LOL Galvanised Steel and Zinc separately? I wonder what they believe the difference is.
- swsh 8y agoThe difference between zinc plated fasteners and hot dip galvanised fasteners is actually quite significant. Zinc is usually around the 20micron thickness possibly less, whilst galvanised is usually >60micron usually quite a bit more. The process for applying the coatings as well as the end use of fasteners with the two coatings is also quite different.
- inferiorhuman 8y ago> The difference between zinc plated fasteners and hot dip galvanised fasteners is actually quite significant Yeah, but those aren't listed under coatings. They're listed under materials. And they certainly don't list the same variety of zinc coatings you could find at McMaster-Carr.
