About the material

Electrogalvanized steel carries a zinc coating deposited electrolytically rather than by hot dipping. The process applies zinc at room temperature, so the coating is thinner and far more uniform than a hot-dip coating, and the underlying cold-rolled surface is preserved.

The result is a smooth, flat sheet that paints well and forms without the spangle or coating build-up associated with hot-dip material.

The trade-off is coating weight. An electrolytic coating is light, so the corrosion protection it offers is correspondingly limited compared with hot-dip galvanized.

It suits interior, concealed and painted work where surface quality and formability matter more than long exterior exposure.
