Product Description
Galvanized sheets are steel or iron sheets that have been coated with a film of zinc for them to be protected from getting rusted. They are made by dipping the sheets into molten zinc and producing very strong and durable coating.
The properties of these sheets encompass high tensile strength, formability, and the ability to endure both mechanical damage and atmospheric exposure without degrading.
Some of the advantages of using galvanized sheets include long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion, cost-effectiveness compared to other protective coatings, strong and durable barrier for a variety of applications (such as in construction, automotive, and industrial sectors), and being environmentally friendly due to the recyclability of steel and zinc.
