This helps stop water from getting in, preventing leaks and rust. Keeping metal roofs and walls strong and lasting a long time is important.
In mechanical galvanization, machines coat screws with zinc using methods such as tumbling or centrifuging. This coating provides superior corrosion resistance compared to traditional zinc plating. The process of mechanical galvanization ensures that the coating on screws is uniform. This helps the screws last longer when used outdoors or in corrosive environments.
