Galvanized carbon steel coil

Galvanized steel is carbon steel coated with zinc. The most common galvanizing method is the hot-dip process. The hot dip process involves immersing carbon steel in a molten zinc bath (approximately 680 degrees Fahrenheit). When the material is removed from the zinc bath and cooled, it reacts with oxygen in the air. This reaction causes zinc to become part of the steel (iron-zinc alloy bond). The new surface finish seems to have a crystalline finish or a bright finish.
