging from buildings to bridges. This is particularly important in the context of the overall effect of […]
In this article: When building a structure that will be exposed to moisture—especially in marine environments—durability is everything. You want to eliminate any long-term threats to your structure’s integrity, and that often means considering galvanic corrosion. In this article, we’ll explore the question ‘What is galvanic corrosion?’ providing a concrete answer that will help you, whether […]
In this article: Soldering (a method used to connect metal materials together) is useful when building with a mix of durable materials. That is why many construction managers and builders will wonder, “Can you solder galvanized steel?” The short answer is yes, but it is important to understand what you’re doing before you begin. Galvanized […]
Steel angles are L-shaped strips of carbon steel that add structural support to construction projects. Galvanized angles are a popular choice and there are many different galvanized steel angle sizes. Understanding the different sizes of steel angles and when to use them is important if you want your buildings to stand the test of time. What […]
