Galvinized Corrugated Metal
What is Galvanizing?
Galvanizing is basically a plain carbon steel sheet coated in a galvanizing process that applies a barrier of zinc to insulate it from the elements. Most of the roofing and siding products seen today and for many years past, have made in the galvanized finish. This coating on the steel has been the choice for years and has a reputation as a rugged product that can and will last for unlimited time on a structure. A normal steel sheet will rust almost immediately, but galvanizing will protect the steel. Once galvanized by eltro-coated and, hot-dipped process this product surface produces a silvery look or spangled finish. As a standard several of our industrial type siding, roofing, decking, panels and accessories are made in galvanized steel. The galvanized sheets are coated on both sides, with a layer of zinc protecting the metal from the results of being outdoors in the weather everyday.
As with almost any product the finish will tend to change over time, this is true with a galvanized sheet. After a certain period of time, the surface will appear to have a white oxide look. When this happens the material is actually protecting itself from further damage. We stock and sell several corrugated and decking panels in either a (G-60) or (G-90) level of galvanizing. IF there is a product you see on our site that is not offered in the galvanized finish, please inquire as almost any panel profile can be made in the galvanized. Our most popular galvanized sheet, would be the (2-1/2" x ½") corrugated we offer or the very common B-Deck panel, which out both inexpensive panels that can solve or be applied in any application.
