Surface Preparation
Thorough cleaning is
necessary as zinc will
only adhere to clean
steel
Degreasing – removes
dirt, oils, organic residue
Pickling – removes mill
scale and oxides
Fluxing – Mild cleaning,
provides protective layer

Galvanizing
Steel immersed in bath
of molten zinc (~830 F)
>98% pure zinc, up to
2% additives (Al, Bi,
Ni)
Zinc reacts with iron in
the steel to form
coating
Reaction is complete
when steel reaches
bath temperature

Inspection
Steel is inspected after
galvanizing to verify
conformance to specs
Visual inspection to
identify any surface
defects

quality/appearance of
the weld
Cleanliness
Flux and slag must be
removed by fabricator
Weld Rod Chemistry
As similar to steel
chemistry as possible
Silicon acts as catalyst

Electronic gauges are easiest and most accurate

Touch-Up & Repair
ASTM A780 identifies
acceptable forms
Zinc-based solder
Zinc-rich paint (brush
on only!)
Zinc-spray (metallizing)
Main ASTM standards
A123, A153, A767 give
restrictions on size

Proper Storage & HandlingPromote free flowing air
around parts
Stack with wood spacers
to avoid nesting
Avoid collection of
moisture
Stack at angles
Avoid stacking on the
ground where
vegetation and dew are
found

Why Coat Galvanized Steel?
Aesthetics
Branding
Architect’s preference
Identification
Safety
Hostile Environment
Repair/Extend life of
existing HDG projects
Economic benefit
Synergistic EffectPaint/Powder provides
barrier for zinc
Zinc prevents underfilm
corrosion of top
coatings
Minimizes paint peeling
Paint/Powder coating &
HDG provide 1.5x –
2.5x sum of the
systems
Extends maintenance
cycle of paint

HDG goes through
passivation/weathering
cycle as patina develops
Identifying surface

Communication amongst all parties is key
Following best design practices from the
specifications leads to best quality coatings
Inspection is simple focusing mostly on
coating appearance and thickness
Duplex systems are another area for
communication and surface preparation is
most important to success
