About Zinc Plating
Zinc plating is an effective solution for protecting metal surfaces from corrosion and oxidation. It forms a durable barrier that shields the underlying metal while acting as a sacrificial anode. Even if the zinc layer is scratched or damaged, it protects the base material by corroding in its place. This process ensures long-term durability without compromising the strength or surface quality of the substrate.
At Consolidated Metal Technologies (CMT), we deliver zinc plating solutions that adhere to the highest industry standards, including ASTM B633. Our expertise ensures excellent corrosion resistance and enhanced durability for various applications.
