Galvanized Fasteners: Process and Performance Benefits
Keywords: Galvanized Screws, FastenersGalvanized screws and other fasteners get their protective coating through hot-dip galvanizing or electro-galvanizing. The zinc layer not only provides a physical barrier but also offers cathodic protection—if the coating is scratched, the zinc sacrificially corrodes to protect the steel. This makes galvanized products exceptionally durable for outdoor and industrial use, offering a cost-effective solution for long-term corrosion protection.
