Many factors will determine the ‘quality’ of the galvanizing such a temperature and the state and condition of the galvanising tanks and chemical composition of the steel from the mill. Products which have been galvanized will also have ‘vent’ holes to allow the gas to escape in the tanks, this is necessary and will not in any way reduce the corrosion resistance of the final product.
