America has a corrosion
problem. And galvanization is the best choice in many instances.
This lively two-hour webinar is given by the industry experts in Hot-Dip
Galvanization, The American Galvanizers Association (AGA).
Hot-dip galvanizing (HDG)
offers many advantages relative to other corrosion protection systems. HDG
offers both barrier protection of the substrate and cathodic protection. No
paint system can do that. Unlike paint, HDG is actually THICKER at edges and
corners, where paint systems are most susceptible to failure. And HDG can
protect nooks and crannies that paint just can’t get to.
Additionally, HDG is
UV-resistant and is extremely durable. When applied to steel, HDG is
actually harder than the steel substrate that it protects. Oh yes, let’s
not forget that HDG provides immediate protection when it comes out the vat.
There’s no need for the extended “curing” period required by many
coating systems before the coated component can be placed into service.
In this course, you’ll learn the mechanisms of steel corrosion and how HDG
protects steel by providing both barrier and cathodic protection. We’ll
discuss the steps involved in HDG and how to prepare your assembly for HDG
application. The course also looks at other methods for applying zinc to
metallic components and how these alternate methods compare to HDG in both
application and performance. Finally, we’ll examine the superior
durability and protection afforded by a duplex system, which contains a HDG
base combined with a topcoat paint system.
This is state-of-the-art
information from AGA, the industry's trade organization and is presented by
the Association's Executive Director and Marketing Manager.
Those
attending this two-hour live web based seminar will learn:
- Recognize
the corrosion issues confronting the United States
- Describe
how zinc coatings, specifically hot-dip galvanizing, can protect
against steel corrosion
- Incorporate
sound corrosion protection into the design of steel products that can
significantly decrease maintenance costs over the life of a structure
