Zinc Plating

zinc-largeZinc plating materials are characterized by a dull gray color with a matte finish but can achieve a bluish-white metal appearance when accompanied by clear chromate. Zinc is the best ally of steel to combat corrosion. The relatively low cost, protection, and attractive appearance of zinc plating makes it a popular coating for nuts, bolts, washers, automotive components, and even an effective undercoat for paints. Jamestown Electro Plating offers Trivalent Clear Chromate versus the environmentally unfriendly Hexavalent Chromate frequently found in the plating industry.
