Uses of Galvanized Iron/Steel in Various Industrial Applications

The galvanized iron is manufactured by precise addition of a coating or layer of zinc coating to iron, which effectively prevent the process of rusting or corrosion. For the purpose of galvanization of iron or steel at large scale, the ultra-modern hot-dip galvanization technology is used in various industrial establishments. By immersing the large blocks of iron or steel metal in a bath of molten zinc, the galvanization of iron or steel is done at a temperature of around 840 °F at large industrial scale.  

The galvanized iron or steel is often needs in applications where the resistance against corrosion is one of the primary parameters without the cost of use of stainless steel or iron. The process of galvanization helps to protect the iron or stainless steel, by effectively acting as an inactive barrier between the iron or steel and atmosphere. In addition to this, the galvanized iron or steel is highly demanded in applications that requires exposure of the metal at extremely high temperature of 200 °C. 

It is often recommended not to use galvanized iron for the applications that requires the metal to be exposed to temperature above 392 °F as it will cause peeling of zinc coating at the inter metallic layer. For the purpose of enhancing the resistance against corrosion of the exterior parts of cars, bikes or other automobiles, the electro-galvanized sheet of iron or steel is used in different automobile industries.  The addition of zinc to the iron or steel in electro-galvanization is effectively done through the process of electroplating through a zinc anode and steel/iron conductor. In various cold-water plumbing systems in early, the cast iron and lead piping are replaced with galvanized piping systems. 

Due to the process of galvanization, the galvanized piping systems effectively rust from the inside out.  This causes the water pressure problems and eventual pipe failure. To reduce such problems, the galvanized piping systems are effectively replaced. Post world war, the galvanized piping systems are used for outdoor applications, due to their excellent mechanical strength. Apart from this, the galvanized piping systems are extremely demanded drinking water. 

One of the modern day applications of the galvanized iron strip is that it is used for effective earthing purposes. GI Earthing Strips, GI Flats, Hot Dip Galvanized Strips, Galvanized Channel, GI Plates, GI Sheets, are some of the popular galvanized iron/steel. The manufacturers have been able to meet the bulk demands of galvanized iron strips, due to their dedicated workforce, large manufacturing capacity and excellent storage facilities. 

 

Quality focused approaches are followed by the manufacturers, ensures that the quality of GI strips is never compromised. For timely delivery of GI strip at the clients’ end, the manufacturers have developed a wide distribution network. For purchase of different types of galvanized iron strip of different sizes and dimensions, the clients can contact reputed GI Strip Manufacturer in Delhi.
