Galvanising reliably protects components against corrosion and extends their service life, especially in outdoor applications. The advantage lies in cost-efficient protection, while the drawback is lower abrasion resistance compared to harder processes. ZIMM recommends galvanising when corrosion protection with high cost efficiency is the primary requirement.
