Galvanised steel window reinforcement

The science of galvanisation

Steel corrodes electrochemically when exposed to moisture and oxygen in air, causing it to rust. 

Galvanising applies a layer of zinc to each face of the steel, which stops rust forming on the surface by creating both a physical barrier from the elements and also providing electrochemical corrosion protection for bare steel exposed by small nicks and scratches.

The thicker the coating of zinc on a steel reinforcement, the longer its service life. 

Galvanised steel reinforcement specifications

Most of the galvanised steel we supply for applications in the window and door industry will range from anything from a Z140 coating up to a Z275 coating – although ultimately we can supply product to whatever specification our customers want

Transparent and accredited supply
