Surface Treatment of Steel Grating

Steel grating undergoes various surface treatments to enhance its durability and resistance to environmental elements. The primary methods include hot dip galvanizing and painting. These surface treatments not only extend the lifespan of steel grating but also ensure its performance in diverse applications, from industrial environments to architectural designs.

  • Hot Dip Galvanizing: This process is typically performed post-edge wrapping, where the grating is submerged in molten zinc. For load-bearing bars with a thickness of at least 5mm, the average zinc layer weight after galvanizing is not less than 610g/m². For bars less than 5mm thick, this weight is not less than 460g/m². The quality of the galvanizing and the requirements comply with GB/T 13912 standards. Hot dip galvanizing adds a significant layer of protection against corrosion, making the steel grating suitable for a range of environmental conditions.
  • Painting: Steel grating can also be coated with a protective layer through spraying, brushing, or dipping. This method is used to add an additional layer of protection against various elements and to provide aesthetic appeal to the grating.
  • Service Life and Corrosion Resistance: The service life of hot dip galvanized steel grating is influenced by the thickness of the zinc coating, which is typically around 100 micrometers. In various environmental conditions, this coating significantly extends the product’s lifespan. Moreover, the zinc layer offers resistance to acid and alkali corrosion within a pH range of 6 to 12.5. A stable protective film forms on the zinc surface, enhancing the grating’s anti-corrosive properties.
